00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:19.820
The Rolls Royce parked on East 63rd Street was the only sign of luxury outside the Windy

2
00:00:19.820 --> 00:00:20.460
City Gym.

3
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:25.780
Inside the dingy boxing parlor, the only sign of opulence was visible around the middle

4
00:00:25.780 --> 00:00:26.900
of Muhammad Ali.

5
00:00:27.460 --> 00:00:31.220
The greatest confessed Monday to being the fattest he's been in many years.

6
00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:35.740
And with Friday's exhibition match with Scott Ledoux only a couple of steak dinners away,

7
00:00:36.100 --> 00:00:37.480
the champ is starting to sweat.

8
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.800
It's too late to get into decent shape, and there's always the possibility Ali could be

9
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:45.280
embarrassed by Ledoux in their five round match.

10
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:50.700
And that's why I'm going to get Scott Ledoux, because I have extra weight.

11
00:00:51.860 --> 00:00:56.340
I predict all the people out here, this will be a free fall battle.

12
00:00:56.860 --> 00:01:01.680
He's looking for reputation like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, Jesse James, whatever the

13
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:05.600
big shots go in the Dodge City, somebody always want to out draw Jesse James.

14
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:07.860
They always want to Doc Holliday or Wyatt Earp.

15
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:08.760
Looking for reputation.

16
00:01:09.020 --> 00:01:10.380
This is a country boy.

17
00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:12.360
He don't like color people.

18
00:01:12.440 --> 00:01:13.060
Oh man.

19
00:01:13.380 --> 00:01:14.340
And I'm going to get him.

20
00:01:15.140 --> 00:01:16.160
I'm going to get him.

21
00:01:16.940 --> 00:01:19.480
He called me a bad name.

22
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:20.760
It rhymes with trigger.

23
00:01:21.100 --> 00:01:21.500
Oh really?

24
00:01:22.260 --> 00:01:22.920
You know a trigger?

25
00:01:23.580 --> 00:01:25.100
He called me a trigger.

26
00:01:25.300 --> 00:01:25.720
Really?

27
00:01:25.720 --> 00:01:27.620
And I'm going to get Scott Ledoux.

28
00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:30.080
I'm never going to hope a man so bad.

29
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:35.260
I'm almost waiting out of shape, but it's five rounds, and we are going for it all.

30
00:01:35.660 --> 00:01:38.500
And then when I hit him, here's what he will see.

31
00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:39.560
Lights out.

32
00:02:13.460 --> 00:02:17.760
I love my rice pudding hot with vanilla ice cream melting over.

33
00:02:18.580 --> 00:02:23.500
All of you are watching this interview, all of you who love to eat, I'm with you.

34
00:02:25.140 --> 00:02:29.160
If they say you're getting too fat, say well Muhammad Ali do too.

35
00:02:35.860 --> 00:02:37.320
You said you're out of shape though right?

36
00:02:37.740 --> 00:02:37.740


37
00:02:37.740 --> 00:02:38.980
Is there a chance he could tag you?

38
00:02:39.140 --> 00:02:39.540
Yeah.

39
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:40.960
Well then isn't that a gamble?

40
00:02:41.700 --> 00:02:42.080
Yeah.

41
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:42.980
Well that ain't nothing.

42
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.620
This exhibition, he can knock me cold, don't take my title.

43
00:02:46.060 --> 00:02:47.740
Yeah but wouldn't it hurt your prestige?

44
00:02:48.460 --> 00:02:48.460


45
00:02:48.980 --> 00:02:50.760
This, this, this would hurt the prestige.

46
00:02:52.100 --> 00:02:53.520
That would hurt the prestige.

47
00:02:55.940 --> 00:02:57.480
That would hurt the prestige.

48
00:02:58.760 --> 00:03:00.620
You don't need no knockdown.

49
00:03:01.300 --> 00:03:01.960
Don't you agree?

50
00:03:02.440 --> 00:03:03.580
Just get in like this.
