Muhammad Ali visited Sts. Constantine & Helen Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Richmond, VA in 1993. He ran into former Virginia amateur welterweight boxing champion Carroll Sample who was an avid fan of The Champ and used to do impressions of Ali. Sample recited, in his best Ali imitation, the rhyme said before the Champs “Fight of the Century” against Joe Frazier on March 8, 1971:
“Joe’s going to come out smokin’
And I ain’t gonna be jokin’
I’ll be pecking and a-pokin’
Pouring water on his smokin.’
This may shock and amaze you
But I will destroy Joe Frazier.”
