  • @TheGreatestVids thanks so much for posting this film -- i love it -- the real drama in this documentary is more powerful than all fictional boxing movies combined

  • anyone here know who this wicked jazz band is in the intro?

  • Comment removed

  • ali had the heart, courage and determination.... but there has never been as fine an athletic specimen in boxing (or many other sports - think maybe Jordan, Usain Bolt) as a prime-young George Foreman

  • @maurice2002 Mike Tyson

  • RIP Joe Frazier

  • Don King needs to die off, seriously.

  • @mordanai He needs to be beaten to death. Biggest piece of shit, slimy, scum bag there ever was.

  • Frazier was an Uncle Tom though...and that is inexcusable.

  • @matako07 Are you serious? Frazier was not an 'uncle tom', stop listing to Ali, do you seriously believe all the shit that spewed out of his mouth? Frazier was a fuckin champion.

  • @9:18 I now see where Muhammad Ali gets his good looks:)

  • the most charismatic person in 20th century

  • We are still Kings. and will remain Kings to reign and rule with Christ forever. This title is put here by the cursed whiteman Imperialists. We do not accept it. We are kings. Check out my channel to maximise your Royal influence over the white imperialist rats.

  • Of course Ali was scared, but Ali was smart enough to use fear as a weapon.

  • The only goat in sports that matters.

  • gorege forman was doggin

  • such an intelligent charismatic fighter. 1 in a billion

  • 11 people who stole bicycles got scared and clicked the dislike button.

  • I heart boxing

  • Lol. don't you know he was actually trying to seperate the colours? 'Redbirds with Redbirds, Bluebirds with Bluebirds'.. all he was trying to do was let his people have some power and self sufficience.. the only way in which he joined the people was in support of him.

  • ali vs foreman. a fight that took a career to be able to appreciate. it took a decade for this fight to make sense and be significant. it took all those years of ups and downs for it to create an atmosphere of expectations in boxing that exists to this day

  • you think the world was surprised when nixon resigned?

  • "...I call him The Mummy"!!!!!

    LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Can anybody help me with the 1st song 0:12?

    It's not on the sountrack!!!

    Thanks

  • Ali lost first fight to Fraiser when he got out of jail then he won 2nd and killed Fraiser in the rubber match

  • I like Ali, but in my opinion, no one could beat Smokin' Joe Frazier and his famous left hook. One thing I can't understand is that Frazier could beat Ali, but couldn't beat Foreman, while Ali couldn't beat Frazier, but COULD beat Foreman. :S

  • @Tmontana44 rock, paper, scissors

  • @Tmontana44 It's all about different styles. That's what some idiots don't get. They're always sayin 'so and so in their prime was the best yadda yadda yadda'. There is no best. There never is and never will be a best because it's all about different styles.

  • @saulhudson420 The greatest off all time! Muhammad Ali!

  • @Thesenseoftouchc If there even was such thing as a 'greatest', it would have been Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson would have destroyed anyone in his prime.

  • @saulhudson420 an opinion from a guy like you from the modern internet ages won't blow air near that fact. And that's why, before making random meaningless claims such as the one you did, you should know all the facts first. LAST but not least, Tyson lost against all his real difficult opponents, Lennox Lewis to be the last. Whilst Ali's opponents, were the greatest boxers, Floyd Patterson, Ken Norton, GEORGE FOREMAN, JOE FRAZIER, SONNY LISTON, EARNIE TAYLOR. and the list goes

  • @Thesenseoftouchc You're serious? Mike was far past his prime when he fought Lewis. He wasn't even half the fighter he was when he got out of prison. Tyson had a hunger that no other boxer did. And way to use the 'guy from modern internet ages' card on me. What difference does that make? What, because I wasn't around the time Ali was fighting, I don't know anything about him? Right, I know how to use a computer and get useful information, as oppose to you, so.. your point?

  • @saulhudson420 I keep hearing this exuce over and over that Tyson was in prison. Muhammad Ali had the real heart of a champion once he got out of jail he won the heavyweight title again.

    Fact: One of tyson's role models in terms of styles is Joe frazier.

    George foreman knocked frazier 6 times.

    Muhammad Ali almost killed frazier in round 14 in their last fight when he knocked the mouth guard off to the sixth row of the audience, and continued beating him without the guard.

