    Everybody thought that Big George was invincible but Ali won this match with KO on Big George. Ali's punches were good controlled and fast. Ali was smart and had always a strategy.
    Foreman was like an uncontrolled bulldozer.
    But, Ali controlled the match like a good programmed tactical weapon and finally won this match.
    Ali was The Greatest Boxer of all Time.
    Foreman was also a great boxer, no doubt, with it's typical Big George powerfull punches.
    Thanks to the two legends for this unforgettable excellent match.!
    We will never forget you champ, Muhammad Ali.!

    I was a teenager when that happened. Most in my school thought Foreman would win. I was an Ali fan, and was afraid George would hurt Ali. I was wrong of course, and very happy Ali won. I have much respect for Foreman, enjoyed his later career, a better boxer as an older person. George is a class act today and a good person.

    Muhammad Ali's defense, hand speed and tactics were incredible against the bigger and more powerful George Foreman. Most of his punches found the target on George's face while George found it very difficult to land clean punches on Ali's face, hence he directed most of his punches to Ali's torso. These body punches might have finally worn off Ali had the fight progressed beyond Round-8. Ali's extensive experience proved too much for George's reliance on his physical superiority.

      Foreman did similar thing to Fraizer. All I see here is an Ali who tactically neutralized Foremans agrees sion and physical prowess but beat him with superior skill. And there is another thing Ali brought to the table that he doesn't do normally, his guards were up throughout...up and frustrating for foreman.

      Foreman hit harder for sure but even George said he underestimated Ali’s physical strength. He wasn’t able to shove Ali around like other opponents. Their height and weight were very similar with George being more muscular but Ali more athletic type of build. George never saw anyone with that type of hand speed and it was on full display that night.

    Im a boxer and I have been doing it for 3 years now. I just wanna say this man is the greatest of all time and he lived to be a true inspiration in my life. This man is why I box today. I got to talk with his grandson who recently turned pro about a year ago in boxing Nico Ali Walsh. I thought I was in his grandfather's presence because he just looked so much like him in a way and it was just a legendary experience. This fight has inspired me so much because Ali lost to Joe Frazier and Ken Norton and every one thought he was finished. But he came back stronger than ever and beat Joe and then whooped Ken Norton who had just got knocked out by George Foreman his last fight. They all said this fight was the end for Muhammad Ali, but he came through and proved everyone wrong. Knocking George out in the 8th round with like 25 seconds to go before the bell rang. My favorite quote is "Hard times create champions. Easy times create weak champions." Now I don't know who said that quote but I heard it once and it has always stuck with me. The point is Ali had to go through all sorts of shit after he lost those two fights, but he didn't let it phase him. He came back stronger showed what a champion is. Thank you Muhammad Ali.
    Praise be to you and god.
    Rest In Peace Legend.

    George had incredibly poor endurance. That was his Achilles heel and Ali knew it and took advantage. George fought a guy named Peralta in 1971. Peralta used the rope a dope and George almost lost because of endurance. Ali must have seen it. Ali being smart as well as fast got the job done. Ali had excellent endurance and could take it. This fight should have been Ali's last fight. He didn't need to take anymore punishment. That caused his punchy condition . It worsened his parkinson' disease. Know when to walk away. He might still be around. R.I.P A true GOAT.

    The end of the 5th round, thanks to George’s iron chin we got to see the baddest man showing what made him the baddest man to ever live. The lightning speed, pinpoint accuracy and brute power on full display. It’s absolutely beautiful.

    Thanks CZcams. I was very young at the time and there was no television yet in my country, so everyone was suspended by the ear to their radio transistors, either individually or in clusters with the sacred instrument of broadcasting placed in the centre of a yard for all to hear. The evening felt heavier and hotter than usual. We, youngsters, were playing football, satelliting around the adults to gauge their mood. We sensed that the issue of the match will determine any future happiness or grumpiness for weeks.
    It seemed like an eternity...we felt ignored by the adults, without fully comprehending how 2 perfect strangers, in a foreign (albeit neighbouring country) could summon the attention of a whole nation.
    Then the ROOOAAAAR. Like an earthquake. " Ali has beaten Foreman ". People screaming, crying of joy, kneeling in thankful prayers, scooping us lil'ones up to their shoulders, aw how many of us became Alis!❤❤
    Never forgot that moment as a tiny little girl. And now, to be able to see the images, accompagnied by those mysterious voices that reached us through a radio, my emotion is at its peak. It is heavenly. So thankful. ❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

    Ali a true sportsman, much wiser than his opponents knew full well how to carry out his strategy with clinical accuracy. He never looked out of control. To those who were watching he appeared to be training a junior. Fully confident, full of energy. Super human. That was a century of great boxing legends, Joe frazier, George foreman and Muhammed Ali.

    Today's boxers like Joshua, Wilder looks so big but there are so rigid on their feet and styles. They only rely on punch power....but boxing is so much more than just blind punching....Ali was so nimble on his feet and his jabs were lightning fast. No matter how many times you watch this fight....it's like a boxing Bible for all. How he used his body weight on Foreman just to tire him out in those humid conditions.

  • @noahdavidson8733

Ali believed in himself, believed in God (Allah- as referred to by Jesus) & took home the title. He checked his haters and all the people who doubted him.. he put Elijah Muhammad on a pedestal..a great black speaker. Motivational speakers are important. I loved this for him! I just wish that man at the end Shut up more and let him pop his sh!t ‼️

      the announcers talking about how dejected george looked afterwards apparently didn't recall the faces of joe and ken after george smashed them in 2 rounds. ali didn't throw a phantom punch but it did seem like a phantom count. (george was up at 9)! nothing shameful about losing to ali: the smartest, fastest and bravest of boxers. i couldn't believe this fight when i first saw it at age 9 and i can't believe it watching it for the 500th time tonight. i hope george the multimillionaire sticks around for a good long while.

    • @johnlumpkin8851
      @johnlumpkin8851 Před 4 měsíci +6

      The REFEREE count IS actually a full 10 count; the problem is people are only paying attention to the ANNOUNCER, Bob Sheridan, who unwittingly counts what was actually NINE as eight. Instead of 8, Sheridan says, “gets up to the knee …”. Watch from the 51:53 mark onward and follow the count of the REF, not Sheridan.

    George never wanted to admit that he was angry and frustrated that Ali had too much style and charisma and was a much harder puncher than people said he was. He did take his dance away but but the fight was also mental. Ali tormented him, live on t.v, upfront, and in Africa. 😂❤😊 Remember in Africa warrior mentality is to never give up and to fight to the death.
