How wonderful to watch a boxing match without the commentary. No distracting drivel and opinion. Just the fight. Commentary for radio. Silence for ‘TV’.

That Blin really gave it a shot didn’t he? Landed some big punches but Ali had a solid chin. All great fighters MUST have that solid chin. 💥🥊

I appreciate the quality of this video and it has no talking all over the video, thanks ✌️💢💥🔥💯

Muhammad ali was something else!! Indeed the greatest!

Beautiful upload thank you Mr Blin showed courage and determination against Ali

Ali was a natural..... boxing was his thing and he did it excellently! Rest well great boxer 🙏🏼, still watching you box 😃

Ali is a clean fighter...love this man,,nobody can do what ali could..the only ali forever..a very professional and talented boxer

Wow I agree a great fight over all. Blin was an aggressive opponent. He was freakishly strong and attacked like a Viking! He tagged Ali many times but I have to give it to Ali for his courage he never backed away from those onslaughts and showed courage. It must have been the confidence Ali possessed in his own abilities. Ultimately he just outboxed his opponent Jared Blin.

12/26/71 the day after Christmas, Boxing Day, how appropriate. This was a great gift.

Blin had no jab to set up his power punches .... Ali was a work of art .... just amazing to watch !

blin was smaller..but fight incredible good..he had very hard life as he was child..dnd he fight hard..so its impressive to see him against Ali like this...

Oui mouhamad Ali ,est le plus grand boxeur de tous les temps c vrai pour en trouver un comme lui ce sera pas facile il a des qualités extraordinaires ,hors du commun .

I almost feel sorry for Jurgen here. Every time he tried to put together any sort of attack, he was caught time and time again by the piston like left jab of Ali's. Blin really gave it his best shot. It must have been so demoralizing and frustrating for him. Respect to Blin for his courage and durability .

A tough and clinical win by Ali against an explosive and dangerous opponent. In the final round Ali landed lightening fast left hooks and was setting up the right cross which eventually ended the bout.

Thanks for sharing.... This is one of the very few Muhammad Ali fights I hadn't seen before 👍 Good performance by Ali Vs a difficult and awkward opponent 👏

That knockout was a thing of beauty. Blin's out on his feet and doesn't even know it. He tries to take a step back, and his legs give out. He had taken several hard shots in the 30-45 seconds prior to that, and was already a little wobbly. That last shot just connected perfectly, and Blin was done.

Mohamed Ali was not only a great boxer but a great man also , this is a perfect demonstration of his technic , float like a butterfly sting like a bee. Many boxers have said about him , I knew that he was a great boxer but when you are in the ring against him , then you really realize that he was the greatest .

Artistic and beautiful fighter to watch. Simply the greatest Ali ✨💫🥇🏆

This young man has a brave heart…

Una leyenda del boxeo que será muy difícil de superar, para mí es el más grande de la historia.

The highest mannered and the greatest MASTER OF BOXING, MR. MUHAMMAD ALI, MAY ALLAH THE MOST MERCIFUL HAVE MERCY UPON YOU.

Respect Jürgen .

Todavía no ha nacido el sustituto y muy difícil que salga 0tro como el fue una súper estrella de los pesos conpleto

Ali was and still is and will always the the best that ever stepped in the ring.the man was something else.

This guy was one tough cookie to break much respect ✊ Ali showed his great skills!

El mas grande deportista del planeta....grande inalcansable

Mass x Velocity = Force. When Ali caught you lunging in, his right hand taught you the equation. And you learned it.

this was the most elegant knockout I have ever seen. pure technique. what a genius Ali was.

M Ali Is The best for ever

Le meilleur boxeur de.tout les temps Mohamed Ali Allah yhramou.amine

Blin was fearless, but like a bull in a china closet. Sooner or later he was either gonna run into Ali's punch or knock himself out. Maybe he did both. Anyway, good fight by Blin, but also great patience by Ali. For him, this was just a journey fight on the long way back to reclaiming the title.

Wow Blin just didn't know when to quit! Ali fought EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE. Don't think there's been such a well travelled champ since, truly a world figure. RIP GOAT 👊

Ali was lord of the rings. Kept using his left jab all night. Blocking blin attacks till blin got tired. The ali landed one right hand and that did it. RIP king of all kings.

Fenomenal o maior de todos os tempos.

Several times, Blin got out of position and I liked how Ali didn't hit him. Ali was the greatest.

