Ali didn't pass shit to Spinks. He defeated Spinks in the rubber match and Leon never did anything worthy after that beating.

Holmes took the torch followed by Tyson followed by Hollyfield ect....

Round 15 was BRUTAL. There was ZERO technique involved. Two guys trading bombs for the championship, pure and simple.

@unvaccmnger When I first clicked on the video, I thought "why does Ali look 'glassy' doesn't look like the sharp, brisk fighter that I remember him" then I read your comment about Parkinsons, then it made sense why Ali doesn't like the 'Ali' we all know.

Leon did more damage to every cell in this man's brain that anyone could imagine; sure, he took the kid too lightly and won a re-match...the greatest of ALL TIME should have determined this is IT...pay off your lackeys, attorneys, ex-wives, Chill! Tiger Woods... are ya' listenin...! George Foreman is inwardly having the best belly laugh of his life...

Funny to read nasty comments of emoran and lifeonbeach, both never know how the boxing is. If Ali is so weak like they commented, boxing commentators will not raise him as the greatest of all time. He gave boxing with good tactics and fighting with talents. Norton just talked big after fight but in the ring he has been taught the lesson twice same as Frazier who suffered seriously three times. Cooper with blood full on his face if the fight continues, British Cooper would be dead.
