Cassius Clay

Cassius Clay, in his day, was bloody hard to beat... but smoking Joe stood toe to toe, and no he wasn't weak, fought the rumble in the jungle, just the ladies made him weep:) re :" Muhammed Ali" Andrea Dietrich floats like a butterfly stings like a bee.....? Don Johnson quick as lightening Cassius was, tapping slapping dodging cos, the big ole thumpers if they clipped, pon ya ear it ud hurt a bit, just floating slappin hey.... Thanks Russell mate...Don for Cassius Clay, it all seemed play, to slap and taunt a bit, lightening quick, weaved and hit, and sidestepped, jumped away, but time the toll does pay, like me, he's had his day:( best boxer he was it!

Some men are fighting to be lovers but their ego's get in the way.
