When I was younger, I would read all I could about Muhammad Ali. I had a poster of this photo below on my bedroom wall.
Visually, the photo is stunning. The colours and shadows are subtly balanced and the two boxers are positioned so perfectly you would think it was posed. The image encapsulates so much about Ali - his strength, braggadocio, beauty, power. He is so utterly dominant over Liston who is floored and submissive. The crowd seem relatively emotionless and the surrounding darkness refocus your attention on centre stage - on Ali.
Despite its naked brutality, boxing seems to be the most photogenic and cinematic of all sports.
And no better subject than Ali.
The Irish sport of hurling also lends to striking images.

The one where Ali ducks is brilliant - from what I have read, Frazier was a brawler and Ali was a dodger, and it captures them brilliantly. The low angle, the movement, the lights, everything.
Hi there! I have been looking everywhere for the very poster that you posted of ali, your childhood poster, with his arm on his chest. I was wondering if you could help me know where to locate and purchase such a poster. Thank you so very much! Carrie Meurer

A little off topic, Guys... I have a question. Today I saw this site:
[url=http://www.rivalspot.com]Rivalspot.com - Wii Live Tournaments[/url]
They say you can play online sports game tournaments on any console for cash... had anyone tried that before? Looks like a cool idea...
Are there any other sites where you can play sports games for real moneys? I Googled and found only Bringit.com and Worldgaming.com but it looks these guys don't specialize in sport gamez. Any suggestions?
