@wasntme7845 I Reckon You might have First hand Knowledge on What it Takes to End up in Hell? Nice..

Amen

Merciless Ray Mercer and Drago do not approve 👎

❤absolutely CORRECT

❤absolutely CORRECT

Yep. Pure class.

Me too. wishing that he was still here and that he didn't get Parkinson's Disease

Me too

You do know Lyle was born in 1941?

Howard Cosell got on my nerves but he loved Muhammad.

Ali was better before the government took away his title, but it did not matter because he was still prone to the dangerous left hook and he had a hard time fighting counter punchers like Doug Jones, Ali was not unbeatable. Ps, if Cleveland Williams had not been recovering from being fatally shot by a police officer he would have beaten Muhammad Ali.

@@justindantonio257 true about the left hook but he relied too much on standing and taking shots more causing more damage on himself.

It's not hard to imagine. When you consider he is the heavyweight GOAT even with those 3 years missing.

@@rds00799 He was fast but you could see in his earliest fights that he had defensive flaws that could be exploited, if Cleveland Williams had not been a shell of his former self he would have killed Ali in there match, watch the two Liston fights that Cleveland Williams was involved in. Liston face was cut his nose was bleeding from all the punches he took, he had to go to the body to stop Williams at the end of the day, Ali was tailor made for Williams.

@@StuartRyan-yi5ok He was great because of his activism against the Vietnam war I will always give him that, but for his fighting style not so much

Muhammad

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson

Alii Was garbage most overrated fighter of alltime

@@benrking7922 You should have told him that straight in his face. ;)

@@007zz he was incoherent ken Norton rendered him retarded.

💯

The lat Muhamad Ali kept his boxing throne for 5 years... which is the best worldwide

Yeah. Brilliant fight. More unbelievable than a Hollywood movie

Lyle ought to have gone after Ali much more@@shaz2761

Dude watch Foreman vs Lyle its also epic

Except for the few times when he got mad about his name change

@@terrencerandle1184They asked for that lol… He told them 😂

I seen a fight where the guy was out on his feet obviously done with eyes closed but still his opponent kept hitting him, result a death in the ring 😢

Ken Norton ??

BUT HE TOOK WAY TOO MANY THUMPS TO THE HEAD FOR NO REAL REASON -- JUST TO PROVE IT I GUESS -- BUT YEAH -- HE TOOK SOME REAL SHOTS IN THIS FIGHT & DIDNT EVEN BLINK

Its what killed him

You get hit Boxing! Muhammad Ali RIP fought during the greatest era of Heavyweights in Boxing history and 3 years of his career ,his prime years were taken from him ! When he returned to the Ring he was at 28 years old still dominant but his movement especially early on wasn't the same! He had to adjust in order to deal with pressure Fighters and heavy punchers !

Ken Norton didn't knock Muhammad Ali out ! He won a decision in their first bout!

I had to rewind it countless times and take my 👀 off the left punch he threw first! Then concentrate on that right. And man! So I did it again and watched his head snap back. Smdh.

That's called a one- two, and you'll never see a faster one. ​@@dallasborn8574

You're right . They sound horrible . Only the soud can give you an idea about how huge this straight right was . If it wasn't the rope , Ron would be on the floor . He recovered but wasn't able to stand up straight and throw a serious punch. Ref. Saved him. But when he started complaining , was a shame. Coz after more than 40 hurts , the ref. Took a very good decision.

Yes, he had his prize on his arm. Something Muhammad would never do.

Amen. 😊

You should get your eyes tested, everyone can see the right hand that hurt Lyle but Ali couldn't even put him down, it was a premature stoppage with Lyle complaining and ahead on all score cards. In 2015 the FBI released 50 year old sealed wire taps on a Nevada mafia boss who was telling a friend to bet your house on Ali to beat Liston because he was going to take a dive, this only confirmed what everybody already knew, that right hand that hit Liston had nothing on it, even Ali was shouting at Liston to "get up nobody is going to believe this". The Ali vs Foreman fight was fixed, Foreman was exhausted and stumbling around the ring after just 3 rounds, the ropes were loosened so Ali could lean back and avoid Foreman's uppercut, he also received a fast count and when Foreman got up and walked to his corner Ali collapsed to the floor and had to be helped up and don't forget Ali wouldn't give him a rematch despite being the No 1 contender for the next 3 years. Ali is one of the greatest fighters but there are many others.

