He looked good to be fair. Even if he does ‘want to be himself’, he has absolutely milked every drop out of the Ali link, which was laughable hypocrisy, but was wise as it’s got him good publicity. Not so sure the “Allahu akbar!” nonsense is wise though – Muslims aren’t popular since 9/11, when they managed to end about 150 years of blacks being the most hated race.
He’ll definitely need to stop being clean to make it in America’s PEDs-ridden sport of boxing.
He could be better than Ali and achieve far more, but he will never surpass Ali’s overrated memory – Ali himself was fighting light heavyweights a lot of the time, and wouldn’t have lasted a round versus Lennox Lewis or Mike Tyson, etc.
