Dude began the decade with people hating him to his phone ringing off the hook with endorsements ... and still didn't have to kiss any ass in the process.
I was born in 67, I recall him doing a bunch of commercials, endorsements etc. lol I was a little tomboy and I loved boxing, wrestling etc and I loved Ali. When I say wrestling, I mean Olympic style wrestling. My father was an Olympic hopeful at one time, before I was born, and was a University coach when I was 8 until 11 or 12 ish years old.
Wow! I remember these ads as a kid! Lookin at it now, of all the products to sell, why they had Ali selling stuff to kill roaches!!? HA! That’s as low as u can get. Why not Mr. Clean, cereal, orange juice, coffee?? ANYTHING but roach killer. Ha!

Amazing. I was born in 75 and have zero recollection of these commercials.

The best forever ♥️
He sure was smooth on that commercial he probably did that in one take knowing Muhammad Ali
Only America would reduce a man of this status down to having to do this to pay the bills =/
Ali would have stay healthy and fresh like this if he was stay retired since 1978
These are gems.
Since of my earliest memories of Muhammad Ali were those d-Con commercials. In 1980 I was 4 years old.
Champ gave my step dad a job selling Muhammad Ali hair care products. I had the chance to speak to him on the phone once. RIP Champ!
he hit the shit outta that bag lol
I remember these...
DCON Four Gone. KILLS ROACHES DEAD. Classic
I can whoop anything on two legs lol!!!! Already champ.

he did many different commercials. burgers, motor craft parts .loads
I feel embarrassed for him for doing this....the Greatest selling roach spray. He didn't need to do this.
It's money with no risk of concussion and it's doing a useful service to other people.
