Inoki was banned from using a lot of his wrestling arsenal and some kicks in this match which might explain why he's on the ground.

Yeah, they kind of rigged the fight, where w guy who's primary arsenal was wrestling moves, couldn't use wrestling moves, against a pro boxer. This would have probably gone differently if they also, decided Ali wasn't allowed to punch.

[BILSON220]

Yes! I was hoping I wasn't the only one who recognized "In the Flesh"

[Terrence Brown]

And I don't know why Inoki chose not to do some stand-up fighting though.

[cokaneds]

I have no idea what the feck they were thinking when they decided this would actually be a good idea. -.-''

[Alex Mallinson]

Idk if there were any rules stopping inoki from using his full range of skills there was allegedly a rule saying inoki could only kick if he was on the ground his first kick in the fight and a few other things he does clearly seems to show me that it was not a rulein an interview with ali and blassie they said the only rules were that if someone was pinned down for 3 seconds or knocked down for 10 seconds they lost inoki probably lay on the floor to avoid the ko

You wouldn't really put this match in the category of boxing at all. The question is how come they allowed this type of match go ahead in the first place ?

[LucifersDemise]

Is this coming from a boxer? If not then please quiet down.

[Jack Wheatley]

Uh huh... Go try boxing fool

Inoki says "Perhaps something else in Ali's gloves that destroyed my rib".

[Lincoln Osiris]
