Angelo Dundee: “Ali was a great natural talent and he would have been a great champion without me. I'll be the first one to say it wasn't me - he was the guy and outside the ring, it was him who taught me. He taught me patience, he taught me decency.
“I watched how he reacted to everything. I saw things done to him that made me sick to my stomach and all he'd say was, ‘you've got to forgive people’.”
Angelo Dundee may have trained the Greatest, but he never claimed to create him. In fact, he credits Ali as the one who shaped him, not with punches or footwork, but with grace. Dundee saw injustice thrown at Ali, yet the champion responded not with hate, but with forgiveness. In the end, the fighter in the ring became the teacher outside of it, and that’s the lesson Dundee carried for life.
