Say Brother; A Day with Muhammad Ali; 719

I. Will be proud to do you the right. My purpose was to free and help my people black people. My purpose do all are can to be a rebel. My purpose is to be big famous rich and still not Uncle Tom. So this is my purpose. I'm have because I found my purpose was to be a big black giant still with his own people. Did black John's still represent him. Look at my life. I'm cocky I'm proud to say what I want to say I don't care about nobody I have no white color and all these camels. Because. Of that.

One but I'm here mainly because of Ms Lewis here in this room. I've been with sort of I knew this place is so big and so nice and. Mainly we are here to draw some people. Feel the seeds to help her to keep his cool as he the reason I'm in the fight I am today is because there's a box in a school in over Kentucky called Columbia deal and this is why I stayed so certain it could condition and the people the children in this area I'll feel lucky to have this lady here. Training these people of ours and different things and it would be terrible to see something like this fall because many great champions come out of places like yours all the superstars they have to start somewhere. As an absolute go somebody else is going to have to take over and it's good to have this branch of this type School of this part of the country so it's a worthy cause

and I would just feel guilty vile and do nothing to help it. Salaam coming here free of charge. I've been a rain and I'm free of charge and usually of this type of work. We don't go under a hundred and hundred of dollars of his just for if I had to be paid for my time and work tonight the $150000 easy. Plus the whole deal his basis for the victims people but I am here of my own to experience to help this cause. We just appeal all the people to just get a few thousand by one ticket. Plus they'll be watching while in their lifetime the greatest fighter of all time. I've got to see a little smile but it's the truth. We've got her greatest fight of all time in his life with the gloves on and action can come on the obit for the price difference. I'm not really going to do that.

Where you are affecting you like my 6 year old. Are you going what are you going to anyhow because. It sounds like you'll say you're not really going to hit them are you. Know you see a movie Rocky you know you know where you know you hear if you are if you were going with the guy that builded young going up against I know you guys over confident guy as a partner of course I knew not as dumb as you look at it. It is possible these guys the look of a reputation like wider holiday whenever they came in the city is always with young guns drawn. This is the guys break watch. I am sitting here with the bravest man in the world running Drinkwater tomorrow night about this time as a matter of fact is going to be fighting Muhammad Ali and the benefit from the Lower School. I got to ask Iranian nervous. Oh.

No why not really. I mean this guy has got more hype coming around him than anybody I've ever heard of in sports and you're fighting them in a benefit albeit at an exhibition. But you know it's an exhibition in a sense where it's rounds it was 15 rounds up the pace myself. Oh but this is only two hours so my goal to go all I can and you know you might be surprised. And I'm like a celebrity. Our Sports Lead Cadillac Man which is all well and good played against my kind of annoying. Obviously none of us are greatest. It's just something we're like you want to get in there and we'll find it. I always got nervous like a funny guy four feet tall. Yeah I'll be nervous. Just play me like you really want to make sure people realize that you are in fact a factional fighter Ronnie turn from nine months ago always had nine fights seven knockouts one guy was six feet five two hundred and twenty

pounds. How do you think I'm going to treat you like refusing to take you serious. I hope you play so I can take you a shot in the side it will have to tell him a couple of around 80. Or 90. S. S.

S. S. S. S. S. S. I am who I am. T will probably come out and play

with everybody just you know because he is the greatest he can do whatever he wants to but only when it's an exhibition is for a good cause. Yeah it's for real because when you try to be a nice the whole thing but I also want to show him why I am you know like I don't want to be a fix. If there was a fix even in there I want to go in and be me want to be myself. I want to show I'm somewhere so almost I'm going to be a piece of bait. Did you ever have an I know you're from you're from Malden but you're trained down and down and down and Rocky Marciano somebody you model yourself after last YAML is my kind is all the time and I'm off handed but I'm always the greatest the fastest Joe Lewis was a great gentleman must be the hand. But I'm a person myself and I was nobody. Because if you analyze someone then you're trying to be like someone else. I want to know what else I want to be like myself. Understand I train my always. I'm sure my personality is different than someone else's wife try to be like him. My

personality I like to be myself and I just want to be my own man. Now Iraq was. I am. I am. I am.

Right. Now.

People are constantly into your personal life but you have to say to them take an opportunity to tell them what you really like to tell them on their own say nothing new things about me personally and all commonly they just say whatever people say it's old news. A plane blew up they killed hundreds of people. Two days is old news. We had nom all that war my problems or nobody's problems with the worst of the killing on the BS of dollars but this really is old news that they don't talk about Vietnam Watergate the other day as all you are all watching is old news. Saw a. Lot of odd bets on me as I know that I can go out of my face of three or four days it is old news. Soul problems you hear about meal whoever sold Rome talk awhile. Just let it go ahead but I keep it alive if I get involved. Fight it out.

Just to make my comments are a distinct quieted down. You were referred to as the greatest earlier today and you said you were not the greatest You were the greatest boxer. Explain what you meant by that and Islamic saying we have. Seen a lot or above means God is a great all around. But I'm the greatest box office in the history of boxing. But there's all sorts. They say Mr. Rauch No we thank you the greatest disagrees with that greatest greatest man in the world must know the names a crazed man well knows. No that's a lie. To me to Grey's man we're living as wild as de mama must virtually. But. I'm the greatest boxer in the world. I'll put emphasis on that. How much do you put. Yourself into the. World 100 temples an international rather.

Heavyweight Champion of all. Someone like. Our holy name formatted God knows. Personal Problem is our love for coming to us and searching among us finding one raising him to lead teaching in the way of truth and light. I speak not of the lovely teachable sodomized my brothers and sisters in original language which is the head of a great journalist which means Me Peace be unto you. I Salaam aleikum. I'm very very anxious to hear brother Wallace Mohammad today and I feel you are. So.

I only want to take a few minutes to say a few words. Everyone here today and throughout the world know that I have made a million fans and followers nationwide in all walks of life. Europe Africa and Chinese Japanese and Chinese people just look at me and they respect me judgment and I should always look out for people who look up to me. I know that people who've been in the sports world for 15 years when I was told I was just might

say look at one day to be married to living in California with the rest of the brothers. Now much. Of that except it was like one of the beautiful native that he has given to be born without a doubt I have a teenager and I came do it all like I really want to because I'm still a box of I'm out of this article 100 percent of my ministry a whole lot of. A lot of things I want to do it takes found this and this one needs another few little fights because I want to help things I want to do it and. This is of while I'm in the right.

Would you encourage children that are thinking about boxing to come to one of them. Why wouldn't you. Because I am one I'm one who has to evolve box and they got to where I met one ten thousand one. Of those whom someone knows when his job to get world there is to gamble. I will say use you brains go to school get education find a purpose take a trade go to college. This is for sure that you can develop that child to play football. He might go on please 24 years older than this time for me in the big leagues or is neat then life's a tragedy. But she got a promise a box for sport to play ball for sport but don't try to make the limit. Found something to handle your minds or get your briefcase and that's more for sure but just too much gambled in the box on tell me you have announced a couple of times the more that you're going to retire. Because every time you keep coming back to your opponent to throw them off guard away.

I do love to see who's in the corner who's not what is right is my right. I'm not out yet but the day that I retire I want to love. I'll just let stuff like that. He was a lifelong Ali why not fight for they will leave in a way because I'm always and I'm a quitter but I have ways of making prices go up for my money and my fights make the people appreciate it more. And they have reasons why I cannot go into all the while but what I'm very much really cautious. That's good. Man. I am.

If you really care and I am.

I am. I am. I am I

am. I am I am I am I am. I am

I am. I am. I am.
