Muhammad Ali vs George Chuvalo (II) 1972-05-01

1972-05-01 George Chuvalo (II) Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

[@Jabootie-oz1cb]

I met and conversed with Chuvalo in a Beer store line up 20+ years ago, boxing never come close to hurting him. The loss of his children devastated him.

[@tomace194]

And wife

[@erepsekahs]

I also met him and his wife in a clothing store in Canada, completely by accident. He was a charming, quietly spoken man. His hands were about the size of my head. He could have crushed me with just one of them.

[@SD-lo6wv]

I'm so glad I can see these Ali fights. My father, heck everyone told Me he is the greatest. I see it. Fight after fight the left jab, the accuracy, the chin the elusivness the willingness to fight the endurance, crowd pleasure!! Chuvalo is a tough strong fighter a great opponet

Just one (1) word: G.O.A.T Still watching 06/27/2020. Thanks for sharing @MuhammadAli

[@d_exiled_1arisen385]

Chuvalo was sooooo underrated when I was a child. He rarely threw a punch that didn't hit it's target but when you're in the ring with the best elusive and mobile heavy hitters in Ali. Makes it difficult to keep that average. 😆 Magnífico share, gracias.. 🇵🇷✊🏾

Fifty years ago and still burned into my memory. What a great fight by two great champions I had the privilege not only attend the fight but all so the prior week of training and media interview that took place. All at my fathers gym in North Vancouver. I had a front row seat and was privy to many back room antics and conversations between the athletes, coaches, journalists and other cast characters. My greatest memory is at my fathers side,inside his tiny gym office which housed the weigh in scale. Though Ali and Chuvalo trained on separate days they both ended up in this tiny room two days before the fight. With only us four in the room Ali slammed the door closed. Shutting out media and all other’s. He an Chuvalo then started a noisy fake fight. Yelling and banging on the walls and door so all outside could hear. (All with a smile on their faces). Some thought we had witnessed a real battle, with my dad breaking it up. Two of the many fine gentlemen I had the privilege meet so briefly but so memorable Late April 1972.

Wow I'd heard about Chuvalo but had never watched one of this fights. He seems to lure you into a false sense of security because he is pretty easy to hit and doesn't seem that intimidating. But man does this guy surprise you with ultra fast and accurate combinations out of nowhere. You could tell Ali wasn't taking him that seriously at first and then was like damn, where does he get this energy from? Never seen such a chin and stamina. He'd be nearly unbeatable if he had good defense.

Chuvalo is very underrated. Besides being the only heavyweight to never touch the canvas (which is insane…) he had a very high KO % of 87.3, only bested by Tyson, Foreman & Fitzsimmons, and routinely knocked big guys out of the ring. Being Canadian (unknown/uncool/irrelevant on the world stage) and not having the best trainers early on definitely capped his potential. He wasn’t a douchebag trash talker who converted to Islam & changed his name (cringe…) or a larger than life persona, or an ex-military Olympic gold medalist (MURICA!!!), or involved with the mob, embroiled in controversy etc. People want colourful champs, not some poor guy from Toronto. Considering all the damage he’s sustained, it’s incredible how up until about 8 years ago he was still perfectly coherent and didn’t have shaky hands. Absolute legend.

[@henerymag]

Anyone who knows Chuvalo's life story could have nothing but the utmost respect for this man. For all he's gone through he has always tried to help young people in the fight against drugs and despair. A truly remarkable man.

What a great fight. This is actually my first time watching this fight, and I have to say George Chuvalo did much better in this fight than he did in their first one. I had Ali winning 9-3, but Chuvalo was tough and did real good work up close while Ali was on the ropes. Here’s how I scored it: Round 1: 5/4 Ali Round 2: 5/4 Ali (10-8) Round 3: 4/5 Chuvalo (14-13) Round 4: 4/5 Chuvalo (18-18) Round 5: 4/5 Chuvalo (22-23) Round 6: 5/4 Ali (27-27) Round 7: 5/4 Ali (32-31) Round 8: 5/4 Ali (37-35) Round 9: 5/4 Ali (42-39) Round 10: 5/4 Ali (47-43) Round 11: 5/4 Ali (52-47) Round 12: 5/4 Ali (57-51) I thought George Chuvalo took command of the fight in rounds 3-5, but Ali got more and more effective with those combinations and his footwork, which would somehow tire out his opponents more than him. Ali too busy, too fast, too accurate.

Muhammad Ali was truly the greatest ever, in my opinion. I think it was gracious of him to give George a second chance. I also think that George Chuvalo was the greatest heavyweight boxer we, up here in Canada, ever had, and like Ali...he did very important work outside the ring, helping others despite and perhaps because of his own personal losses. 2 great fighters, and great men.

Chuvalo's people specifically requested a 16-17' ring which would allow him to catch the Butterfly. However Ali moved so well he made the ring look as if it were 20-25'. They may have not been aware the smaller ring is what the Butterfly used in training at Deer Lake thus, it was never an advantage for anyone who believed it would.

[@grizzlycanuk8622]

Awesome fight from 2 contrasting styles. Chuvalo the brawler and Ali the boxer. Ali was smart which made him the goat. Ali danced and moved against brawlers like Chuvalo because he knew he would not last if he traded with them. Pleasure to see how fluid Ali was when he floated like a butterfly and stung like a bee. Plus the pure devastating power of Chuvalo. Great fight.

Chuvalo fought a good fight. He was famous for his granite chin. What often goes overlooked is Ali's chin. He took at least 7 shots from Chuvalo that normally would've been KOs against most opponents and shrugged them off. Later in his career, Ali took huge shots from Frazier, Foreman, and Shavers and remained standing.
