    I gotcha.
    The audience for his post weren't film people, so that is probably why it was presented that way. Sort of a "This is what I found in my attic, and this is what I turned it into" kind of thing.

    Whereas for you, and people who do this on a professional level, his presentation doesn't tell as much, because it's not clear how effective the scripts and plugins were in comparison to the actual transfer? Is that right?

    Can you identify any positive results of him using techniques beyond the actual transfer based on the two versions?
    Or does much of his post transfer work seem superfluous to you?

    He threw that same kind of barrage of jabs at Lyle in the 5th round of their fight setting up the KO

    Yes he did, Ali was his hero. He trained by replicating Ali but right before he entered the ring for his debut, Dick Sadler told him to plant his feet and knock the guy out.....which he did.

    Foreman`s head movement is bad here he is open to straight shots because he doesn`t move his head while coming forwards, but having said that he evaded a number of straight shots here by using his extra height by pulling his head back as the straight punch came like Curry used to but this would be more difficult against a super heavy with long reach.

    Strange session. Can any of you experienced trainers explain what he's working on here? It seems like the camera closeups keep focusing on things that he's doing poorly (especially the footwork and stance).

    I'm no trainer, but I got the impression he was practicing defence.

    Exactly right. The man came back almost 20yrs later to regain the Heavyweight Championship against a legit fighter. And gave another ATG in Holyfield hell while in his 40's. Some try to down grade him because he lost to a past prime Ali, when he was prime. I see it as how truly great Ali was, and one of the many reasons Ali deserves the G O.A.T at Heavyweight.
