Boxing is called the sweet science. And horse racing is the sport of kings. When Clay beat Liston, he bounced up on his stool and shouted that he was King of the World. Corn king, summer king, America's most beautiful young man. An angel in the boxing ring. A new and powerful image of black manhood.
He stepped up on that stool in 1964 and he put a noose around his neck. The thing about magic is that it happens in spite of everything you can do to stop it. And the wild old Gods will have their sacrifice.
No excuses.
If they can't have Charismatic, they'll take the man that saved him. So it goes.
