Ali had a very limited vocabulary so he was a 1-dimensional bullshit dispenser with his favorite subject being himself. His boxing skills were badly flawed. He lacked any inside game and body attack. He lacked defensive skills to get away from left hooks and got hurt and dropped by left hooks from guys as small as 185 pounds. He fought far fewer fights than many, but was hurt far worse than almost any. He was left totally disabled -- both mentally and physically.

Greatest heavyweight boxer ever, beat more great heavyweights than any other champion by a mile. But what I also liked about Ali was the pre fight trash talk, the post fight analysis, the training footage, interacting with his fans, and his tv appearances/interviews, just so entertaining. What rarely gets mentioned about Ali , is how mentally tough he was, he fought all over the world against boxers in their own back yards, he was never intimidated by champions who were supposed to be unbeatable, Liston and Foreman. And he even fought his own government and won.

@Ahmed-mr4xo ... "Ali fought all over the world against boxers in their own back yards" Canada, England and Germany doesn't qualify as all over the world. And Ali fought 5th rate bums like Brian London, who didn't have the ghost of a prayer. Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk of Ukraine, fought world title fights in Russia, Latvia, USA, Canada, Germany, Poland, and England versus the top fighters in the world from those countries. His country is the most war-torn in the world, so it may be years before he fights there again, if ever. Ali was in tragic decline at Usyk's age. The Ukrainian is a veteran of 371 amateur and professional fights.

[@fights1397]

22:00 is awesome. The speed and variety of his feinting overloaded the opponents brain to stop functioning and he just stand there taking punches lol

[@Alan_CFA]

That right at 14:34 “It was a right to Liston’s jaw and it was a beauty. It shook Liston to his shoe tops” according to former champion James Braddock who was at ringside. “That shot shivered Liston. He blinked his eyes three times, like he was trying to clear his head”, per trainer Chickie Ferrara who was watching closely near Liston’s corner. The knockout punch was 38 seconds later and it was a temple shot that lifted Liston’s left foot off the canvas. A real knockout, not a fix.

[@icewaterslim7260]

Liston had the bad habit of keeping his head and chin up while fighting out of a crouch. Like with Leotis Martin he got caught moving into two that hurt him but I didn't see the kind of loss of balance that indicates a separation of senses when he was trying to rise. That rollover didn't have the appearance of authenticity. I don't believe he was hurt badly enough to not beat that long count . . . For whatever reason.

[@darrellowings2343]

One of a kind. I never knew how tough he was until I watched him fighting Frazier. Most don't think of him that way. He's the cavalier the matador. He was also as tough as they come. Those body shots by Frazier make me wince to watch them. True champion. In that era, we had the one time ever privilege of seeing four champions in their peak fighting it out. Greatest era for the division and he stood at the top.

Frazier never fought some of the better boxers of his time like Mac Foster, Earnie Shavers, Ken Norton, etc Joe Frazier KO'ed 14 opponents within 3 rounds (that's pretty good, considering he had only 37 fights). But it turns out that ALL of them were bums (median career record of these bums 11-23) except for 2 opponents: ·Bob Foster 188 lbs (= cruiser) and ·Dave Zyglewycz 190 lbs (= cruiser) whom tiny Frazier (hold your hat) out-weighed, out-reached and out-talled. Dave Zyglewycz has been called "the worst guy to ever get a title shot" and once you check his wins (ONLY bums, median record 10-16) you will have to agree.

I have nothing against Ali but like all of us, he was a flawed human being. His fans won't hear of it, they borderline worship him, which is a sin. The issue I have regarding the military suspension relates to life at the time. If you weren't alive then maybe it doesn't 'feel' the same to you. My brother was in Viet Nam, I almost had to go. We all knew guys who didn't return or returned badly injured. Many still suffer today from physical/psychological damage. At the time we didn't know that the war was based on evil greed. We believed that an individual was an unpatriotic coward if they wouldn't go. Poor people had no option, they all went including poor blacks. 'Famous' people went, many well-known star athletes had their careers interrupted by war, but they went. I'm not sure how I feel today about his claim of religious exemption. All Christians could have claimed the same thing, the 5th commandment says, 'Thou shall not kill'. Based upon that it seems Christians could have objected, but I don't know anyone who did. The bottom line was, if you were poor, middle class or upper middle class, you went. If you were patriotic, you went. Ali is the only one that I know of that claimed religious exemption, although I know there were others. Many left the country, went to Canada to 'hide'. When soldiers are routinely dying in war and someone refuses to go, it's understandable that most would consider them to be cowardly. I heard a lot of people say that Ali didn't mind fighting and hurting people for money in the ring, so his excuse seemed shallow to them. I don't know his heart, but that's how it was at the time.
