Zbigniew Pietrzykowski had knocked out arguably the greatest amateur boxer ever in Lazlo Papp, was at his physical peak at 25 years of age, was a brilliant southpaw stylist/technician who at the time had over 200 bouts under him and had won and competed in the top tournaments around the world yet it is a testament to the GREATNESS of Muhammad Ali that he was able defeat this brilliant fighter whilst he was ONLY 18 years old, when he had still not developed his man strength and was still growing and the fact that he had far less experience than his southpaw opponent, simply amazes me.

Mr. Ali was already a master boxer at 18 years old he was fighting and extremely heavy-handed fighter that could end a fight with one punch. Mr Ali was slipping punches with ease so well that unless you've watched a lot of fights you think the guy just missed. Slipping punches is one of the most difficult techniques to learn and he seems to have mastered it at an early age he truly was a great champion inside and outside the ring.

[@RexStewartoriginals]

Awesome fight. Really cool that this was uploaded for people to watch. Never thought I would ever get to see Ali's gold medal match in the Rome Olympics. Both fighters were REALLY good. You don't see amateur boxers in the Olympics like this, any more. The only boxer I've seen, who was up there with these two, in the Olympics, was the super heavyweight gold medalist in 1992, Roberto Balado, a Cuban dude. That dude was GOOD. Course he died in a car crash 2-3 years after he won gold. Ali was this promising fighter back then. If you see a polished amateur, it's not always a good sign. That's why you could kinda imagine what Ali mighta thought of his performance in this final fight. Some of those rights were really really weak. You win the gold, you take off the 'amateur' training wheels, you're a new man AND a new boxer. Knowing what we know of Ali now, as the 'Greatest' boxer of all time, it didn't even look like he had any extra pressure on him against Pietrzykowski. But he probably did.

Amazing fight, with all the respect to Ali for his future accomplishments and his age at the time of this fight, I think Ziggy won first two rounds, and the commentator’s comments were one sided favoring his countryman. I think Ziggy should have won the Gold medal, but it wasn’t meant to be. Both of the fighters established friendship to the end of their lives, respecting each others ability to fight in the ring without the bad shows we see in today’s boxing shows. One of the best fighters, RIP Ali & Ziggy.

Nevertheless, the 3rd round was the “preview” of the Great Ali as the undisputed King of the Ring. 😀

I absolutely agree with your scoring. Although Ali looked great, most of his punches missed,and most of Ziggy's landed. However, maybe the strange decision by the judges did the world a great favour by allowing Ali to progress the GOAT boxer and a wonderful and entertaining person.

Milion sędziów by to obejrzało i 999 ,997 przyznało by Tobie i mi rację......tych 3 z Olimpiady to przekupy

[@MrJkfamilyguy59]

Commentator was watching some other fight I guess. Ziggy was awesome. It was close and he got some terrific punches in.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

Was thinking the same thing. Was I watching a different fight? 1st rd. was easily Ziggy's I thought. 2nd was close and could have gone either way but maybe the second half Ali pulled it out. 3rd rd. Ali won easily.

[@doubanjiang]

Ziggy was a bloody mess. Close?

[@waynearrington8411]

No it wasn't

[@waynearrington8411]

That won maybe 30 seconds of the second round out of desperation hey i understand still looking for white hope lol

Kolejny raz obejrzałem tą walkę i uważam, że Pietrzykowski wygrał.

Polak piszemy dużą literą. Jak sam widzisz sprawa jest i podlega dyskusji. Dla znawców boksu, Polak wygrał i jest Superstar. W tym sporcie niestety zdarzały się oszustwa i tak jest do tej pory. Trzymaj się dobrze i ucz się języka polskiego xd

Polish people are like an anvil, can't break em. If you study their history you know why. Many good fighters

[@marekkozlowski4264]

Pietrzykowski wygrał dwie pierwsze rundy i całą walkę. Dlaczego nikt otwarcie o tym nie mówi?

[@adamjustynafalkowscy]

Marek Kozlowski mi to wygląda na łapòwke niestety.

[@BosskiLarry09]

Bał się, że nazwali by go rasistą.

[@taniejaranie]

No właśnie ewidentnie wygrał nawet nie ma mowy o remisie :) każdy się z tym godzi ;) w KSW nawet takie głupoty się nie zdarzaly

[@nokianokianokia1950]

Marek Kozlowski po świat to syf i malaria

[@andrzejlewakowski8984]

Marek Kozlowski ....to fakt,w dwoch pierwszych rundach obaj byli miej wiecej na tym samym poziomie.Pietrzykowski racjonalnie pukal Ali’ego,a Ali spokojnie odpukiwal na podobnym poziomie.Gdyby Pietrzykowski zachowal ten sam poziom do konca,mialby wieksza szanse na mniej ciezkich ciosow Ali’ego,gdyz mialby wieksza rezerwe kondycji do conajmniej blokowania ciosow Ali’ego.Jednak trener Pietrzykows-kiego popchnal go w II-giej przerwie do zwiekszonego ataku i to byl koniec Pietrzykowskiego. W III rundzie na samym poczatku przeforsowal,zaczal naciskac z atakami,a tym samym slabnac,wowczas Ali bedac wyzszym i majac dluzsze rece zadal pare panchow i ogluszyl/obezwladnil Pietrzykowskiego. Polak odslonil sie,zaczal przyjmowac bez kontroli Ali’ego uderzenia,zaczal walczyc chaotycznie i to byl koniec naszego zawodnika.Blad trenera i za malo kondycji Pietrzykowskiego.Taka jest prawda i kazdy ja widzi.Jak komus nie podoba sie to radze samemu sprobowac jakto smakuje. Tu nie ma pomylki,bylo dokladnie jak jest pokazane.Ali mogl byc pobity,ale zla taktyka trenera Pietrzykowskiego byla nie wlasciwa.Powinien lepiej poznac przeciwnika,a Pietrzykowski powinien wiecej oslaniac sie,bez przesadnej ofensywy.

[@MrAntonBerg]

The match was much more even than I first anticipated. Young Ali only wins because off the 3. Round. (Ps. I am an Ali fan)

[@lesleykramer7207]

I see Ali was already dancing and shuffling his feet this early in his career!

[@tomlepski8306]

Muhammad Ali,undisputably the greatest of all time.

[@chliu8454-g3g]

I think Pietrzykowski won the first two rounds. Made Ali missing and counter accurately. Not sure what the announcer was watching. Ali clearly improved later in his career to the highest level, but here he's outboxed and often schooled by the more experienced fighter.

[@smbchc]

they were watching West vs East, good vs bad

[@thegreat1548]

Ali was never schooled by pietrzykowski. 25 years old clumsy & ocward. The 18 year old Ali was styling on everybody at the Olympics beating them decisively.

[@blakkbonez8123]

Muhammad Ali the boxing legend R.I.P

[@Hendriix2]

wtf. clay was 18, Dude imagine being that fucking athletic at 18

[@jgrizzy]

Thats normal...your testosterone and energy is at its peak age 18-21 u should be youth and athletic. Especially a black man. Look at the greats. All were very young