Love the champ thanks for putting this on

I have seen an interview with Juergen Blin lately where he said he had not really a chance but the only direction was forward. Blin: "If I had done nothing he would have knocked me out in round one."

Muhammad Ali is boxing in Zurich, Switzerland. What a treat for the people of Switzerland to see Muhammad Ali.

This match was fought 53 years ago... half a centuary ago and the video is still good.

Blin was a light heavyweight. Courage he had.

Watching this fight made me realize how Ali masterly footwork and pugilist skills made this opponent look like a leopard sparring with a Bengal Tiger.

All of Ali’s training of jogging and Rope work paid of in that he had great footwork and endurance to go 12 or 15 rounds and to keep moving.

He is the best boxer for all time

QUE DIOS TENGA EN EL CIELO A MUTHAMMAD ALI, EL MAS GRANDE BOXEADOR DE LA HISTORIA. GRACIAS POR LLEVAR ESTAS PELEAS DEL MAS GRANDE A UKposts.

what a elegance and style ,swift and always relaxed and always in control of the match

Most casual fans don't realize the range of small movements Ali used to keep opponents off-balance, second guessing whether to punch, where to punch; his shots came with so little set-up, on the beat, off the beat, that otherwise excellent fighters all said he was nearly impossible to figure out - and most of this was after the unjust three year separation from the sport which cost him his reflexes. People will often say he had no punching power, or that it looks like he's slapping. But Ali frequently did something which gave his punches the ability to separate opponents form their senses and/or motor control - the sudden twist at the end of a seemingly innocuous cross or hook. Watch one of the highlight reels of his KO's. Otherwise durable fighters tended to freeze in place, collapse where they stood, as if electrocuted. It is a different kind of force than we're used to from a big, powerful fighter. Imagine a small stone, traveling twice as fast as a large one, but spinning when it hits its target. Compare that to being clubbed with a big rock, or an actual club. Neither is pleasant. But if you've been in the ring, hit by a muscled powerful but slower dude, and also by a speed demon with great accuracy and the ability to land when you don't have time to react, you'll know just how different the effect is. The men he made look incompetent were among the best heavyweights in history. Every meaningful heavyweight of his generation were in the ring with him, and he beat all, except Holmes....and Holmes fought Ali when Ali was symptomatic with Parkinsons and heavily medicated. Only a few spotted his few weaknesses; Ali made sure to rematch his TOUGHEST opponents, and beat ALL of them in rematches. Want an education in Ali, and the intricacies of the sport?

Blin was very quick and aggressive, almost like a middleweight. But He had no way around Ali’s jab. Ali’s ring movement was exceptional and he was very patient and methodical the way he wore him down.

I've never seen Ali "fight" like this. This was different i have this dudes respect. It's hard to beat Ali he tried his damn best

Ali's best asset was his left jab..yes.. but his footwork was remarkable for a guy of his size .Agile and well coached in ring craft. He would assess his opponent's strategy and arsenal by moving to his left, always moving..and jabbing with his left to keep his opponent away and he quickly figured that his opponent only ducked one way and so chopped him repeatedly with a downward right

What heart for that man to hang in with alli , he’s the real rocky . Never gave up .

MashaAllah, V.Nice, The Great Boxer, Mohammed Ali.. 🌹🌹🇹🇯🌹🇰🇼🌹

Ali showed us the art of boxing

The speed of the final two punches. Damn.

Another proof of how inteligent ali was as a boxer ..he always rose the the challenge ..the greatest boxer who ever lived .

WOW...i was born 6days after this fight with down 12/31/ 1971 man blin was it no.push over he stood toe to toe with ali...great fight

Muhammad Ali Legend of 🥊

Salam to all, Mohammad Ali is the greatest heavyweight boxer of all times. He taught Jotge Blin a boxing technic. Sukran

Good quality footage, thank you.

Not taking away anything Ali did before ‘67, but the 70s is where Ali’s heavyweight career starts with me. And where he became legendary.

Ali was an artist in the ring fast as lightning my favorite athlete

As a 16 year old watching this bout I didn’t appreciate what a good and brave competitor Juergen Blin was. He was well conditioned gave his all, that’s as much as a man can do, hats off to Jurgen albeit 50 years late.

You wont see today's lumbering heavyweights move like this. Graceful art with speed and power.

