ELVIS AND ALI

[Jordi1966]

Good night everybody. I'm a new member from Catalunya (Spain)....my first topic is about Mohhammad Ali who in a interwiew on american tv talked about a mistery visit of Elvis in Deer Lake while Ali was trainning around two years before elvis died... Does anyone know something more about this visit? many thanks

never heard that before.
ali had a training facility at deer lake in pennsylvania.
ali fought joe frazier in the historic thrilla in manilla in '75...so maybe elvis visited him while on tour in july?
maybe when elvis was in new york in july of '75?
or when he performed in ohio?
the july tour put elvis on the east coast....but who knows.
ali was very emphatic he not only visited him at the training site but spent the night in one of the cabins.

Many thanks Eric and Kev... this is a real very misterious thing ....only Ali knew about the visit.....Did Ali invent the fact?... who knows

[eric c]

i think its very possible it happened.
i just wonder about the time frame.
was it 75?
elvis was in pittsburgh in '73...maybe then?
but ali seems convinced it indeed happened.
i would think elvis' guys would've known about it...a few of them any way.

There is an interview with Ali's Doctor?,and he was asked did Elvis ever go to Ali's training centre up in the hills,he said yes.

The above was filmed and I saw many moons ago.
