Muhammed Ali was absolutely brilliant here. He actually stole the show from Lewis. Articulate, quick wit and charming; Ali was a genius at promoting himself. There will probably never be another like him in the world of boxing. He was good for the sport. Not only for his showmanship but for his natural athletic ability and fighting skills. R.I.P. Ali.
it came over that way because ALI is irrepressible. and Lewis has his own show .ALI behind that mic ,would demand the camera stay on him.talk shows are all formula proven. guests come on to plug their latest film or fight, but they don't get to talk non-stop.Lewis paid him an appropriate comment, and he wouldn't even sit thru that .he IS the PT Barnum of boxing except that he often was selling himself, where as Barnum didn't have to dodge punches AND promote.why he ever thought he needed Don King (except to carry his gym bag) is a good question.
@@tonym994 Good comment Tony. Loved Lewis when I was a kid but got yo say he always came across as "Buddy Love" on his show. Bit disturbing how he effectively disowned his daughter who is homeless.
@@Chuckychazzathank you, but all our idols have feet of clay (no pun).ALI thought nothing of smacking a woman when she'd get on his nerves.but I don't think he bothered against his TAE KWON DOE belt holding wife in the mid-70's. and I think Buddy Love was probably closest to the real Jerry, anyway. I don't remember him having a show, just hosting for JC once in a while. I happen to think he was hilarious in his movies.I like Woody Allen ,too.not everyone howls w/ laughter at those guys, but I do. and CLAY/ALI was actually very funny at times. I remember my Dad (who didn't care for ALI personally)and me howling at ALI promoting a fight.''I'm knockin' out all bumbs''.the doc 'Brains ,Skill, and Guts'( 90 mins) is the best one on ALI, except that they didn't have moving pics of the Foreman fight, unfortunately. if Liston was 'deposed' by gangsters, or whoever, it was precisely because ALI was a born promoter, and they(as well as Jerry) recognized this. Liston, Patterson,Frazier, were just not nearly as entertaining as him.and he could flat out box!
PEOPLE SAID I MISSED MY PREDICTION, BECAUSE THE FIGHT WENT 10 ROUNDS. FIRST I SAID JONES IN 6 AND THEN I SAID JONES IN 4.....6 AND 4 IS WHAT! (10.)...AAAAAAA HAAAAA!!!!! Ali always on point! CLASSIC ALI!!
Phil lucky he didn't get his butt whooped. as for people hating on Jerry you gotta understand they there had never been an African American athlete like him before and white America had to adjust to the shock of this brilliant charismatic articulate man who was also a fighter. let's not forget how young Ali was. for him to be that poised around a heavyweight icon like Lewis was phenomenal imo
Ali was definitely the greatest. Jerry didn't think he had a chance against Liston. Lewis would be diffeent if Ali ever came back on his show. He was definitely not the King of Comedy in this interview
No wonder Dean Martin parted ways with Jerry Lewis. As Jerry Lewis grew in fame, he turned into an insufferable egomaniac and condescending prick. You can almost see the gears switching in Ali's head thinking, why the hell did I come here?!
one of my favorite comics and one of my favorite fighters.and I mean both are in my top 5. both killed it at their crafts.Lewis's films were his masterpiece, not this show, tho.
Back then, they were letting anybody have a show! And Ali should have whooped on both of those jealous,racist Clowns,right on national T.V. (That would have really been funny) Lol!!!
It looks like Lewis is trying to put Ali in his place except that early on in the interview Ali plays dumb. I dont know what Lewis was trying to do. Maybe he was tired.
why everyone hating on Jerry? he's just being himself. from other interviews I've seen with Jerry he always comes across a little rough after all he's from Brooklyn
The network spent a fortune on putting this garbage show on. It was like watching your old uncles in grandmas living room. It didn't last long, obviously.

Kiss,kiss
There will be few like him in the world of anything. If you haven't read it yet, read Jonathan Eig's biography. His story is extremely interesting.
Out of head
Jerry admitted it. He said I was a talk show host til now giving the nod to Ali.
What a class act Ali was, and what a creep Lewis was

@@tonym994 True
@@Chuckychazza thanx. the more I watch, I see 2 egomaniacs. but one is the host .ALI's ''you're welcome'' is brilliant.
Muhammad Ali was a badass
All I gotta say is amazing the greatest athlete that ever grace this earth!!!!
U r so right! I have a lot role model, but Ali by far the greatest human being I ever seen
The racism back then was insane.
Ya ya ya , is stupid siilly is is is
Just like you flowing S in your vein
Nothing has changed
Stonewalling...
@@ComaToast1 well things have definitely changed, but there is still racism.

The champ was brilliant!
I would have to think that Lewis lost a pile of money on this fight given his arrogance towards a very cordial Cassius Clay.
Your right on.
I agree
He always talks so brilliantly :-)
Ali Was a Natural Mystic!!!
Phil lucky he didn't get his butt whooped.

jesse owens, joe louis. wilt came right around then also...not usre about jim brown...
Ali is so damn good looking!!

Lucky Ali didn’t give him a slap 😂
Loved this.
There's something very detestable about Lewis. In contrast, something very lovable about Ali.
born w/ charisma.
@@tonym994 just like you, both detestable and loveable
@@meiyeelee800 I like half of what you say. peace out.
Now you see why Dean hated this guy
I'm just champion of the world by living in his days.
Classic and fashionable way. Good old days
Cassius Clay!!
Phil Foster was freaky he sounded like an angry drunk.
Gordon Owens Sounded like an angry drunk? He was an angry drunk!
now THAT I can see CLAY objecting to.
I thought i recognized him..ha@@tonym994
Oozing absolute envy

I see negative comment about jerry Lewis and Phil, why? They were excellent
Lewis is Art~ artistic~artistically ~rhythmiCally incline*_*
Hmm, lots of folks seem to hate Jerry's style.
I kinda liked it. Informal. Sassy. Cheeky. And even charming.

Maybe it was fixed.
Jerry is very unlikeable
37,000th view
This is not Cassius clay this is Muhammad Ali the greatest Muhammad Ali the king of boxing Muhammad Ali inshallah you will in best place in jannah
why everyone hating on Jerry? he's just being himself. from other interviews I've seen with Jerry he always comes across a little rough after all he's from Brooklyn
Brooklyn?, he's was born in Newark, and raised in Irvington.
The network spent a fortune on putting this garbage show on. It was like watching your old uncles in grandmas living room. It didn't last long, obviously.
Jerry Lewis is the most disgustingly patronizing and condescending entertainer.
Muhammad Ali and Conor mcgregor are very much alike
nah ... one has class and one no class ... re-think that !!! ..
I'm curious to understand why your wisdom thinks that ? ...
@Bac000 what are you looking for ?
Mp lance you must be a clown
Never ever! Muhammed Ali is the greatest forever! Wo is Mc Gregor?! Only a Clown.
