herbert muhammad ran ali's business, and while he would let king promote,
he never let king take the liberties with ali that king did other fighters.
king wanted ali to himself, but never could quite get it done. one reason i
hate king is, after ali fought holmes, ali had to sue king for iirc, about a
million dollars. king went around herbert, using a guy that had been
friendly with the ali camp, and got ali to sign a release for, iirc again,
100,000 dollars. the guy took the money in a briefcase to ali's home, and
ali foolishly took the bait. as we have seen, king has no shame at all, and
fucked ali out of a bunch of money. i have read that king showed up when ali
fought berbick, wanting some money, and got the shit beat out of him for his
trouble. too bad that isn't available on tape, it couldn't have happened to
a nicer guy.

It's the size of the fight in the dog!
((Uness...it's a big dog with a lot of fight. Than you're screwed))
