I wanna cry when ali kiss the medal 😢 RIP champ the greatest of all time muhammad ali
This makes me so happy. I love how much respect everyone in that stadium has for him, even the Yugoslavian team. Amazing
+Tori Levine why Yugoslavians wouldn't respect him? If you didn't know he wisits Yugoslavia at 1960 and do sum great things for their people. In his memoars publisht in 2006 he thalks how he remembers of great night life in Gradiska, litlle pleace in YU.
+rassimvfr what I meant is that both teams were so respectful, and it made me so happy to see that even the opposing team were happy for him. That's all I meant, I promise
Same here mate.......
@@rassimvfr What he know? He is McDonald's Generation.
Whay would You think that Yugoslavian players wouldn't respect Ali.
A great man, he also flew out to Iraq before the start of the first Gulf war, and negotiated the release of 15 hostages, from Saddam Hussein.
Saddam actually said via interpreter I cannot let Haji Muhammad Ali leave empty handed.
Loved all over the world.
My family remembered this and we were talking about it last night. We could have taken things from that point differently there. Hussein was awful but he was rational and Iraq was not our affair. Our country was misled.
Amazing, Ali melts your heart when you meet him, out of love and admiration Sadamm let them go. 1989 I spent all day with him in Dallas with my Dad
@Michael Ares fuck you
@Michael Ares what are you talking about ?
@Michael Ares you are a bastard
Ali is the living legend. He's been very most popular in Indonesia for decades. He inspired all of us how to be a winner without a loser feel be defeated. We like him.
They playing Superman's music. Ali whooped Superman.
I've seen this six time and I JUST NOTICED the Superman music. I was watching THE LOVE shown to Ali ,by the dream team,AND the opposing team.THAT IS GREATNESS.
I had that comic book. Read it to shreds.
yeah me too I've just noticed now even though I've seen this clip before I think they played this theme cuz he's black superman Also u can feel some part of 90's too
RIP ALI 🥊
That’s why he is the greatest of all time.
R.I.P champ ❤️❤️❤️
Nonono.
He WAS Superman.
RIP to the GREATEST! He was an extraordinary example of a human being.
He is in the Pantheon: Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Babe Ruth, Jerry Rice... Muhammad Ali, you will be missed.
RIP indeed
That's the American pantheon, not the world pantheon. Saying that, Ali and Jordan would still feature.
Gretzky too, though of course he's not American but Canadian.

Let the record show that Mohammed Ali is the GREATEST.
Muhammad*
He is without doubt the greatest of all time 💔💔
When even world-class athletes look to you in reverence as an athlete... LEGEND.
You're in the heaven now, but you're always alive in our hearts, you're a human race treasure. RIP Ali the greatest 🙏
Cowards don't go to heaven sir.
Ali was 54 years old here! I was born on MAY 18 , 1963...*..I'll be 54 in 2 weeks! To see this now ( I was 33 then) makes me feel even more sad now that I am the same age he was when he was going through those terrible health issues! A CHAMP till the end! RIP~* Muhammad Ali & thank you for what you did for this little Italian from Pittsburg Ca. I watched you since your comeback in 1970 ( I was 7)..I loved you ever since! YOU are the reason there is so much $$ in SPORTS today!! When he gets it put on and cracks a smile and kissed it and the " Dream Team" came up to him....tears! That was very moving in 1996 and even more today!
I was also born May 18th 1963. Don't know why I felt the need to post this, but I was surprised when I read your reply. :-)
@@apefilms7221 ✌️2 questions, what time of that Saturday on 5/18/63 were you born? ( myself 3:05 am) and what surprised you about my response? Blessings fellow Taurus✊
happy 59th burfday soon this year amigo!
He always looked majestic,confident and at peace with himself and everyone. RIP The Greatest
When all other people dream to have an autograph from the NBA stars then, all the NBA stars are busy taking a snapshot with Ali.
Ali was the most respected and undeniably the greatest athlete of all time in any place in any sport.
RIP Champ :)
Well said... ❤
YNWA dude
One of the greatest moments in my life.... so blessed to be a part of such an historic event.
You were there?
Who are you? Were you at location?

What touched me, was how the bb players came out to hug him nd hold him. So much level of gratitude and respect
Like we got u Champ
I was never a boxin fan but i knew of ur greatness and impact Champ
RIP GOAT 💔

WOW! Lol...he does have that huge impact on people and me as well...

