What Ali says is true and it applies to all sports. Make your opponent mad and have him lose his focus and you are half way towards beating him.
Yep he was the master at it,no better example than a 32 year old Ali knocking out the 24 year old Monster Foreman to take back his World Title,I still cant believe it.!!!!
Got to be one of the more amazing performances in boxing history that one. He owned Foreman's mind before and all through the fight.
Take into account Big George was knocked out once in his whole career even when he come back at 44 year old he went the distance with Holeyfield,gee that was the Golden era of Boxing,wish we could go back.!!!!
It would be interesting to see how today's heavyweights fared against the likes of Ali and Foreman. The Klitschkos might stand a chance with their height and reach advantages, but the rest would really struggle.
Think there was to much depth back then,talent has been a bit thin in the Heavyweight division for some time now,I know one thing they would not be as dominant if they were fighting back then.!!!!
Throw in Norton,Holmes,Shavers,Quarry and a bit earlier Liston I dont think we will see the likes of it again.!!!!
