Muhammad Ali vs Mac Foster 1972-04-01

1972-04-01 Mac Foster Nihon Budokan, Tokyo, Japan

[@billpoulos1904]

I Was A 21 Year Old Marine At The Time. I Was In Japan For Training In Gotemba. Several Of Us In Our Battery (Artillery) Went To The Famous Budokan In Tokyo To Watch The Fight In Person. It Was One Of Several Ali Fights I Attended In Person, Stretching Back To The 60’s 70’s & 1980. I Saw Ali Fight Live In The Three Different Decades Of His Career. I Am An Old Man Now When Ali Died Watching The News Of His Passing. With My Wife And Children, I Didn’t Say Anything, I Went Upstairs To My Room And Cried. This Man Inspired Me So Much In My Work And Life. The Original G.O.A.T. The Man Who Actually Coined The Phrase, “Greatest Of All Time” Now Everyone In All Sports Wants To Lay Claim To The Title G.O.A.T. I Miss This Man, The Self-Proclaimed G.O.A.T. Luv Ya, Champ! R.I.P.

Ali is without a shadow of a doubt not only the greatest sports person ever, but a God gifted human who was a pioneer as a humanitarian . He engineered and adapted to all styles of his opponents in the ring and yet, outside he bought love, harmony, and peace throughout the world. The best human born in this century . With a heart bigger than this world. RIP, May Allah keep you in the very best of places

[@kufujitsu]

Ali was arguably the toughest & gutsiest heavyweight who ever lived.....He fought Liston, Frazier, & Foreman, when they were in their primes. He didn't wait for them to age or get knocked out by somebody else before he fought them, or punk out the fight, or insist on ridiculous terms & conditions for the fight to take place. And of course he struggled on occasion - that's what happens when you fight the best available competition, when they're at their best, instead of looking for the easiest possible opponents the way they do today. Whenever somebody made a name for himself, Ali gave him a chance for a fight & ducked no one - I mean no one. How many guys can we say that about today? A few, but not many. Greatness is all about the journey, not the ending. Other fighters probably had better defense, or punched harder, but nobody competed harder than this guy. R.I.P. Champ.

[@nakedhombre]

Uncle Tony / Nice try but you obviously have not seen many of Ali’s flights. He went to the stomach area many times in order to get a fighter to drop his hands and then get him with the right cross or left hook! But when you capitalize the word, “EVER” that Ali never went to his opponents body “EVER” then you are completely in error. Hey sell that snake oil to your grandkids but don’t try to push that on these websites where people watch these boxing videos and know the career and history of Muhammad Ali.

[@uncletony6210]

M.H. Nude, there are dozens and dozens of Ali fights here on the youtube, with hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of rounds and thousands and thousands of punches. Please link a vid (and include time and round) where Ali throws a body shot.

This was the period in his career where he said he didn't want to knock guys out. It was because he just came back from exile and the Supreme Court rendered an unamious decision in overturning his conviction for refusal into the Military on the grounds that Ali was a "Muslim Minister". Later, after the Buster Mathis fight when he was criticized for NOT knocking Buster out when Mathis was ready to go, Ali said he didn't want to KO people just please the crowd, but that he would Knock guys out from then on because of the criticism.

I think he only wanted to get joe Frazier back into the ring and win back the title. These fights were only to stay active.

Ali refuted by saying I dont understand the problem, I win all my fights with very little damage in the shape im in... if I was IN shape it would be a murder wouldn"t it? I never forgot that interview hahaha. All this to say, Ali picked and chose who to knock out for the most part, when it was a formidable opponent like Norton, Frazier, Foreman you can see he threw his punches with bad intentions.

I remember saw this match in direct tv in italy transmitted. Now i understand very very well, and i can say that Alì was not a boxer, as here it's demonstrated. Sorry, but you as here many people doesn't understand nothing. Alì was only a dancer in a ballet ruscka! He won about his jab more long (for him the direct ko was a dream... never won for direct ko, but at last of any match for weariness of his opponent, about many jab punches got.). The box of Alì is out standard and incorrect in any second of the match. He use sent a punch, and after take his opponent by the head pushing down, so to avoid any reaction. In any match Alì used so doing almost 100 times.. Obvious, do it because he was always more high). Obvious, instead in this match he used do as did Foreman, having here to fight a weak and more little opponent. In a virtual mach with Butterbeen, after 10 seconds Alì would been dreaming by ko. Here the opponent of Alì didn't let to operate with the jab, about the distance not fit for this play. OK.. i teacher you... it seems that you even don't see. Anytime Alì use is left hand to adjust his opponent at right distance for better have the target... this is uncorrect. The only resource of Alì was his resistence to got the punches, and it was his tactis to do get tired his opponent (it seems you never saw a match of Alì... He used put himself to the corner ring, saying to the component to punch him. The are the images of the match Liston-Moore? he used tell out by ring that his tactics would been not to punch the opponent, by protect himself letting to the opponent to punch him... he even simulated it, doing a skit for propaganda, saying he would win on Liston in the next match with him... as it effectively happen). Differently by the other boxer Alì used his intelligence in tactics, more than the punches... but i thing just for this his tactics to receive punches and have so hard courage, at last it caused his deadly ill. However Alì represented the gold era of the Box...Honour to him, about all great heroic athlete, more than boxer, think !

Sometimes inexperienced or awkward fighters make you look bad I’ll give Ali this he stayed active and let virtually unknowns have a chance of the big prize.

Ali had a great jab in this fight.

[@bizim_eller]

Final bell of the fight and the greatest is still on his toes and doing his thing,floating like a butterfly 🙂 my god he was a strong man!!

[@davebryant8050]

That's why his brain was mush. He couldn't punch hard enough to end the fight and too enomrous punishment and only won a lot of fights was because he brought the money in. At least 5 guys took a dive for him over the years and others lost because their lives were threatened by his handlers.

[@bizim_eller]

@@davebryant8050 wow genius, thanks for the enlightenment.

[@aarondigby9859]

@@davebryant8050 you been smoking too much crack, I wonder who took a dive for him? Maybe Ellis, Coopman. The fighter taking a dive has a good chance of winning or upsetting the champion or contender. Name someone, please?

[@1badhaircut]

Watch Ali between rounds - before the exile he didn’t even breath hard - or get hit - he’s heavier and slower - STILL the best but not a lap ahead of everyone - damn government 🤬

[@sjb610]

Ali never trained as hard as he did when he was younger. He said himself how he hated to train.

The government didn't make him fat.

[@1badhaircut]

@@deanmays7133 actually they did because training at that level is 8-10 weeks of gladiator torture- you saw the Rocky movies - nobody can do it unless for a purpose and purse. Also if not competing at the highest level athletes lose their precision. After coming back he could be hit - which ultimately caused his medical problems - that killed him. He was ruined by the government - it can be seen as racism too. RIP GOAT

[@mikesmouse7779]

Ali dancing on his feet all the way to the 15th. Compare that to a modern heavyweight like Tyson Fury who ends up punching a shot or two then immediately grabbing hold and leaning on opponents just a few rounds in. Ali was a different class, a gifted athlete.

[@paulwebsterekdahl1909]

Certainly not the walkover people expected...

[@forestgeorge8855]

I scored this today at 9 Ali - 2 Foster - 4 Even. I was a little drowsy watching this, I watched the first five rounds last night and had it 3-1-1 for Ali. There was no doubt here, as Ali might have coasted a little - but he scored at will and the decision was never in doubt. (73-66 Ali).