That's great man
Did ur wife know about "u love someone more than her
Happy 80th Birthday to GOAT. Love from Hyderabad, India. 17th January 2022 Respect.
We, all the people, are very very thankful we lived at the same era with this man. We are so lucky !
all nba stars around Ali. they know. they remember. great scene!
Watch how the Yugoslavian player touched Ali's hand at 4:09
Much respect ❤❤❤
that was Aleksandar Djordjevic the best european PG of all time !
Damn why did this make me closed my eyes and felt weak seeing him like that? And what a wonderful scene when players hugged him and taking some pictures.
I felt them 💔😢
I was 9 when my family & I came to the U.S.A. (1972) My Dad spoke of this GREAT BOXER.... All I hear was Ali this, Ali that... He loved the man!!!!! Deceased that same year. When Ali fought in 1974, I watched the ENTIRE FIGHT on tv. I remembered my Dad💔😢💕. And today I remembered ALI 💕💔
May BOTH R.I.P. 💕
The Greatest Ionic figure of modern history! We see Ali as a world class boxer. We can
study Ali and see he was one of the greatest psychologist,Poet and Entertainer. What an incredibly talented and intelligent man from a very young age. Trinidad and Tobago loved Ali and broadcast or televised his fights. Those were the days when a boxer was an artist in the ring, crafty (Art of deception) and skillful. Today boxers are fighters, most have not develop the footworks, hip and upper body movement, rhythm or timing to fully master the art. It has been years since I seen a great entertaining boxing match. We have missed Muhammad Ali for such a long time, as his voice was beautiful and a great strength to us all. We have lost many of our public figures the last few years. The world was made greater because of Ali, and forever grateful He stepped forward and lead us in that direction, for we had no inclination he was taking us on this magnificent journey.
Thank You Champ! The G. O. A. T.
What a fucking living legend ladies and gentlemen!
He changed his story, but he could not have known how much his story was going to mean to people when he told it--true or false--as a young man. He gets a pass from me, whichever story is the truth.
Damn, when he looked down at that medal draped around his neck and looked up at the crowd you could just see the real joy he must have felt.
I'm crying like a little kid! God bless you, Mr. Ali!
That moment when he smiled and kissed the medal nearly broke me.
Watching the young American basketball stars cluster around a man they all clearly idolized brought tears to my eyes. But watching the Yugoslavian players then come out and surround him with the same warm feelings of respect I think speaks to Ali's universal appeal. He is truly a hero for the world; universally admired and loved in all countries. I can't think of anyone else who has ever had the world-wide love that he so rightfully possesses.
It was a crime for our govt. to ban him from boxing for 2 or 3 years in his prime!!! They had no legal right!

Respect cannot be bought by money. It's earned through actions. Muhammed Ali-the respect he earned from the people around world is unbelievable. ..
Never before has a gold medal been more deserved , RIP champ .
RIP COWARD!
For generations to come, people will remember and celebrate the life of Muhammad Ali. What a man! What a moment for all of us to see again what he achieved as a 18-year old.
i see so many great player in this video, but the face that stood above all the Muhammad Ali's even with this disease he looked so compose and confidence. RIP #GOAT
Daaammmnnnn he was pretty...even prettier than everyone I saw there and I am not even joking! Rest Papa!
I agree
I was watching this on TV when it happened. I'll never forget that view of him looking upwards lucidly toward the camera with that timpani roll. It will stick with me as long as I live.
That's so cool. You can literally see the genuine joy and appreciation that Team USA & Yugoslavia had for the Champ.
Величайший боксер всех времён!!! Талант на ринге, интеллектуал, порядочный. Пусть всевышний дарует врата рая. Аминь!
Still handsome, Mr. Ali
yes
Rip..the epitome of sporting greatness
Great man with an even greater heart! He is a true inspirational figure to millions of people. Love u man.
It's amazing to see all these super dooper famous basketballers all in awe at the greatest athlete of all time. They are mesmerised in his presence.
I've watched this like ten times and still tear up. It's great to see all these great ball players around him like lil kids in awe of a true legend. The G.O.A.T will live forever!!!!
I admit, I choked up a little. Wish I had been there to cheer.
BREAKS MY HEART TO SEE HIM LIKE THIS💔💔😢
R.I.P. CHAMP!!!!!!!!
Respect means when professional athletes like the DREAM TEAM, guys who have it all, bow and salute someone who they know, will live forever.
RIP Ali.
Ali is part of some of the reasons why they are where they are today and were back then thats why they respect that Charles made certian that he personally thanked him good stuff..

