he said, muhammad ali. that stunned the interviewer.uhammad ali had defeated george foreman in africa and usually when a boxer loses to another one, it was a lucky punch or he was just a little better that night. not the greatest champion after that lived. he didn't hesitate. he said, muhammad ali. the interviewer said, why, why did you choose him? he said, well, if you saw the fight in the eighth round, he hit me twice in the face. george foreman began to cartwheel. he began to turn and fall to the floor and as he was falling, muhammad ali, as all boxers are trained all their life to do cocked his arm to hit him with what is called the killing punch. george foreman said, i looked up at him just partially conscious, knowing i was going to the floor, and he never threw that punch. so for me he's not the greatest champion that ever lived for the punches he threw, it's for what he didn't do. it's the punch he didn't throw. the very people who besmirched this prince of peace, at the end of his public career, when they fell on hard times and

than me and muhammad ali tweeted back to him, don't you ever forget i'm the greatest. in a time of social unrest and his voice was much needed to galvanize people and to show that they can work within a system and maintain their values when he was a conscientious objector to the vietnam war. stayed true to being a muslim and converting to islam, he was able to follow that path and prove that he was going to stay true to his principles in light of everything happens around him. i think you have a lot of athletes willing to do that for their principles because of the amount of commerce that surrounds them. >> what if it was just money. he comes up in a time of social unrest. we're in a time of social unrest. would mayweather be more of a likable guy even if for money alone he was able to say i'm give a portion of to a black -- >> according to several tax returns gave $7,000 to charity. he has a nonprofit. guest how much that nonprofit gave out last year? $37,000 is what the nonprofit distributed. i mean -- >> that may be about poverty. but the most charitable i can be. s

muhammad ali was brilliant.st famous sportsmen of all time -- certainly in the last century. he was there. don king got it on closed-circuit tv. it then became pay-per-view. now, it is becoming streaming and you can watch fights on that. he has mark: been there all the way. mark:is he number one in boxing promotions? frank: he was a great promoter. he is a great promoter of don king as well. mark: all promoters are good promoters of themselves. frank: i suppose they are. guy: frank warren talking about boxing. equity markets taking a bit of a ride this morning. let's take a look at what the numbers look like. we will do that in a few minutes. our next guest thinks it could be time to break out the champagne on european corporate's. anna: as we had to break the u.k. goes to the ballot box today to vote in the general election. 650 mps will be elected as the registered voters get a chance to decide the makeup of the next parliament. polling stations will close at 10:00 p.m. u.k. time. prime minister david cameron

mayweather is a little bit, i guess like muhammad ali. as great as angelo dundee was nobody trained ali, he made his own decisions. he did what his instincts told him and what his great confidence he had. he went his own way. he listened to himself. mayweather does not really listen to anyone, but pacquiao listens to freddie roach. backpacquiao has the edge because he listens to his guy. charlie: understanding the difference in the wayeight class, how would you compare mayweather to muhammad ali? teddy: well -- they are both great believers in themselves. they can be a little arrogant sometimes. that goes with great accomplishments sometimes. arrogance becomes a cousin to that sometimes. they both are promoters. they both know how to make money. but, ali had much more social significance. mayweather does not. he does not have that social significance. he has not attached himself to some kind of social endeavor or belief that a lot of these guys could. ali did whether you believe him or not. ali took a risk to do that. mayweather was prett

mark twain at one point michael jordan muhammad ali a great list. but one of the things i enjoyed most doing my book was following twain's become tour with huckleberry finn and reading the accounts of him performing on stage, and then the larger than life media presence he created. little bits of business designed to attract the attention of the newspapers. he would take interviews from his bed so the interviewers would go into his hotel room and he'd be inned and take the interviews and or have a fake fight, or he'd go on a train and he'd go in the smoking car lower all the windows to get the smoke to go out and just over and over, these little things that would irritate or animate everyone around them but made it clear he was his own man traveling through this world and just article after article. when he traveled with huckleberry finn he started the -- his book tour the day after a presidential election, which was a hotly disputed one for weeks afterwards, with the electoral vote in doubt. and that upper right-hand side corner of every newspaper

he said, muhammad ali. that stunned the interviewer. muhammad ali had defeated george foreman in africa and usually when a boxer loses to another one, it was a lucky punch or he was just a little better that not. not the greatest champion after that lived. he didn't hesitate. he said, muhammad ali. the interviewer said why, why did you choose him? he said, well, if you saw the fight in the eighth round, he hit me twice in the face. george foreman began to cartwheel. he began to turn and fall to the floor and as he was falling , muhammad ali, as all boxers are trained all their life to do congressed his arm to hit him -- cocked his arm to hit him with what is called the killing punch. george foreman said, i looked up at him just partially conscious, knowing i was going to the floor and he never threw that punch. so for me he's not the greatest champion that ever lived for the punches he threw, it's for what he didn't do. it's the punch he didn't throw. the very people who besmirched this prince of peace, at the end of his public career w

does it come close to being as big as the glory days you will recall like heavyweights muhammad ali andleonard. >> well it does come close to the garylory days because it is a glorious fight we've been waiting years for. and these are the pound for pound kings of the sport of boxing. and a lot of people would have liked to have seen this five or six years ago when both were at take peak but it wouldn't be what it is today because it's grown over that time it's impossible to say whether it's going to go down as one of the great fights in history. all the hype and lead up into it is a whole different level. and the money. 200 million potentially to floyd mayweather and the 100 million to pacquiao. and the huge, huge audience. but we have to wait until the bout is over to see what we have. >> i guess you are right because it all depends on what their styles would bring to the ring. they both are very talented fighters. but they have different styles. can you talk about their style? >> well floyd "money" mayweather is perhaps at least in this generation and at this time the greatest defensi
