TRIPLE S Posted October 19, 2002 if your talking about personality it has to be ali, he:1.was articulate 2.had chrasima 3. Master craftsmen of the sport 4.Known world wide 5. Politically involved in the racial difficulties in the 60's 6.Overcame all sorts of obstacles through out his career, whether it be political frictions with the government or physical incapabilities (ali v foreman). Be real no other sports star ever came close to his lifetime achievements.J Robinson is hardly known outside America (all due respect to his achievements with the dodgers). And Jordan (are you serious?)the brother had serious game but what is the difference between him and say Oscar Robertson....He Was A Walking Advertisement, name the extradorinary history defining moments he had outside basketball(stop thinking)? Almost next to nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
