George Foreman vs Muhammad Ali - Oct. 30, 1974 - Entire fight - Rounds 1 - 8 & Interview

[@macias7125]

Ali's first loss was to Frazier, Frazier's first loss was to Foreman, and Foreman's first loss was to Ali. If that doesn't tie the legacies of these legends even closer, I don't know what does.

[@harrishoward5924]

And none were the same after the losses.

[@Mozza-g2m]

Joe had a real heart, and that fight against Joe . Ali had the greatest respect for Joe frazier, and wanted Joe to win that fight against forman. Joe and Ali were friends before the fight. But there are things you've got to take into account about Joe and forman. Size ,the hardest puncher at the time and possibly in history. Frazier was a slugger, but foreman was an ultimate slugger. Ali was the technical ultimate boxer. He had a chin that was just as good as rocky m, if not better. There's only 4 boxers that knocked him down, but IMO, I'm only classing 3. Ali himself said the hardest hit that sent him to the floor and had his wobbling back to his corner was from Cooper. That left from Cooper would've ko'd most boxers, but Ali was no ordinary boxer . He was the greatest boxer because after a few rounds, he could figure the boxers technique, use his length and his defensive to technique to nacker out, and then go in for ok win and hits psychology talk put people on a disadvantage. But that's just IMO. But I can't help thinking after Cooper knocked him down and if there was another minute or a minute and a half, if he could've won

I was in the UK when this fight took place. I had grown up watching Ali, from when he first fought Henry Cooper ( as Clay then). He became my absolute hero, and revolutionised what a heavy weight boxer could be. When Ali fought Fireman I genuinely feared for him. Because of the time difference I woke in the morning fearfully listening to the news on the BBC expecting to hear that Ali had been destroyed. The sheer joy I felt when the result was broadcast, was mixed with amazement. I am now over 70, but this victory still stands out as the greatest sporting victory in my life. I still watch it, and still get goosebumps with a smile on my face.

@@MrEjidorie Foreman was a young & inexperienced boxer with a horrible Trainer- Dick Sadler who never adjusted George's fighting strategy after he was beginning to get tired and playing into Ali's trap on the ropes. Even Ali's trainer Angelo Dundee, said that he would've had Foreman positioning himself in the center of the ring and refusing to go to the ropes. Would George have won with a better trainer and an unbiased Ref, probably not, but the fight would've been much closer and exciting. This was a boring fight and Ali's fights against Norton were boring as well. His best fights were against Frazier.

I am, I was a golden glove boxer when I was a young man. I listened to the Ali, Liston fight on the radio. Ali was definitely my all time hero. I’m a 74 year old Irish American. The Ali Frazier fight three was a battle of will and heart. The best fight I have ever seen. Two of the greatest warriors. I was fortunate enough to be at the Los Angeles Olympics. When he came into watch the fight with his daughter and bodyguard. The stadium went completely silent until he sat down. I used to go to Los Vegas to watch fights before they cost a damn kidney to get in. I saw Ali, three other times in person at fights. What a wonderful humanitarian and diplomat for not just boxing but to the United States, his freedom and belief in his religion. A brilliant, wonderful boxer, his ability to connect with people.

It happened that way because Ali was so fast and infinitely smarter than Foreman in the ring. Watch it again and notice the frequent hand jostling segments. Foreman's trick was to push his opponent's guard hands down. Then unleash a power punch or a flurry while the man was defenseless. A dirty trick if you ask me. The hand jostling in this fight was Ali spoiling Foreman's trick. And often, as Foreman attempted to push Ali's hands down, the GOAT would quickly smack him. Nobody else had the speed to do that. Foreman, being the ring "genius", he was...didn't adapt. He kept trying his old dirty tricks on Ali as Ali constantly pushed Foreman's hands away and smacked him. Time and time again. Again, no other fighter was smart enough and fast enough to pull off what Ali did.

I originally watched this fight live on tv, I was 14, I'd seen Foreman absolutely destroy both Frazier and Norton. Even as a huge Ali fan I just couldn't see him beating Foreman, just about every sports writer had Foreman winning by early knockout. I was elated that he won, but felt guilty about doubting him. Watching the fight now, I can see that it was a relatively easy win for Ali, he won practically every round, George is almost dead on his feet after round 3, and obviously we now know that Ali had probably the strongest chin in heavyweight boxing. It all looks so simple now, but at the time everyone thought Ali's tactics were wrong, until he proved he was right.

