What is it about today's culture that music has got to be everywhere and without any sense of dialing down even? Here we have 2 interviews with Frazier followed by Dundee & there's got to be pop music dialed all the way up so one can't even focus on the what these people are saying. I've seen this in so many other videos too. Mustic has its place; say showing Ali walking in his garden at sunset and hearing a soft melody in the background, or to a montage of Ali photos.
this video makes me want to throw up, too sad. Larry Holmes doesn't belong in the ring with Ali. And talk about "FAT" Holmes weighs about 500 pounds today.This hurt Ali's legacy. Angelo Dundee should have stopped the fight earlier. Mayo clinic said Ali had brain damage, boxing commission needs to change rules to protect fighters.
3.54 .. true , he wasn't a bad man or wanting to hurt ali but what a great fighter comes from he needs to get beat by a great , simply the greatest of all time ali was though :)
His the greatest routine at this point does not look good, and I wish he would have kept looking like a genius and drove down the road without the boxing ring.
Ali, in later years was already suffering from Parkinson’s disease, and was on medication, which they overdosed him with before the fight in an effort to help the condition. Most fighters don’t end up suffering from Parkinson disease, as I think it was a predisposition, although the punches very well had an effect.
@DrJReefer I'm almost positive that is why Spinks was chosen. On the Holmes issue though I am surprised Ali even got to the 10th round what with all the metobolic changes, medication and general wear he had taken by this point. If was Tyson dishing out the pain Ali sadly would have been ko'd for sure.
@dempsey981 There was something about the way he battered Spinks at the end that made me think he was letting Leon know he could have won the fight whenever he wanted.
@DrJReefer YOU COULD BE RIGHT,BUT REMEMBER.ONE of alis big tricks was to close out real strong hoping to last minute sway judges.alis last 2 rounds were often quite strong.i dunno tho maybe he hoodwinked us like you suspect?he was after all a tricky tricky guy
@DrJReefer You would have to be a brain dead moron to think taking hard shots from Leon Spinks just to win a belt is a good idea. Maybe Floyd Patterson got knocked down by Johannsen 7 times just to win it again eh?
@jmlbloom No. He said he would do it all over again if he could, he said this in a 2002 interview I believe. Ali should have retired after the Shavers fight at the most.
they say a wise man change and a fool will stay the same fuck it BLAME IT ON THE GAME ALI ONLY KNEW HOW 2 DO ONE THING SHAKE UP THE WORLD

Why do so many documentaries leave out the fact that Ali had ANOTHER fight in 1981, against Trevor Berbick?

But he should have left the ring, it got crazy.
I loved Ali and it should not have happened.