  • @Thesenseoftouchc Ok? And that's relevant how? And Frazier was legally blind in his left eye, and even when his other eye was so puffed up from getting hit and he could barely see, he Ali still BARELY won. Not to mention how much of a dick Ali was to Frazier even when Ali was broke and vilified, FRAZIER is the one who helped him out. Why don't you do your research man. I respect Ali. But greatest? There is no such thing. And even tho I respect him, he was a dick.

  • @saulhudson420 Is that your answer that his eye was blinded? Cmon man just get off here please. So tyson wasn't a dick? Have you ever seen his interviews and weights in brawls? Gimme facts not your opinion

  • @Thesenseoftouchc You're saying that's my 'opinion'? No. Frazier wa slegally blind in his left eye. It's a fact. Look it up. And I never said Tyson wasn't a dick.

  • @saulhudson420 Well tell me the reason he was blinded? Cause he got punched by the Greatest of all time :)

  • @Thesenseoftouchc No, he's right eye was puffy from getting hit, his left eye is legally blind to begin with. Meaning he could barely see, and he still kept fighting. Takes a true champ to take a beating like he did.

  • @saulhudson420 Yes but the fact is Ali beats Tyson. Tyson was finisher if an opponent took him to the 5th round + he had no power or speed left. Tyson says Prime ali would beat him, Mayweather says the same and alot of other boxer. Ali fought 14 rounds, Tyson couldn't go 8 rounds without being dead tired. Ofc Tyson is a great boxer one of the best, but we have to face the fact. If George foreman couldn't knock ali out with his best shot while ali being on the rope then tyson cant.

  • "I'm gonna retire the heavyweight champion of the world". It's a shame he didn't.

  • So many athletes have tried to copy Ali's act: talking trash, acting invincible, pretending to be cool and arrogant. The difference between Ali and people like Terrell Owens, Chad Ochocinco, and every other athlete that talks a lot...is that Ali actually BACKED UP what he talked about.

  • @kitsa42

    Ali got his trash talking act from Classy Freddie Blassie.

  • "Yea im in Africa, yea Africa's my home damn America, and what America thinks, yea i live in america but Africa's the home of the black man..." one of my favorite quotes from Ali

  • just watch "thrilla in manilla" (british documentary) and you'll see who is the true Cassius Clay. God bless frazier and go to h*** Ali, poor man.

  • @morganthecelt Harsh dude, dont talk about the greatest of all time like that man .

  • @morganthecelt Ignorant

  • @CiaranRooney125 ignorant

  • 1:52 LMFAO:-D THROWING his rifle at the guy.....How smart is that?Not only no more ammo,now he`s got no rifle either!ROFL. REALLY smart move.

  • ali wrote the book on being a kind rough and tough man i salute him

  • WAY better than the Will Smith movie! What was that??

  • Such a great film. Many thanks for posting........

  • what a Legend !

    looooool@1.54

  • man all these cunts as cracks would reek.ali has nothing on tyson

  • I done wrestled with an alligator, done tussled with a whale

    I hancuffed lighting… thrown thunder in jail

    yesterday I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalized a brick

    I’m so mean…I make medicine sick.

  • What ae the name of the songs by The Jazz Crusaders and Miriam Makeba in this documentary??????

  • He wrastled with an Aligator, tussled with a whale, hand cuffed lightning, threw thunder in jail, murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalized a brick and made medicine sick!

  • I love me some Ali.

    But what did to Joe Frazier was just wrong. I lost some respect for Ali when I learned how Fraziers son was taunted because kids were beating him up everyday because they believed Ali when he said Frazier was an Uncle Tom.

  • @StuUngar what the fuck matter with you you hypocrite, they were fighter, not lovers, and beside how the fuck ali would know in 10 year later, fraziers would have children who would go to school one day and thier classmate would call them gorrilla

  • @cozmic24 Frazier had a son named Marvis that was alive during all 3 of their fights. Get an idea of what you're talking about before you open your mouth dumb shit.

