I know i am

Hiya Burnzie.... i see you have a taste for boxing too bet your not light on your feet though

Anyway i wanted to share this with everyone cos i think its the kewwlest saying the King of boxing had to say amongst many others hehe. If you've seen the film.... King of The World or read Ali's books or know of the Sonny Liston fight you'll know what i'm talking about

And this one is dedicated to Sticky_Fingers


Clay comes out to meet Liston,
and Liston starts to retreat.
If Liston starts to retreat any further,
he'll end up in a ringside seat.
Clay swings with the left.
Clay swings with a right.
Look at young Cassius
carry the fight.
Liston keeps backing,
but there's not enough room.
It's a matter of time -
There, Clay lowers the boom.
Now Clay swings with a right.
What a beautiful swing.
And the punch raises the bear
clear out of the ring.

Liston is still rising,
and the ref wears a frown.
For he cant start counting
till Sonny comes down.
Now Liston disappears from view.
The crowd is getting frantic,
But our radar stations have picked him up.
He's somewhere over the Atlantic.
Who would have thought
when they came to the fight
that they'd witness the launching
of a human satellite
Yes, the crowd did not dream
when they laid down their money
that they would see
a total eclipse of the Sonny.
I am the G R E A T E S T


Now thats what you call music and a fight Sticky_Fingers
