Muhammad Ali talks about george foreman fight. what a legend

[@architgupta369]

For those kids who don't know.....Foreman is the hardest hitting fighter ever....this just goes on to show ho great Ali was

[@sidosolo1688]

Pretty sure Earnie Shavers was the hardest puncher

[@CurrentlyOffliner]

@@sidosolo1688 I think so as well , George knows how to hit down using body weight he always destroyed smaller opponents but Earnie just hits like truck no matter who. Ali did beat Earnie as well but i wouldn't reccomend watching it Ali took some serious punishment possibly even some brain damage.

Chuck wepner said liston hit harder than foreman and he fought both And he was a walk forward fighter so he would have felt it more than a man moving away Ali was overrated Holmes was better and without all the Ali bullshit and Ali would never beat some of the more recent heavyweights this is the usual sentimental Ali crap

[@borood1188]

Ali trained his mind to be invulnerable to Foreman’s blows. He convinced himself that Foreman could do nothing to hurt him and it worked. The mind is very powerful.

[@kingdjack6]

He has also admitted to be out on his feet at least 3 times and threw just enough punches to keep the ref from stopping the fight.

[@drewski5730]

Except Foreman gave Ali permanent brain damage. The will to win at any cost is greater than the body’s ability to absorb that kind of punishment in this case. I mean looking back, it’s not hard to see how Foreman, one of the hardest punchers to ever live, hit so hard he could give people brain damage. This is how we all know Ali was the greatest. He beat big George while receiving brain damage, and Big George went on to win the heavy weight title again nearly 20 years later, only losing it to the 90’s generation champion Holyfield (who has stated no one hit harder than big George). It’s not hard to infer that a Big George in his Prime would have beaten Holyfield, Lewis, or Tyson, and the same would have been true for Ali.

My father was always derogatory about Ali. He said Ali was not a proper fighter with all that dancing around. He said he thought Ali's fights were fixed. That changed on this momentous night in 1974. My father watched the fight at a mate's house. But when he came back he said, 'What a fight! It was like Ali said to Foreman, If you haven't got a punch, I have!' My father was an Ali fan after that. I was always an Ali fan.

I was lucky enough to watch the "Rumble in the Jungle" and the "Thrilla in Manila" "live" via closed circuit TV at the Spectrum in Philadelphia! Back then there was no cable TV or pay-per-view. You had to buy a ticket and go to someplace carrying the fight. It was actually a great way to see these two classic fights! The Spectrum held 20,000 people and was sold out for both fights! The shouts of "Ali....Ali" from the majority of the crowd after Ali won both fights, including myself, was two of the greatest moments of my life!!!
