I was a sophomore in HS in 1963 and I remember the buildup for this fight and for Clay/Ali. He had burst on to the boxing scene after the 1960 Rome Olympics where he won the gold medal as a light-heavyweight. He worked his way up, his path carefully orchestrated by his career manager, Angelo Dundee. Dundee was to Clay/Ali what Col. Parker was to Elvis. In the buildup to the fight at Madison Square Garden, Johnny Carson, then in his first year hosting the "Tonight Show", then based in NYC, had Clay/Ali on the show. Clay brought the house down! His charisma, good looks, quick wit, his taunting and funny insults of then-champion, Sonny Liston, made for a great show. He and Johnny even fought a fake boxing match with Carson "knocking out Clay". He was already a star! After the fight, which the AP scored 5-4-1 for Jones, and myself, after watching the fight thought that Jones might have won, Carson came on his next show and was very critical of the decision. But the professional boxing gurus knew they had something with Clay, and there was no way he was going to lose before a huge championship fight with Liston. But after seeing this video, I think Clay definitely won a closer than expected fight. To the point, that July, 1963, Clay fought Henry Cooper in the UK. Cooper was known for his left hook, like Frazier later on, but Cooper was taller and leaner. Cooper caught Clay in about the 5th round and put him down into the ropes. Clay got up in time, lasted the round but was still cuckoo a bit at the end of the one-minute rest period between rounds. Dundee took a razor blade, cut Clay's glove, and when the rest period was over, showed the referee the cut glove, which then had to be replaced. That permitted Clay to clear his head with the extra time needed to change gloves. Clay won on TKO 2 rounds later - Cooper was a "cutter". True story! The next February, 1964, Clay fought Liston as 9-1 underdog, and executed probably the biggest "upset" in sports history. He provided a shot in the arm for boxing that was worth billions of dollars for the next 20 years. I loved boxing then. Now, they're a bunch of tomato cans.

Clay was such a smart versitil boxer. Could change fight strategy round to round where his opponents could not. Clay's multi tempo attacks & retreats usually pay off. Didn't matter who his opponent (Big George Forman), Clay managed his fights meticulously.

Double Wow! I grew up loving boxing from the 60s on. I don't remember Doug Jones! What a tough SOB! Clay honed his skills and obviously became The Greatest Of All Time! Then was robbed of his best years by 🤔 our own government. However...I rooted against him and was glad when Smokin Joe kicked his butt. Ali's mouth turned me off in thoes years! Double However...when Ali fought Chuck Wepner in 1975 I became a real Ali fan. Wepner never was on the canvas and was ONE tough SOB! Ali beat him bloody!

I have this fight on DVD Jones won the first round and that was it Ali landed so many combinations in every round easy decision for clay

[@mandolindleyroadshow706]

In the 5 years since I've watched this fight, watching this time I have changed my opinion. My memory was Jones was countering all night and Clay/Ali may have stole the decision (the crowd's boos also tainted my memory). Watching this time, I think Ali was busier than Jones, and rightly won the decision. It's also interesting that Ali weighed in at 202 pounds. His optimum weight was 212. So what would this fight have looked like had it happened around 1965, at the start of his prime, instead of Jan. '63?

[@RadicalCaveman]

Assuming all three judges gave Clay the last round (how could you not?), two of them had the match tied going into that round. If Jones had fought more strategically in the tenth round instead of going for broke, he might well have been awarded a split decision. And yet, tough and capable though Jones proved himself to be, Clay landed far more punches throughout the fight. I don't know what gives with those judges.

@paulg444 Frazier beat Ali because Ali was no longer in his prime.Ali was forced out of boxing for almost 4 years when he was in his prime and he could dance and move and float like a butterfly but when he returned to boxing against Frazier ,Ali could no longer dance and move around the ring and float like a butterfly,his legs were gone.He became a flat footed boxer that was easier to hit by Frazier.Jones did well against Ali because it was a younger Ali ,years before he sat out of boxing for nearly 4 years.This younger version of Ali was not in his prime yet,he was not dancing and moving and floating like a butterfly like he did against the first and rematch fight against Sonny Liston,Ali was so young against Jones that he was just pulling back from Jones and not moving and floating like a butterfly like he did against Liston and was in his prime,nevertheless ,Ali still beat Jones ,Jones threw punches one at a time,meanwhile ,Ali out punched Jones,often hitting Jones 10 times before Jones landed one of his punches.

I have mixed feelings on this issue. I was at ringside for the Jimmy Ellis fight, there thanks to an AP reporter, and saw how easily he slipped punches and, even then, how fast he was. Having said that, I am skeptical. For instance, had both Lewis and he fought, if Lewis had modern training, how that would ended. Similarly, throwing a right lead against Marciano was asking to wake up much later in a different place. I would have loved to have seen him against Jim Jeffries with equal training . . . it might be the Marciano problem all over again. And, of course, there is the question of Jack Johnson--who would have outsmarted who. I don't think Dempsey could have touched him. Tunney, another master strategist . . . that would have been interesting. He did, though. have granite for a chin.

Ali was a bum any of the real boxers from the golden era would have taken ali

[@HaroldHawley]

none of those fighters could have beaten Ali,....other than Archie Moore,Ezzard Charles,Jersey Joe walcott,Sugar Ray Robertson.none knew how to fight,Joe Lewis or Marciano would have been Nothing in Ali's time, any 3rd rate fighter of Ali's time of comparable size would knock them out, boxing has went down hill in the last 20 or so years... size rather then skill seems to be the thing,fat Fury would have lost to a young Ali I don't see the level of skill that was around shortly after Ali took the title. but todays fighters remind me of Two Ton Tony Galento ,or Max Baer,...no talent

Ali was in his prime. Few ever handled him this way. Full color slow motion replays be great. Ali got the shit knocked out of him many times!

Greatest robbery of 1963

[@RollingStoneZzzzz]

Ali won...no doubt. Remember this was earlier in his career. The judges were not bious. Unless $$$$ a little grease was applied. I doubt it though. Das 😎 all.

@Cliff589 contra factum non valet argumentum. No argument has any strength when it is contradicted by a fact. Ali was a GREAT boxer that is a FACT! Your opinion is therefore crap!
