never understood the Ali hype. He was too easy to hit.

Ali el mas gtande por siempre

Todavia recuerdo como si fuere ayer este combate tan difundido y publicitado.

Sonny was in for a big surprise 😢

Ja sam tada imao 8 godina. Imali smo crno beli televizor tek godinu dana. Bio je to RR865, televizor Jugoslovenske fabrike elektronike iz Niša. Koštao je kao sada dobar mobilni, recimo 1000 evra. Plate nisu bile tolike pa je kupljen na kredit. Krediti su bili pristupačni ali tada si morao da imaš dva žiranta, što je danas nepotrebno a ako slučajno treba niko neće da bude nečiji žirant jer su vremena mutna. Moja baba Seka je volela Kleja. Kako je tada postao prvak sveta savladavši Sonija Listona. moja baba je tada imala 40 godina. Ona je ustajala u 03 h i palila tv da bi gledala Kleja. Deda se ljutio, bio je ljubomoran ali nije mu ništa vredelo. Deda Ranko tada je imao 59 godina. Ja sam bio mali a deda je izgledao kao deda. Sada ja imam 68 godina i pravim se da nisam deda. Zamišljam da sam KKlej, haha.

En rse tiempo no adoptaba el nombre de Ali, éste boxeador de caracterizaba por sus atino, osea él decía a éste lo saco tercer o al quinto asalto y lo sacaba a ese asalto.

Ali was a boxing machine with the reflexes of a cat! Probably the best boxer ever!

Sony Liston I believe was the best boxer Ali ever faced!

Cashus clay was beaten down by smoking Joe and cashus was in his prime. Rip Mr Joe

Oh no the infamous fathom punch again

So ice not to see Don Kings hair in the ring.

Youth and vigor overcame age and treachery.

Liston’s shoulder was definitely injured. The doctors verified that after the fight, in fact, he injured it in training for the fight. But he hadn’t trained hard for this fight, he never thought it royals go past the third round.

Ali was hard on punches. This was a great fight. Ali was a little bit too much.

What a fight 👿 . They were going at it.

Real sportsmen.

I really think Ali was white. U know I think Mike thought he was.

Where's Howard?

They fought after the bell because you’re supposed to “obey the ref’s commands,” but “protect yourself at all times.” If he doesn’t step in, the fight keeps going.

All important to who nobody I knew

The guy in the back typing with a cigarette lololol

Racist commentator called him a BOY

“Was There Really Something On Sonny Liston’s Gloves?”

"If I want to see two Negroes fight, I'll just drop a dollar out the window." - Miss Blankenship, Don Draper's late secretary in Mad Men

Somebody took a pay off

How about Ingemar Johansson and Floyd Patterson?

Those were the Great Old dàys!!!😊

I hate the way the commentator thought that he could script what , when and to whom Ali would speak . He obviously couldn't. He must've hated that

Referee ...What a Banker !!¬!!¬

I was in high school when this fight happened.

Where did "rope a dope" come from?

I remember listening to this fight on the radio. i was happy that Clay beat Liston. I hated Liston because he beat Floyd Paterson, who I thought was a great champion. I think this was the last night he was Cassius Clay. The next morming he was Muhammad Ali, after hanging out with Malcolm X after the fight.

Not sure why I fell in love with boxing at a very young age. Have loved to box, (neighborhood boys, Mom wouldn't allow me to fight girls) and cousins all my life. I know if I were born a boy, I would have boxed as a sport til I got too old😂 A senior citizen now, when no one is around, I still dance around and shadow box😊 Thanks for sharing this awesome fight! First time I've saw it and sure I'll watch again!...after I watch the second match between them 😊

Look at the guy behind him using a typewriter. Kids nowadays "What's a typewriter?"😅

O T ahoe taoe

El tahoe ta oe

Ali was really fast he used the hole ring

To bad Sonny would have won the fight Ali hit him with a fantom punch

He had almost as many hangers-on as Elvis did.

With duecrespect, i think a 22 y Mike Tyson would have taken out the 22 y Clay. There never was a lightingfast powerbomb like Iron Mike. He is my number 1 ever. He will dismantle that you tube joker even at his advanced age.

You can tell the guy interviewing at the end was bias towards Sonny. He wouldn't even let Ali speak at the end and automatically wanted a rematch right after the match ended

Never saw this fight. Spectacular.

This should be titled Sonny Liston vs. Cassius Clay. Please show respect to the champion.

Que le paso a Clay en el descanso del 5 round?

what a perfirmance from Ali !! im sure that no one can beat prime Ali

Ali and Liston

Clay. Messi. Same class .

Re: Spring 1965...Sonny is eliminated. I agree with many others that Clay was, perhaps, the best heavyweight boxer to ever step into the ring. That being said, I'm not sure that Clay ever beat Liston, and I'm not sure that he ever beat Norton. Just sayin'.

*PRA MIM ELE PERDEU. FOGE MAIS DO QUE LUTA.
