Serious skill.

A few people here might know just how Dokes felt that night-

The saddest part is that the damage from the ones he didn't dodge was cumulative---the Parkinson's is, to my recollection, not the "pure" variety---but rather, a post-concussive variety.

LOL @ the 80s music.

this needs to be a .gif

Needs a *ftw - twice!

Invocations (ftw) cannot be called by Zawash because Zawash is not privileged - sorry.

Simply the greatest sportsman ever....NO contest.

I was just watching the rumble in the jungle. Dude was the king of rope-a-dope.

Right around 1:45. I don't watch much boxing but that was entertaining.

Pretty much hard to win against a guy you can't touch.

Agility > Strength
That's why I can always beat a tree in a fight, as long as it doesn't chase me down the street.