  • @StuUngar bitch watch ur shitty mouth, well ali did not sit down and study if frazier life if he has kids , or if they go to school, or if children bully his children, and why the fuck u think thier fights is the greatest triology boxing matches , it because thier rivarlary and ali showmanship

  • @cozmic24 All your doing is embarrassing yourself. First you tried to say Marvis Frazier was born "10 years later," then when called out, you back out of what you said and make some other lame excuse. You have no clue what you're talking about, so please go learn your history & learn to speak English while you're at it.

    Go watch this... watch?v=LyeD2slndbM&feature=re­lated ...listen to what happened, read the comments, and come back when you find 10 black males who agree with what Ali had done.

  • ALI is my HERO!!!

  • I don't care what people say, those ropes were loosened. And I'm a huge Ali fan.

  • Is Ali the greatest? too fuckin right he is........

  • It's amazing how fearsome Foreman was back then,

    and now,

    he's this big ol' teddy bear.

  • @themightycelestial

    Yes -- isn't that just one of the most incredible sub-plots in the Ali story?

  • Reporter: "I saw Sonny Liston a few days ago...."

    Ali : "Ain't he ugly?"

  • you know what for all the love he gets now, when he can't move, and when he was at his best the amount of abuse he got. Uncoool. This man is an inspiration. He did and does have a lot of fantatical fans, my favourite sportman/ celebrity/ philanthropist/ comedian/ boxer/ hero of all times

  • BANIGEH BANIGEH BANIGEH :D

  • Haha, anyone know a longer version of the first song that comes up with the African woman??!

  • Best Documentary ever!

  • @ttooulos

    Shut up he has parking sons disease and don't talk shit about Clay he was the best and he will all ways will be.

  • @Mrbigleswirth Parking Sons? Think you need to work on your spelling. There are two sides to any story and Ali was as much an asshole as hero.

  • @ttooulos And Ali beat´d Foreman, who beat´d Norton and Frazier.

  • What a truly wonderful man, who's life has added joy and dignity to mankind.

  • bread and circus for the masses ^_o

  • u see 6:40 to 6:48 this is the same shit they say about floyd oooooo he scare of pac and blah blah blah blah but foreman was knocked the fuck out

  • @kiiyo1 plss don't even bring up floyd here!! floyd is the real meaning of a coward coz he's running, ducking and quacking at the same time and he got to much alibi's..don't even compare him to THE GREATEST MUHAMMAD ALI... ALI is the real meaning of a warrior coz HE man up to face FOREMAN and backed up what he says!! not like barbie floyd all talk no walk....

  • damn floyd mayweather copied the best marketing sceme ever cuz the world hates a talented loud black man but now every body acting as if they lovvvvvve mr clay or ali. one day we will look back and yall will finally reconize

  • Ali on Cossell:

    "I'm gonna let everybody know that thing on your head is a phony,

    And it comes from the tail of a pony"

    looooooooooool

  • Just think. This all started with a stolen bike lol. I think that was God's way of sending Ali a message.

  • @swaguymusicpage a message to what, to parkinsons sindrome, or over ego. mm i dont think so. dont fight me now i do beleive ally to be great as fa as boxing is concern skill speed and technique no rival, so i respect him as a boxer, adn feel so sad bouthis condition. but as a man i cant judge him cause im not perfect, but he had too much ego, he could be alittle cruel with his mouth, amoong other things but i guess all of it is wat made him such a recognisable figure including his boxing skills

  • he sounds like cuba gooding jr when he was young

  • 1:55 only in Africa would you see someone use a Rifle as throwing weapon. Ha

  • Supreme confidence will take you anywhere

  • @SimonLy90 yeah so high that when you fall down you'll be a wreak

  • one of the best movies ive ever saw

  • Check out the Black Devil @ 1:30 next to Muhammad Ali.

  • thumbs up for boners!

  • Being white I still saw the humanity in Ali. Pro Black anti gov't I still saw in him a man who was fair. Look at the footage when he jumoed to Dundees defense when King told Dundee to "shut up"

  • im so mean i make medecine sick. DAM

  • -i saw sonny liston a few nights ag....

    -aint he ugly?

    priceless

  • lool at 1:53

  • This is the best documentary I've ever seen.

  • agree

  • Everyone spoke quite epically in the 70's. Nowadays it's all "Lol, TOTALLY RAAANDOM!" I weep for my generation. :(

  • @Recovermin haha bit OTT, but i see exacly wot you mean , like at 8:50 that interviewer just proper epic :p

  • i loveeee muhammad

  • haha look at don king

  • TYSON TYSON TYSON!

