The feinting, & reach for whenever Ali got in mid-range at 3:20 to mess up the angles of the counter right hand were VERY effective. Solid counterpunchers can really be thrown off by feints, alongside a taller/rangy fighter's jab with different levels to change.

@christopherlyons59007 місяців тому
Every time? He lost a fair few, and some of the fights he won on points there's been doubt about. Also, some of his opponents were bigger than him. Zora Folley was a very good fighter, but hardly counts as one of the all-time greats. Joe Frazier does, and in his first fight with Ali, he was the big brother--even though he was smaller. "Hey big bro, watch me knock you on your conceited ass!" ;)

@@user-bj2cv3ii9u But not nearly as hard. The power of the punch counts as well. Light jabs don't score as high. Look at Ali's face when he gets up after that knockdown. One side of it is swelling like he got stung by a hive full of angry bees. Ali never had that kind of power. Ali was off his feet in the previous round as well, though that was ruled a slip. Frazier was wearing him out. He was making mistakes. Getting sloppy. He just got beat. And this wasn't even the best possible version of Frazier, since as Ali knew at the time, Frazier had been diagnosed with high blood pressure, for which he was hospitalized after the fight. Put the best possible Frazier in against the best possible Ali, I think Frazier's much more likely to win, because his style is a huge problem for Ali, and he can take Ali's best punches to deliver his own, which are just a whole lot stronger. Ali was an accurate puncher, his right had some power, but he was a percentage player. Frazier was a damn wrecking machine. He broke George Chuvalo's face. He could have done the same to Ali, if they'd met when he was in absolute top form.

@peterstorck53493 роки тому
Indeed and Exactly Hambdan!! ALI was diagnosed by a Dr at 14 with crippling Juvenile Arthritis and Bursitis in both hands, something very few people still know till this very day!! Advised to give boxing away and just jog etc to keep fit. Ali said with all due respect Dr, I only want to learn to defend myself, and whoop whoever stole my bike!! AND I'll just have to learn to use fast stinging punches instead of hitting hard!! The Dr said ure Trainer told me u snapped a chain on his speed ball!! ALI said, ohhhh that was just a Fluke Doc!! Anyway the point is we'll NEVER know how just HOW Hard he'd have really hit if it wasn't for that!! As u said, He could dance and go from being right in front of an opponent, to 6gt away, and As Joe Bugner told me...UUUU try hitting a Bantom or Featherweight foot fast Ali Pete!! AND HE was faster than anyone in the world including light weights on his feet!! I got and rocked him with a straight right at full force..BUT!! He retaliated with 8 more left right combos I lost count of at 5!! AND HE ROCKED ME 6XS AS MUCH!!As I rocked him...ANNND I saw STARS for at least 30 seconds!! ALI had lightning fast hands and I swear he had a 3rd arm at xs because I just didn't see it coming!! I'd be looking at both of his gloves then, out of the nowhere yet ANOTHER punch landed on me!! I'm so proud I lasted the full 15 Rounds both fights BUT!!, I knew by the 8th in both he had me beaten and, streets ahead on points!! God bless you Ali!! I'd LOVE to kid myself I'll see his like a again, but equally I know I won't!

Clay/Ali lost 30 quality retirement years because he was never a "Power" hitter. He was simply a one dimensional outside roadrunner boxer that always hit on the end of his punches, never causing his opponents severe concussions, broken bones or knocked out teeth. His style was never tailored to deliver body blows or inside fightin and his low-power right cross cost him dearly.

Ali: A Life by Jonathan Eig writes; "Ali encouraged his sparring partners to hit him in the head to build up resistance to head shots, similar to calluses." (☠️) Using scientist Eig reviewed footage of all Ali's fights, "he was hit about 200,000 times, half of those blows were to the head." Eig continues, "He absorbed way more blows than the average fighter because part of his strategy was to allow his opponents to him. He thought he could wear down his opponents by letting them punch him in the head, then wait until the late rounds when they're tired and beat them, similar to the Shavers fight." (☠️) "Ali's speech slowed by 26 percent between the ages of 26 and 39," said Johnathan. Eig's study, conducted by Arizona State speech scientists Visar Berisha and Julie Liss found that Ali's speech slowed by 16 percent after a 15-round bout with Ernie Shavers in 1977. Shavers, a brawler, landed 266 punches throughout the fight. If one fight had to be picked, Ernie Shavers inflicted the most damage. To even consider featherfisted Ali as the greatest ultra Super Heavyweight Fighter that ever lived is absolute nonsense. Mathematically Eig just proved it and you witnessed it ..it's not how you start IT'S HOW YOU FINISH

I’ve read he had some natural advantages, similar to Bruce Lee, that made him better. He wasn’t proportioned the same as most heavy weights of his time as his legs were a little bulkier and his torso thinner, so he could move around faster. Lee had longer-than-average arms for his size (he had the arm length of a man about 4 inches taller than himself), so these things just made it easier, in addition to their training and drive, for them to win.

There has never been a boxer that moves quite like Ali. He dodges quite a few blows effectively, yet he isn't afraid of being hit; in fact inviting some blows just to size you up, I guess. Uses the whole boxing ring; even the ropes to his advantage. On top of that he's got the energy of a child and keeps moving endlessly, with the uncanny ability to hit his target at will; and knowing when and how for the kill. It's clear this man Ali fights first and more with his head before his fists, no wonder he was so great.

