Sad to think none of those people/countries exist today.
This is going to be one of those footnotes in sporting history lost to every generation other than those of us remaining that recall what a big deal the whole thing was at the time

It's too bad Ali won because losing - and losing badly - may have made the man quit boxing.

I'm of an age when certain movie stereotypes like tough-talking cigar-chewing midgets, funny stumbling drunks in evening clothes and - especially - punch drunk washed-up palookas were routinely featured in movies.

@rinkydinkydoink I'm old enough to remember when they still had a boxing tent at the local fair. Survive 3 rounds to win a prize. I never saw anyone beat the stall "champ". It's fair to say the "champ" barely knew what day it was.

Your remembrance is sad yet funny. Remember Jerry Quarry? Bruce The Mouse Strauss is still alive, though, but I don't know how or why.