The only fight in Ali's career that I would have bet the house that he had NO chance to win. I was wrong. Foreman (for you youngsters who don't remember) was the 70's version of Mike Tyson. NO ONE lasted more than a couple of rounds with the Monster, George Foreman. He was a terrifying man in the ring who had destroyed everyone that Ali had lost to. Besides the Tyson-Douglas and Clay-Liston fights, this was an upset of epic proportions. God Bless you Muhammad, you will be loved and missed.

@BF4pawntard Even though I grew up in the Ali era, as a female, I could never watch boxing because it was so brutal to me. Ok, Ok, I know... anyways, came here to review this fight because I just watched the movie "Ali" and wanted to compare the real fight to the movie. What I don't understand (and I know nothing about boxing) is: (1) Why Foreman's corner didn't direct him to back up, make Ali get off the ropes and come to center ring. To me, looked like Ali was "resting" on the ropes, just waiting for Foreman to fatigue. (2) Ali kept hanging on Foreman's neck, pulling him down, furthering Foreman's fatigue. Shouldn't that have been a foul? IMO, Ali won by strategy and "outsmarting" Foreman, and GF's team should have figured that out and directed him how to handle it. Ali was a great fighter, I know that, but I liked his sense of humor and his attitude. He was also GREAT at marketing himself. He was an intelligent man. However, George Foreman just seems like the nicest man, the kind of man you would invite to your family barbeque (using the GF Grill of course!).

[@thefamousdjx]

@@TrustKnowWun Yep he got outsmarted pretty badly. Boxers be thinking they are winning if they keeping someone on the ropes, its like a dog has seen a bone lol only in this case its just a trap. Mayweather does the same thing too. If someone's defense is too good don't let them be resting and catching breathes on the ropes because u gonna keep missing and losing energy much faster, drained by the time u hit the 6th round. I remember when I was young I used to play karate with a friend and he always kept his cool, blocking taking his time while I was always on the attack doing every move I would have seen in the movies 😂 and I always lost because by the time he start his attacks I would be too tired smh

Today marks the 50th anniversary of this fight, which is undoubtedly one of the greatest fights in the history of boxing. What gives this fight even more significance is the fact that 20 years after this, Foreman will again become the world champion, the oldest in the history of the heavyweight division, in a completely different era against a completely different generation of boxers. And he never lost by knockout again. Ali remained the only man to do it. A testament to Ali's greatness and the quality of the heavyweight division in the 1970s, which was at its peak then. This generation of heavyweights is the best ever. The only flaw for me is that this remained the only fight between these two ATG heavyweights, that, unlike Ali and Frazier for example, they never had a rematch.

I wanted to know was it all just blind hope or was there tangible evidence to believe in any god. After a decade of study I can say this as fact, ALL religions are based on 100% BLIND FAITH but one....Biblical Christianity. Its the only one the offers tangible evidence that you can relay on, in fact it the on;y one that even tries to. The Old Testament (Hebrew Bible) foretold the entire history of Israel before it came to pass, including its total destruction by Rome in 70 AD, its 2000 year diaspora into all nations across the earth and its 1948 rebirth as a nation. No other nation on earth has ever been completely destroyed and reborn but one, Israel. And the whole thing was predicted in exact detail 2600 years ago in the OT. Its so precise it even gave a mathematical prophecy that pinpointed 1948 AD as the rebirth some 2600 years ago. And it took 2 World Wars and the holocaust to make it happen, and make it happen just when the Bible predicted. And that is but one single example of tangible REAL evidence it gives that its divine in origin. Everything about Christ from his birth, crucifixion, His rejection by His people, the church age, the fact that His church would be made up of mostly Gentiles instead of Jews. From ancient times it lays out all this word changing stuff that would follow and did follow. No other religion on earth even tries to do that. They can't because time will expose it as a fraud. Sitting here in 2022 we would KNOW the Bible was a fraud if it was, instead we KNOW it gives countless impossible supernatural proof that its what it claims to be.

@Senior Billy Bull to each it’s own

[@raigeforster5404]

@Senior Billy Bull its been proven that if ali was around in any of these times he would've been better than he was then. Ali was only as good as his environment allowed him to be. He was so good because there were so many other good fighters in his Era and if he had have been around in other eras he would've trained harder and practiced on each of those specific fighters weaknesses. Ita simple boxing science and ali had it down to a T. Hell he even missed his 3 years of what all professional fighters and commentators say are the prime of boxers from 27-30 due to the war

But the question was greatest sports performance in history. Shattering a mile and a half record by 2 seconds, a record which stands today, easily, gets my vote. Secretariat wasn't even the greatest American race horse. I'd give that honor to Man o' War. But Secretariat's Belmont performance is unrivalled, imo.
