  • Who is that clown...Ali is beatin the hell out of????

  • This is the kinda fight where the guy knows he has 2 chances,Slim and None,and slim just left town...

  • funny how, when the opponent is not good enough, we're back in the 60's as far as the film quality is concerned

  • Thank for uploading. The question: How did you get this film? Amazing!

  • Looks like 1950s TV doesn't it? That's third-world TV of the time. Colour TV only came to the UK in 1969. Ali not only fought everyone, but everywhere, I think 13 countries in total (the only continents he missed where S. America, Australia and Antarctica, lol). Nobody, and I mean nobody, did as much for the sport, making it of interest to anyone in the world who could get near a radio. The sport was dying when he emerged; now it's dying again. Most of the fights fans cry out for never happen.

  • @PrettyBeatUp Only because his right hand was hurt. Lubbers is garbage

  • no this was after he won the rematch with norton, and he defeated frazier in their 2nd fight in january of '74. He beat norton on sept 10, 1973. This fight was in Oct 1973.

  • Ali sandwiched this fight in between his close rematch victories over Ken Norton and Joe Frazier. As I recall, he was having problems with his hands, especially his right. Ferdie Pacheco would inject cortisone into Ali's knuckles. He uses his right sparingly in this fight.

  • I think Ali's prob in this fight was hi failure to be the aggressor

  • I remember watching this on Wide World of Sports. Saturday afternoon in October of '73. Ali did a quick intro for the show, saying "don't panic--this is coming to you from Jakarta, Indo-NEEE-sia in black and white. It's not color, so your sets are okay." Anybody have that on tape?
