NEW ORLEANS (AP)—Muhammad Allon tonight will try to become the first man to win the heavyweight championship three times when he fights Leon Spinks, an ex-Marine whose fists could write the end to the All era.
Defeat could, at last, 'retire' Ali
"I WILL GO down as the first man to win the title three times," said AlI, and it seems that much of the public agrees. In fact, the general attitude appears to be that the champion and Spinks is the champion and the winner, that feeling, but says it doesn't bother him.
A loss, however, probably would make the scheduled 15-rounder in the Superdome his last one in the most spectacular career in sports history.
But should Allu win, he could change his mind for "one more" fight. Alla has retired
"The only difference in this fight from the other one is that this time I'm trying to keep it, not get it," Spinks said. "I ain't predicting. The best man wins."

THE CHAMPIONSHIP world for the 25-year-old Spinks has shrank since then.

Spinks' protector no shy violet
NEW ORLEANS (AP)—He is something that would defy the most fertile imagination of Hollywood—a bulking black man, head shaven, bearded, eyes hidden behind dark shades, a gold earring in his left ear, a white carnation on the lapel of the dark suit.
His metaphors are as subtle as his act.

down on which is correct and you get a quick brushoff:
"JUSTCALLmeMr.T."
When Spinks enters the Superdome ring tonight for his WBA title defense against Muhammad Ali, Mr. T is certain to be in the center of the camera's eye.
"Make way for the champ," he says brusqueley, elbowing through the crowds.
"ONE WAY glasses," he says, "I can say what I want, that way and nobody knows where I'm looking."
In workouts this week, Mr. T made a tour of the Municipal Auditorium stage to check every credential before Spink's appearance and then, stiff-backed, like a G-man guarding a president, he would strike a pose on his shoulder, hiding his eyes darting back and forth.
Mr. Mt met Spins in Chicago last spring when the fighter appeared there for an exhibition. Mr Mt latched on to Spinks when the champion was looking for a bodyguard.
"It was my profession," he says. "I was guardyard for three rich men in Chicago because of the damage."
Mr. T's background is as mysterious as his visage. He says he attended Prairie View High School, running back for the Green Bay Packers in 1974-76, earned a black belt in karate and was an all-star athlete.
PACKER BROCHURES fail to authenticate his claim as a Bart Starr protege.
He stands 6 feet, weighs 247 pounds and resembles a black Kojak. His suit fits him.
"Some days I wear a crescent and a star—they denote heavenly bodies," he said.
"Now I have a heart-shaped one. That's love."
The earrings, he contends, have special significance.