The way Ali boxing full with entertaimant And beautiful he like an artis on the ring

Not a terrible performance for someone that stiff, everyone looked stiff against Ali he was so fluid

Cara, que luta dois monstros no hing.

Mohammed ali is the only boxer who boxes only on the faces. Never ever hits elsewhere.

Its always a pleasure to watch an Ali fight, but just as pleasant is no commentary. Its bliss not having to listen to pundits constantly rabbit over the action and your get to hear the crowd instead

That great humility of Ali when Blin was in trouble on the ropes, with his arms down and Ali pulled his punches when he had every right to batter Blin.

Never seen this fight or heard of Blin before. Blin could duck and weave, but he swings wide and lunges, loosing his balance.The punches that did connect did not seem to have sting and power like Ali's do. Also, Blin looks like a smaller fighter. Like he is fighting above his weight class.

Jürgen Blin war ein guter Boxer. Karl Mildenberger auch. Solche Leute brauchen wir wieder!

Indeed! The Greatest Boxer To Ever Grace The Ring, All Things Considered!

رحمك الله يامحمد واسكنك فسيح الجنات

Aside from skill, Ali had a way of creating the right openings at the right time during close fights.

Kudos for trying. Also knows that with a height and reach disadvantage you have to get inside to have any effect or any chance. I'm amazed at how many shorter guys try to fight on the outside these days. Crazy.

La légende le king de king magnifique ❤️

Man, this is what I call “Respect” 20:15 ...so many times Ali could have taken advantage of him when he swings wide & missed. Oh yeah...that Ref was pissing me off 🤷🏾‍♂️

Blin had one of the best fights against Ali ever recorded. His strategy of using combinations continuously off the opponent’s jab caused caused this to be a challenging fight for Ali.

Masha Allah

I kind of got the feeling Ali was having fun playing around with this guy. Give the crowd a good show.

Ali the most famous boxer in the world . No internet, tweeter and Facebook in the 60s and the 70s . According to the international press the name Muhammad Ali was known in the most remote areas of the world.

Nobody comes close to the legend of Muhammed Ali....

Mohammed Ali is a legend

Maintenant la boxe elle a beaucoup évoluée mais Mohamed Ali restera toujours le meilleur boxeur de tous les temps.

DON'T FORGET FOLKS. We never saw prime ALI since he his title was taken away in his prime years and he is still the greatest of all times

R.I.P KING OF BOXING... M. ALI

Ali the GOAT. A real gentleman. He would have knocked Blin cold in the earlier rounds when Blin missed and got himself exposed. Ali did not use that opportunity. A real gentleman. RIP champ.

Muhammad Ali is the Gift of God for this planet

Blin have Ali a lot of trouble, was very brave and did his best. He and his nation should be proud of his performance.

Keep an eye on Blin trying really hard to catch Ali with elbows. Especially in the corners.

sensacional dois gigantes do boxe mundial.BRASIL.

❤🎉Aliiiiiiiiii🎉🎉🎉🎉

Blin started out and was quite the aggressor in the first three rounds. Then I noticed Ali found the measure and shortened the distance between the two for the remainder. But like all those at the time who managed to nail Ali, over the course of the fight, they were made to pay for it.

This is one of Ali's fights i never seen i'm surprised i never heard of this guy ! He was really good !

That jab was vicious and almost like a machine gun. Blin simply stopped trying to dodge or slip it. I give credit Blin, lot of heart there, he did not just give up. He fought till the end.

This one of Ali's best. Blin was no match for Ali's speed and his ability to duck opponents punches as he made Blin look silly. Blin swung at the air too many times to count. Blin was frustrated and angrily lunged at Ali several times off balance and into the ropes. When Blin swung wildly charging into Ali, he just covered up and those round house swings just landed on Ali's arms or Ali just danced away. Finally, Blin just walked into a right hand after taking a bloody beating from Ali's left the entire fight. You could see Blin had no defense, no answer and complete confusion as Ali hit him continuously with the left and ended it with the right to the jaw that spun Blin's head and knocked him out. Ali is still an inspiration to watch for all time!

Boxing then is so different to boxing now.

الله يرحمك يا بطل العالم

He is the Real Champion Masha Allaah....... True Legend

Thank you

il l'a eu a ll'ussure toujours avec ces petits coup du point gauche ! lui c'etait un vrai boxer, jeux de jambes , allonge , esquive , voila ce que represente a mes yeux un boxeur, bravi mr ali
