Why I Watch Old Muhammad Ali Videos
You've got to first know that I've been watching lots and lots of old Muhammad Ali videos. By movies I mean fight videos, and yes, even Hollywood scripts. But, getting back to the subject; Why have I been doing this, (watching these old videos), I mean?
Keep in mind I'm an old boxing wanna be. During my younger years, (and older years in my dreams), I would get into the ring and give it all I had. I'm talking pretty serious stuff here. All amateur fights. But, I dreamed of being a professional fighter. If the competition had, in my time, been what it is today, I might have done pretty well. But, I regress; The subject here is why I watch these old Muhammad Ali videos.
It is because there is magic in watching these old great fighters do their jobs. I'm not kidding about this, not in the least. The only reason it's obvious to me that they are mortal men, is because they all got old. But, maybe that's part of the magic?
Maybe I'm crazy. But, when I'm feeling overcome with the tedious aspects of this life - I put on an old Muhammad Ali video, (VHS, no less). Then, like magic, I feel a glimmer of the spark that was in my heart not so long ago. And to my wife's consternation, I start dancing around the living room, throwing straight left jabs through the air. Then, for just a little while, I'm that strong young amateur that is going to be another Muhammad Ali!
When we all get to heaven, and btw, all fighters are going to heaven; I'm going to ask Ali, and Big George and Smokin' Joe, if I can run with them. We'll be young again and running against the wind. Hey maybe we'll have to ask ole' Bob Seger to run with us.? I'm pretty sure he's a fighter at heart too!
So, after reading this short little story I think you get the idea of WHY I watch these old Muhammad Ali Videos. There's a possiblity I watch too many.