  • ali was so sure about winning Foreman.

    so sure and full of life. Thats the secret

  • Jesse Owens, Lance Armstrong, Don Bradman, Eddie Moses etc etc were all great...But there's only one Muhammad Ali. Greatest sportsman of all time, easily.

  • muhammed ali had a real big impact on everyone he bought nations and coulors together and to people who he wasnt fighting he made them belive they can do anything muhammed ali was an important figure in the world and still is. i think he has done as much and as important as martin luther king jr , malcolm x , nelson mandela and gandhi its just people dont realise it

  • @TheGREATEST95 man FUCK malcom X. how can you even say his name in the same sentence as Martin Luther King. He was more intent on tearing people apart than bringing people together. He was a racist just like Ali. Ali was still a great fighter though.

  • Actually, no he wasn't..that's what lead to him assassination. He came back from the Middle East and saw Muslims of ALL colours and started speaking out about the fact that white people weren't the devils people were being indoctrinated to think. Facts maybe help.

  • his assassination*

  • @mightyafrowhitey stfu. Malcolm X is just as important to African American history as MLK. You know nothing about the movement and you know nothing about the struggle. To this day I still believe that Malcolm X had a better strategy to gaining true freedom in America that MLK....So fuck you Fox News mentality ho.

  • @jetdatboy haha, fox news?  really man, where in the fuck did that come from. I despisr pretty much everything that radical right wing propoganda network stands for.

  • @mightyafrowhitey Then gtfo here with that "Malcolm X wasn't MLK" shit...

  • @jetdatboy uh huh :)

  • @jetdatboy True dat and thats why he was killed first. Dr king was killed because he would have been the first black president by either the late 70;s or early 90's.

  • @TheGREATEST95 .......No truer words have ever been posted on Youtube.

  • @TheGREATEST95 Agreed he wouldn't have a medal of freedom if not i mean 3 years out his prime to stand up for his rights thats something you gotta respect

  • @TheGREATEST95 he has given food to 22 million ppl

  • @TheGREATEST95 You could add Jackie Robinson to that list as well. Actually, I think everyone realizes that Ali is special and belongs right there with all of those leaders.

  • @TheGREATEST95 Nah. He primarily won fights. I didn't see him change legislation. I think the names missing from your list are William Wilburforce and Thomas Clarkson. Difference between those guys and your chosen popularist list, is that they weren't nationalists. They didn't abolish slavery for "their 'own' people", they did it for, people. So of course, their names slowly but surely drift out of the public conscience

  • ali wasnt the greatest of all time when he beat liston or foreman or terrel or spinks ali was the greatest of all time since he first said im the greatest of all time see it really helps to say what you want to be he said he was the greatest somany times we bellieved him

  • and thats how dumb u r

  • u talk sum shit.

  • im quite sure witchcraft helped him win that mach

  • Ali was scared of Foreman, and rightly so after what George did to Frazier. You could tell when Ali was nervous about a fight because he talked more than normal.

  • Ali has always talked more than usual. He chased after Liston's car one time with a stck threatening to beat Liston with the stick like if he was Liston's Daddy! And this was his very first championship fight. Liston was just as fierce as Foreman. The trick Ali had developed was ming control. He pschyed boxers out and drove them into either a rage or bemusement even b4 the fight had commenced.

  • Infact when he chased after Liston'scar with his stick, pundits back then thought he was scared of Liston. They thought he was loosing his mind. Prior to the fight he kept doing odd things like gatecraching into Liston's training grounds to harrass Liston. But all the antics helped drive Sonny Liston raging mad. And the worse thing a maestro need not have is rage or anger...I suppose such things throws your focus off. It was after that Liston fight Ali proclaimed himself "I am the greatest!"

  • Spot on. Don't forget he made Liston think he was really crazy. Literally insane. Once they got in the ring and Ali could hit Liston anytime he wanted and displayed no fear, Liston lost all hope, and quit on his stool.  Amazing.

    Funny how no one took Ali seriously until then, because up to that point he still displayed boxing skill unseen in the heavyweight division until his emergence.

