He hated Ali for calling him uncle tomNot sure of the meaning when you said 'unfairly treated by Ali' before the hype of the fights Ali gave everybody stick,but did see a nice picture of them smililng and shaking hands and both of them saying they had the greatest respect for each other,however,very sad that 'Smoking Joe' has passed on to the ring in the sky...R.I.P. Joe
He hated Ali for calling him uncle tom
Aah!Got you now...,Ali was a brash loudmouth who did what he said he would do...and yes he did call Joe UncleTom..possibly because Joe being such a gentleman that it took Ali a lot of goading, Ali tried everything to get him riled. That was in their younger days but do know that they respected each other. Possibly if Ali can remember in his befuddled brain,he will send or say some form of tribute. R.I.P. Joe!