Yes the he was the very amazing the boxer in the history

hi can we fight with ernie shavers

you can

See Foreman-Lyle fight and you will see you are correct.

He started very late. And this fight looked like an early stoppage. He should had tried to run like Ali did against Liston. Lyle looked very slow compared to Ali. Lyle should have learnt conuterpunching.

Shavers and Foreman the hardest puncher in history ​@@user-hy4yi6te5x

when did he star then?????

@@user-bt3tj6we7b at 24 years old after prison

In the jail.

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson

He did not school Lyle or he would have knocked hm out in the round he predicted. It was a competitive fight in which Ali took many hard shots and Lyle also dodged a lot of Alis blow. Ali was not in his prime and he still won, but it was not easy.

Facts those who don't really know the sport are always the first to comment. This was a very competitive fight and the cracks is Alli had just dtarted to show.

@@keithcampbell6806 Ali was going easy on Lyle and was on the verge of showing the beginning stages of parkinsons. Lyle was a monster yet had to be saved by the ref once Ali started to get serious. This was a schooling. 60's ali would have made lyle look like a child.

& holmes. Those legends made it very hard 4 any champion.

Lyle survived prison and was able to cash some very large checks fighting the likes of Ali and Foreman who had drawing power, I don't think he was "unfortunate" at all. Besides, there's more value to being a contender fighting big names, then being a "champion" in fights nobody cares about. Ask the likes of Mike Weaver, Michael Dokes, Greg Page, Tony Tubbs, Gerrie Coetzee, and all the others that held a version of the belt (albeit a little regarded one with Larry Holmes owning the WBC version) in the 80's how much money they made as "champ" and they'll be the first to tell you that a fight against Ali or Foreman as a contender would have been worth almost as much, maybe even more. Never forget it's the quality and personality of the fighter that enhances the title, not the other way around. By the time Ali came onto the professional scene, boxing was reaching new lows in viewership, interest, and ticket sales. Outside of boxing enthusiasts, most of the public could have cared less that Sonny Liston was heavyweight champion. Ali recognized that and that's when he came up the pro wrestling style gimmicks to increase the draw. He knew just as many people would pay to see him lose as they would to see him win. People today find it hard to comprehend but having been a young man during Ali's fighting career who watched his fights, he would often get booed and a LOT of people did not like him, which would have pleased Ali because that meant his schtick was working.

same

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson

@@Baernackel sugar Ray Robinson and Rocky Marciano are in my top 5 but there’s only 1 GOAT and Ali is his name

I was 2 years old when he won his fight with Liston so I was very young and wasn't into sports but of course, I knew about Muhammad Ali and now I see why ppl feel the way they do about him. He was an amazing person.

Absolutely. His approach was "Kill the head, and the body dies". The exact opposite of what was considered a boxing axiom at the time.

No never is not true but quite rare

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson

I mean ken Norton said punching his body is like punching concrete that says allot about his physical strength

not unbeatable but he has blended both experience and his diminished skills, Ali's best attribute was head movement and reflexses but after exile both of them went away 😢

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson

actually he has done good job but Ali wasnt peak in shape and condition since 1970

Muhammad Ali never went to prison.

What Larry Holmes he was great also, he was Ali but with better defense and fundamentals, Holmes held the heavyweight title for seven years that's not exactly a blip in the radar.

@@justindantonio257 Sure but he wasn’t exciting to watch he didn’t capture the world of boxing like Ali or Tyson.

@@spank2424 He was not the most exciting fighter I will give you that, being exciting is not always a good quality in a champion, Holmes was also Alis sparring partner.

@@justindantonio257 So who was the most exciting heavyweight boxing to watch???

​@@justindantonio257He was NOT better than Ali in any way maybe a bit in power that's it he's flat footed most of the time, reflexes good but not Ali's level had huge problems in clenches , his jab game was a copy from Ali except Ali was faster and moved with it , he barely could've knocked out an ill Ali let alone a young one bring Ali in the Cleveland Williams fight or even the 70's and he would've schooled him and make him seem awkward

the greatest? that is between Marciano and Sugar Ray Robinson