I could not be a bigger fan of Ali, rest his soul. I listened to the first Liston fight on the radio with my older brother when I was 10. We were huddled over that radio in the dark and when it was over my brother, who was 6 years older, slapped me on the knee and yelled out HE DID IT! What a memory for a young kid in a very small town in Illinois. I am commenting because in the years since I have watched every fight on tv. I was in college when he lost to Ken Norton. I remember leaving the tv room in the dorm before the fight was over because I could not handle watching him lose. The Zora Foley fight is unusual in the sense that Ali could not summon an ounce of ill will towards his opponent. My recall is that he referred to Foley as a nice man. Contrast that with his savage beating of Floyd Patterson, who he kept on his feet just to torture him for 12 rounds much like a cat keeps a mouse alive for the fun of it. Or Ernie Terrell, sneering “what’s my name” repeatedly throughout the fight. When you look at pictures of Ali landing a punch, the look of vicious intent is unmistakable. But, at the end of this fight, after the knockout, you see Ali with his arm draped over Foley’s shoulder for a long time out of respect. Then you see him follow Foley to his corner I believe out of genuine concern to see that he was ok. What a great man.

One thing was very clear throughout and after this fight. Namely Ali's deep respect for his opponent. Zora was in his time a very talented heavyweight boxer. Sometimes he seemed to lack confidence or run out of steam. At other times he could be deadly dangerous with that right hand of his and he was always a good stylist. Ali gave Zora a chance he ought to have had many years before when Zora was at his own peak. Afterwards Ali consoled a crying relative of Zora's by saying "Don't cry. He was just too old" and Ali hugged Zora. It was all about respect!

I watched this fight in March, 1967, with a few friends. As the fight went on, we all realized just how talented and clever Ali was, as a fighter. Zora Foley did give him his toughest challenge, to that point. Ali gave Foley great credit as a boxer, but recognized he was too old. That happens to many boxers, including Ali, Holmes, Tyson, Joe Louis, and more.

"The right hands Ali hit me with just had no business landing-but they did. They came from nowhere. Many times he was in the wrong position but he hit me anyway. Blatt! and the punch connected. I've never seen anyone who could do that. The knockdown punch was so fast that I never saw it. He has lots of snap, and when the punches land they dizzy your head; they fuzz up your mind. "The first time I went down, I wasn't hurt, but I didn't know what had happened. Suddenly I became aware of the noise and then I saw Ali standing over me, and I figured I was down. So I wheeled around to look at my corner, to find out the count. I kept thinking, was that a right hand he hit me with? So what did he do but hit me with the same punch again in the seventh round and knock me out. I can't believe it, but that's what he did. "He's smart. The trickiest fighter I've seen. He's had 29 fights and acts like he's had a hundred. He could write the book on boxing, and anyone that fights him should be made to read it first. Zora Folley RIP to two great fighters
@yourstickboy7 років тому
An honest and humble testament to one great boxer from another. And this is the Muhammad Ali of whom Angelo Dundee said that if he hadn't been stripped of his title and made to fight a three and a half year legal battle, he would have improved even further and beaten everyone in his path for years, and we would have seen him at his best (which never happened, as he never regained the form he had at the time of this fight).
@JohnBarrylizard7 років тому
Thanks for posting that -- it was awesome to read. Do you have any idea what Ali said to Folley after the fight?
@yourstickboy7 років тому
No, but probably good things that showed he respected Folley both as a boxer and a as a person. Folley’s son. who was 14 years old at the time was present at the fight. "I cried after that fight,” he recalled for the Arizona Republic twenty years later. “I think any kid would have. Ali told me to be proud of my father. He said if that fight had been 10 years earlier for my dad, the outcome might have been different.”
@dlogan16167 років тому
It's really cool to hear that article. A lot of people don't know Zora Folley was a pretty good fighter; he gave Prime Liston a very hard fight.
@ardalla5356 років тому

“There's just no way to train yourself for what he does: the moves, the speed, the punches and the way he changes style every time you think you got him figured. Wendell Newton, my sparring partner, jumped around and he was awkward, but he wasn't Ali. Ali is something else. I fought middleweights, even smaller men and they weren't as fast. This guy has a style all of his own. It's far ahead of any fighter's around today, so how could those oldtime fighters, you know, Dempsey, Tunney or any of them keep up? Louis wouldn't have a chance-he was too slow. Marciano couldn't get to him, and he would never get away from Ali's jab. The only one who would have a good chance was Ezzard Charles, a real fast heavyweight who was smart and was perhaps the best combination puncher of them all." Zora Folley

@drwhatnot10 років тому
To all you doubters and those who have never been in a fight, and certainly never in the ring.......Ali did NOT play with him. He did not play with anybody. "playing" was part of his strategy. Part of fighting. Folley was a solid fighter. He was world ranked, and hit Ali with some good shots in the early rounds. But Ali found Zora's rhythm by round 3. Ali had one basic goal plan with all his fights; he needed to get in position to throw his right over your left shoulder and hit your temple, jaw, or eye. the entire fight and every move is designed to allow him to get to that "killing angle" just in range and just outside your left lead foot. Watch in slow motion the last 20 seconds of the last round. Ali lands a good jab, he moves right, feints a few times, Folley jabs low and leaves the jab out there. Ali throws his best punch; a quick hard right over the left shoulder to the temple, Same punch he stopped Foreman with. Folley is stunned; Ali, in one amazing fluid move throws THE SAME EXACT PUNCH AGAIN to the same spot and Folley is unconscious before he hits the canvas. A DOUBLE RIGHT LEAD TO THE TEMPLE. Nobody can do this anymore. No pro heavyweight has ever had this unbelievable speed, balance, strength and ability. The best fighter I've ever seen. I sparred one round with Ali before the Evangelista fight in Maryland in the 1970's I think it was 76 or 77. I could not block his job at all and I could not get to him at all. He did whatever he wanted. Ali was the fastest and best heavyweight I've ever seen. Would've beaten Tyson easily. Would have taken Klitchko out in 5 or 6. Even Lennox Lewis would not have had the speed to deal with ALi.
