    Ali hitting Foreman with right hand leads (they weren't jabs - they were crosses) had nothing to do with Karate. He just threw some right hand leads, figuring Foreman wouldn't be looking for them. He was right. Nothing Karate in that, straight boxing.

    GM Sensei CTS...I'm not sure.

    GM Sensei Takeshi Ukeno? He's hated Lidell's guts ever since the Tuscogee Throwdown in 1997. He's never forgiven Chuck for the black eye his wife got in the exchange.

    Chuck Liddel knows one style, and one style only. KYTFO. It's a very rare form of martial arts he learned from the Irish.

    yeah i'm aware of that...i'm of the thinking that Ali's other martial art training may have been what made him such a great and unique boxer...does Ali have any texts about his insights to punching while stepping?.
