RIP Ali.

I remember watching the Thrilla in Manila as a little kid, as well as the Leon Spinks a few years later. Then watching him get beat down by Larry Holmes really broke my heart. Ali would have killed Holmes if he was in his prime.
Loved Howard Cosell no matter what he did. Boxing, MNF, Battle of the Network Stars, didn't matter. He was on of the greatest sportscasters ever.
