Since this is not an RIP thread I will weigh in. When his RIP thread comes about, I will abstain out of respect for the dead.
I will never deny that he had talent, skill and determination. BUT, he was a draft dodger that was coddled and favored by the news media and his industry. He got wins that he did NOT deserve, notably the Norton fight of May '75. He was a motor mouth of maximum proportions. I wouldn't give fifteen cents for the guy.
That said, I hate seeing him in the shape he's been in the last several years. I would wish that on no one.