  • @frankdrebin...Indeed. Imagine if he had not been stripped of his title and his livelihood by the boxing commission! Imagine the record he could have amassed. I mean he was in his prime when he was denied to fight for three and a half years. Many fighters would have given up boxing. Imagine the thrillers the world would have witnessed to if he had been allowed to box!

  • @frankdrebin...He is really the greatest fighter of all time because his impact was felt in countries all over the world. I mean he was taking fights to different countries of the worldpromoting the sport like never before. He was truly what you would call the "people's champion!"

  • After the Foreman fight Ali added "Of all times!" to the sentence.

    So I think that is why Muhammad Ali is considered the greatest fighter ever. Even the greatest athlete...because he had both the physical prowess and the mental bravado or wit to psych his adversaries out.

  • Brother Muhammad Ali proved there is'nt a thing called invisibility in the ring.

    Just as he did against Sonny, Ali humilated Foreman and he took all his big purnches.

    Muhammad Ali is a courageous man with such skill and energy and he was defintely the greatest athlete on earth.

  • Haha that bloke was throwing his gun at the fleeing man, incredible, knocking out all bums.

  • Scared of what? Nothing to be scared of. Sounds like Tony Montana.

  • vi recentemente o dvd ali com will smith, gostaria de adquirir esse documentário.

  • the mummy lol

  • jesus was from the middleeast

  • our day will come again we shall rule again and when we do it will be forever .... it will be peace all around the world

  • this video streams so slowly.....

  • Ali is a better rapper than 70% of the rappers we have today.

    can i get a witness?

  • absolutely! and Ali actually did what he preached.

  • @charms71  AMEN BROTHER!!!!!!!!!

  • @charms71

    i agree with you100%!

  • @charms71

    HELL NO!

  • @charms71 AMEN

  • @charms71 yes. and he made all rhymes up on the go.

  • You know Jamaicans have that ready to fight when called african attitude except Rastafarians. I dont understand why they get offended. True story, I was working with a Jamaican guy. One day we were talking about Africa since I am from Africa myself. I said that your ancestors were from Africa. He was so mad that he almost exploded. His answer made me laugh and scratch my head. He said his ancestors were native to the land of Jamaica...loooool.

  • well many many jamaicans have arawak blood in them which is the native american peopels who originlly were on that island before the europeans took ppl of african desecent there , so he could have a point there , and ppls ethnicities change , by historical and biological defintions all humans are originally from africa ,

  • @hotchoccolate23 THATS A LIE JAMAICANS ARE TOO BLACK TO BE MIXED

  • doesnt mean a ting , u can be balcker than midnight and posses european ancestry? whats your point , its genealogically proven many of them have native american ancestry , many jamaicans also have smaller eye folds which is also a trait of the N.A. ancestry . And why would i lie?

  • @hotchoccolate23 because its a well known fact that jamaicans hate their african ancestery. if jamaicans had any knowledge of genetic they would know that if they are part indian, part asian part european that means you are only 25% african...which means that 75% of u is light straight hair etc. which means you would have light skin...straight or wavy hair and lighter eyes. but if you ink black...your hair looks like a damn brillow pad, giant lips...you are a 100% black. be proud of who u are

  • i agree you should be proud of all that you are , wuteva lineage u have , and you cant be 25% this or that , i have so many differnet ancestrial lines , i am equally all those ethinicities not one greater than the other , only thing is some cultural ties with sides of my family are stornger , many variables to deal with my friend

  • @hotchoccolate23 ethiopians, sudanese etc have slanted eyes bro just like asians since africa is the cradle of civilization.

  • yeh but hthat doesnt mean that they cant have arawak blood !

    n i dont disagree , africa is motherland of humanity

  • @hotchoccolate23 but thats not how genetics work...arawak havent been in the caribean for hundreds of years, most were exterminated to make room for te african slaves. so yes there probably are a few who do but thats hundreds of years back. ps. blacks are the only race on earth that keep mentioning other races like that makes them important. in india there are people with ink black skin it is scientifically proven that many have black blood but they STILL DENY IT. claim africa

  • i claim it trust me , but i dont over look one over the other. i get what you mean though . africas sooo rich in every way , sad its being fucked over by rich nations n its own bought corrupt sell outs

  • This guy looked like he just came from Zaire and he cant comprehend that fact. I guess he skipped all his history class.
