Even though in reality Ali liston 2 was fought in lewistion, Maine i wonder if michael mann made this scene there to coincide with the boxing career of Ali.
@AtomicGT55 I would've too!! Knowing I was going to get my ass whipped all over again. RIP, Liston did need the money. Still, the greatest would whip his ass any day. 2x on sunday.
Not to distract from this beautiful scene, but wouldn't it have been better if they used the Sam Cooke version of the song? It's so much more emotional.
@nikz200 what happened was malcolm was part of a group known as the nation of islam, headed by elijah muhammad which believed in black seperatism and black supremacy. Malcolm was their top spokesman for 12 years and elijah muhammads personal assistant, until he split with them after realizing elijah had impregnated 19 teenagers. Then after he left he took a religous pilgramige to mecca and saw white and black people getting along and so changed his views. But because of this they killed him
@jamaicanification no they killed him cuz he waz making money and he personily did not want to be around them to give some back as you wash may back and i wash yours the point is that it waz satnic cuz thier would be no money for sex
@cpdusmcdst9 u son of a bitch, hiding behind a keyboard and saying shit like that, MALCOLM X is greater then ur whole generation, they are like shit compared to him, ur family is like the dirt in my toe nails compared to him ASSHOLE.
shes dressing too nice. hes muslim and thinks women should dress conservatively. if you look around 4:42, all the people there are muslim, and the few women are in suits, but shes dressed like diana ross. she converted to islam to make him happy, but she doesnt want to stop dressing nice
i completely agree with you, i bet malcom felt betrayed by ali cause he was trying to wake him up by telling him you don't have to swear by elijah u only need allah and thats enough, elijah was like almost a bully, like forming the nation of islam n making the women dress like nuns, and expelling people from the religion thats not islam, he just was hungry for power
oh another thing I almost forgot who was one of the only people to foresee what would happen to Ali if he kept it up with boxing before anyone else telling him that he should stop boxing in the next few years and had that prophecy come true as well.... hmm let me think... well I don't know oh yeah Hon. Elijah Muhammad too
You didn't say that, but I'm telling you. Christians that go out and kill others because they say "God" made them or "Jesus" made them we all know are not really Christians, right? Well, it's the same deal here. Just a bunch of radicals who take a religion (Islam) into their own hands and make it into what they want it to be (aka Terrorists, Nation of Islam, etc.). Make sense?
Yea makes plenty of sense... However, Japanese military bombed Pearl Harbor. Not all Japanese are evil or bad but what did we do to them? We dropped the most horrific thing imaginable on INNOCENT people... what was it 200,000 innocent people instantly dead? One man was responsible for 9/11 and we can't even get a clue where he is in 8 years... I'm just saying sometimes to get rid of a few bugs you have to pesticide the whole house.... Its a cold thing to say but that doesn't mean it ain't right.
zakarias1886 your a mother fucker ali was the best you dont no jack shit mother fucker fuck you ali was the best your the worst how dare you swaer at ali.i love ali.your a stupid fucker go fucking fuck of bitch
The Nation of Islam started like any organized faith..organized people looking for independents and love from each other... but like all organized faith..money always comes into play... and the money becomes the organized faith more than the simple idea of the faith... malcolm like christ was not swayed by money... or persuaded by the munipulation of a woman with an alterior motive...
Give the truth to blacks but whites don't want to except it they want us to remain ignorant, much love to Malcolm but more love to the nation of Islam because with out the nation Malcolm would have been nothing.
The reason Malcolm was killed was because he saw through the Nation of Islam. He was a free thinker, not a drone which is what the Nation of Islam wanted. Malcolm went looking for the truth and found it, and he would've taught that to his people with or without the help of the N.O.I.
One thing is for sure, without the Nation of Islam, Malcolm might still be alive.
I love Malcolm even more than King. Although I like King too. Malcolm taught blacks to be independent. We needed that considering we had a slave mentality at that time. And it's funny now how some whites dislike blacks on goverment assistance but hate Malcolm X who was all for blacks being strong independent people. Makes you think.
We still have a slave mentality and they use that hip hop bullshit to control our black youth. Young black males aspire to be thugs and young black women call themselves bitches its truley sad. Blacks have just found a new way to keep themselves down we have to stop the cycle and do better for ourselves
they censored word nigger he should of said like history told it "hey nigger get your'e hand out of my pocket" man are we that sensity we cant even quote stuff from history *sigh*
Yeah there was a rematch in 1965 when Ali knocked him down early with "the phantom punch" this fight seemed fix because of the way Liston moved on the ground and possible threats from Muslim extremist have been speculated
It has also been speculated that Liston himself may have fixed the fight and he faught it just because he needed money. ...it's hard to ever know the truth with this kind of things.
It is sad to see that so many people have to suffer just for basic human rights.
I am also happy to think that many people, including Muhammad Ali, have been able to witness the paradigm shift seen in the 2008 US election. It was a huge thrill for me, I can only imagine how much greater for so many who have suffered first hand. Little by little, but perhaps there is hope yet for the human race.
Go Humans - keep waking up!

He was a minister for the Nation of Islam, he later left/got suspended and became a real Muslim.
He then criticised the leader of the NOI, and then later was assasinated. Some say both the NOI and FBI/CIA had something to do with it.
The way Ali spoke is nothing compared to Malcolm X
