What a physical peak and what movement of Ali. I have never seen Ali look like this from the back: This content is protected Without Ali's exile, there would be a "different conversation" with Frazier.
The higher definition lets you see how defined Ali's musculature was here. A ripped 211 lbs. Definitely his physical peak.
The picture from youtube (Ali with raised arms) also shows that Ali's form is timeless. Everything, and the legs.
I think Ali decided to let Folley make a showing here for a couple of rounds,and lost them by default as a result. Zora seemed to lack punch resistance,but those right hands were quick and he never saw them coming.
Perfect combination of skill and athleticism. He was still in his late 20s when he returned from exile, but aside from Rumble in the Jungle, it never really seemed like he looked to optimize his fitness to its full extent anymore.
Ali looked absolutely fantastic, quick and sharp in Quarry II fight. He looked like peak version of himself by all accounts
