He may well have won on points had it not been for the cuts. It needs to be remembered,however,that Lennox was starting to come into the fight...
He would probably have gone down as the GOAT. There's no way that he'd have beaten Ali in 1974,though. Muhammad was still too fast and sharp...
Hope he's on the road to recovery soon.
If the 32 year old Ali was hard for Foreman to land many clean blows on,the 1967 version would be even better at that.
And younger.
A no brainer for me. Ali would have beaten Foreman by what was for him,a more conventional method. Floating like a butterfly as well as...
Sound logic. Circa 1972-74,Ali may have been the best he ever was since BEFORE the lay off,but not QUITE as good physically. It says much...
Yes it was damn well incredible.
Maybe I've missed something but why is it,when we're talking about the THIRD fight,the video clip is from the FIRST ?
True. Ali would never reach that level of conditioning again. If he had have done.he may have beaten Frazier slightly more easily in Manilla
Quarry II Norton II Frazier II Foreman
As I said on my earlier post,I interpret that as a moment of panic. Going on what we know about him,can you seriously imagine Ali quitting ?
My assessment exactly
Ali was really passed it by this point in his career. A couple of years earlier would have seen him stop Evangelista easily
Yeah,she was the first female boxer I really read about