THE LEGEND, THE ICON, THE CHAMP, THE GREATEST MUHAMMAD ALI
holy shit for a grown man i'm crying like a baby watching this man! Knowing Ali career it is super fantastic seeing him happy despite all the pain he is at when this was taken. RIP my man, greatest of all time!
Aww the way he smiled when they came to hug him, I love you Ali!!
what a moment... there were no losers after this match, when something like this happened!
Are u alive???
Muhammad, you kept us alive for so long, and I wished you could of been Champion forever. from the day I took the sip of water out of the fountain at school in the afternoon, in 1964, when I kid yelled " Cassius Clay is fighting Sonny Liston Tonight, to the " Rumble in the Jungle" beating George Foreman. You did shake up the world, and you were funny. Today is November 2016, and I miss you so much my friend. you will be truly missed!! Gone, but not forgotten !!
@Xzefreeman it did bring me to tears, crying now :'( there is something about the old ones, when they are touched they have a look on their faces that speaks volumes in silence
He's the greatest sportsman.. of ALL TIME.
Seeing that smile made me so happy
Смотрю и слёзы, Великий Человек, Легенда Бокса, Величайший Али, Светлая Память. 🙏🙏🙏🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Maan I cried while watching this , RIP CHAMP ❤
I cried watching this. What an inspiration this man is
What speaks volumes is not the fact that American media and athletes celebrated this but that the Yugoslavian basketball players sought out the opportunity too. Ali, was, is and will only ever be the truest of all global athletes. Epic!
great, great figure. legend, History! from Brazil, hugs!!
Dam I remembered watching that day doesn't feel like it was 20 years ago. ..Ali reached a happy time that day glad you did...much respect great man RIP
Filipino guy here, 35 years old, and Muhammad Ali is one of my heroes. He transcends cultures and races. He had wisdom beyond his time and age. Watching this video warms my heart.
What other athlete could ever expect to receive such a welcome and have so many
great athletes in awe. He was by far the worlds most amazing and endearing athlete.
That was beautiful ! So much respect for this man, for what he has accomplished in his boxing career and more importantly in life, especially for civil rights and human rights.
He was larger than life and he's an example for us all, may The Greatest rest in peace.
Brought tears to my eyes . . . Just an amazing man . . . and I don't even like boxing! Ali . . . truly the greatest . . .
The GREATEST OF ALL TIME
MOHAMMAD ALI THE LEGEND FOREVER.

I hope you guys will renew this comment every year 😎❤️
ali makes me cry...fuck knows why. Most beautiful and graceful boxing style ever cant get enough of his old fights
I love this man! The greatest of the Great!
Hlo
Are u alive man..........
Bro you commented this when I wasn't existing
The GOAT ❤️🐐
thank you so much for all those great memories ALI.
we love you always.
Charles Barkley said to Ali "Thank you very much if it wasnt for you I wouldnt here...... hes RIGHT MUHAMMAD ALI the GREATEST..
Such a great respectful day for him .
Greatest Of All Time. Mohammad Ali is not famous for Boxing instead Boxing is famous for Mohammad Ali
Most loving part was he SMILED.
A true champion and an amazing human being ... love you champ
Oh Man! That smile ❤️❤️❤️
the way he perfectly timed it with the music when he raised both of his hands up in the end, mastermind
I grew up as a boy listening to Ali's fights on a transistor radio in bed, past my bedtime, in the days before cable and pay per view. When we would have to wait weeks for the fight to be rebroadcast on television. I can't help but cry every time I see him at these kind of ceremonies. For to see the human who was the epitome of speed, grace, endurance, courage stripped of his physical prowess and verbal quickness is sobering reminder of the spiritual lessons he himself always preached.
may Allah keep you safe, my friend
There was no one like Ali, There will b no one like Ali.
He earned respect. Allah SWT gave him this respect all over the world.
This still makes me cry after all of these years
This made me cry. Really 😢
I met the Champ three times. He was the same in person as you’d imagine; witty, generous, and warm. RIP.
Lucky man on this planet 👍
Legends never die ... they live for years and century as an example for what he did to humankind.. G.O.A.T. M.Ali 🤛🤜
Only fitting that the superman music play when he came.
RIP to The Greatest
That mischievous smile on his face...how i love this man...Muhammad Ali an exceptional human being
I Love this man so much thank you for everything Ali 👑❤🙏🦁
