wasn't sure if I'd like it

I have to say I wasn't sure if I'd enjoy this which is probably why it took so long for me to watch it. I grew up watching Ali and rooting for him to win and never paid much attention to the racial issues and his Islam conversion. For me it was admiring his athletic ability as well as his great rhetoric.
I think why I liked this was because it gave me a different facet of his life that I could put with his athletic ability.
Jon Voight as Howard Cosell I have to say was ridiculous. It couldn't be told it was him, so having him didn't really matter. Knowing he was Voight with all that makeup just made me laugh.
