I just saw a clip from the documentary When We Were Kings on the Open Culture blog featuring the late Norman Mailer talking about the epic George Foreman vs. Muhammad Ali fight in Zaire. After partaking, I couldn’t resist re-blogging it. What an awesome documentary, I particularly like the part (not included in this clip) when the late George Plimpton claims that Ali is the author of the shortest poem in the English language: Me/We.
