either way it's a tragic waste of monumental talent, and worse than that, it was a hellish sounding life. I've read in the last couple days that the mob ran him and hung him out of a window to keep him in line. His children died, his son was shot or something. He became reclusive apparently. Maybe he was a rapist, I've always believed that people who are jerked around like that act it out on whoever is vulnerable around them. Hope it's not true, everyone has a crazy rumour, I recently heard for the second time a rumour that Ali met a 12 year old girl and she had his baby at 14, if that were true it would absolutely kill me, I just don't think it is.

There were rumors that Jackie and his mother were screwing around when Jackie was a kid and that may have a lot to do with his emotional problems, plus his father walked out on him when he was still a kid. I heard the rumor about Ali but I don't know how true it is. I know he met his second wife Belinda when she was still underage, about 16 or 17, but yeah I feel you on that.

you heard the ali rumor too? where from? 16 or 17 is semi-excusable but 12? that's pedophilic.

Yeah but I don't believe he got with a 12-year-old. That's lowdown.
