Salute
Jeff Thomas thank you !!
When she gets hype she starts talking like her Dad a little bit. 😄 But she's aging like fine wine and makes that 42 look like 30.
Nah she looks her age at best she can pass for 38/39 but not 30, I don't know why ppl think that once you hit 40 you gotta look like you're a 60/70 year old..
@@Marvel_vs_Capcom84
I know plenty about how people look after 40. My comment isn't meant to be taken so seriously.
@@F.L.1 I am not saying Laila Ali doesn't look good because she definitely does , but again ppl can look good in there 40's and even 50's and some ppl don't , everyone ages differently and there is no specific way to look at any age , you can be 20 years old and look like you're closer to 40 and vise versa because again there is no specific way to look at any age..
@@Marvel_vs_Capcom84 Not saying anything I don't already know. It's a comment made in jest, not meant to be a factual study on age and appearances.
Firth Lathom I peeped that too 😂😂😂 those vowels have a distinct sound once the convo gets passionate 😂😂
She definitely is on point about Shields needing to refine her skills to finish her opponents as well as thinking life after boxing. The best wisdom comes from those who did it 👍🏾
But never talks about Clarissa shields
Shields is kicking ass she only supports the white girls
Kim Williams you should listen to the interview again
Yeah and I remember this 46 and will not forget this: ua-cam.com/video/9LHKt9OMGhA/v-deo.html
Dumbest comment ever
That cloth she is cut from is definitely different . That's legacy right there .
Lawrence Peterson Exactly!!!!
When she retire she is going to be a legend
@Trendset Fitness nah
What history has Laila Ali made? Clarissa shields on the other hand has made history just only in 10 fights and she still young and have a whole lot more time ahead of her
Theres no reason for laila n clarissa to ever fight, laila had her time now it clarissa time im just saying always respect the ones that paved the way for u.
But clareesa is calling her out!!
Tim Mcdowell true
Facts
@@christopherayettey4390 She's 42 man, leave Laila alone.
I love Ms. ALi but, she started this years ago and apparently she still talking like she want all the smoke. I say let them fight. We don't say shit when Mayweather, bernard Hopkins, and others be wanting to fight still.
People don’t seem to pay close attention. Laila spoke a lot more positive about the young lady Shields than she did negatively. She gave her props, and advice to keep working on getting better.
That's what I loved about Muhammad, and Laila is that they told the truth about themselves and what happened between them and their opponent in the ring..Can't find no lies 🤷🏾♀️
💯💯💯💯💯
Laila Ali is the truth 🤝🏽she is what young women should aspire to be and look up to 👑she is exactly who young girls should learn from when it comes to being a confident powerful strong independent woman 🥊👑🤝🏼👌🏼 she definitely stands for integrity like her dad🥊 #cap4life 🐐#goat know goat🐐
They don't need to prove anything to anyone. Two Queen's from two different generations.🖤🖤👑✊🏾
Laila has confidence that’s for sure like her Daddy
Laila been fine all her life 😍
fine not like wine more like dark sweet honey.
📠
Patrice 🤙 yeap
Patrice Get your hands/eyes offa my woman. !
💯
aint bothered lookin up laila ali in ages. dam. immediately likeable. just radiates champ. wow. powerful presence.
"There's a sweet science to boxing." Very true, Mama Ali.
Muhammad Ali is alive when Laila speaks
On God 💯
Hell.. nah!
@@jonez2020 .....What do you mean? they almost talk identical.
Errrrrm nope your gassed bruh🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
24 wins 21 KNOCK OUTS
NEVER LOST.
Lol lavar ball voice
Claressa Shields record is 10 fights and 10 wins and only 2 tko's. People are sleeping on Lali.
Leila was a hard puncher 👊 compared to claressa...
Against garbage opposition...Laila's name is what got he by
That’s because she ran from Ann Wolf.
Laila is definition of legends Daughter, she’s tough!
She’s nothing like her dad her dad is on another level
Sway. You wrong getting the queen riled up. Fighters are always fighters. No matter what.💯
Facts
Laila started it first a few years back.
Mike Tank Brown ll : yo, it don’t matter who started it. As I said fighters go always fight./ its in there spirt. I said sway was wrong for getting her riled up. When you are a competitor, and you thrive in conflict. All it takes is a Lil bit. Too bad we gotta get old. The body gotta get old. But the mind still likes the challenge. No matter if its physical, mental, etc.
I love her, her dad so inspired me.
Much respect to brother Muhammad Ali
she really does have her daddy’s competitive spirit
Prettiest fighter ever ❤️
She’s so much like her daddy, it’s crazy....
Nothing like her father only same thing is the stupid trash talk he was on another level compared to her not even close
Adam Edwards you sittin her hatin on a female who doesnt know you exists. your father failed you
Truly Makel hating on a girl who wishes she was anything close to her dads skill she is deluded calling herself the Gwoat have a laugh get your head out of her ass and he didn’t fail me but your feminist brigade don’t work on me
@@adamedwards4839 stupid trash talk is only stupid when it's not backed up
She is her daddy’s child
She handled that shields question nicely .
I love Laila and her energy Clarrissa is good but Laila is a legend, a Queen ... Laila paved the way for female boxers coming up behind her ✨💕 Keep schooling em Laila 💪🏾
I really don’t think Laila said anything disrespectful, she just spoke up for herself AFTER Claressa said something about beating Laila.
Laila said something first on the breakfast Club saying there's no one in women's division worth fighting never mentioned shields directly which shields is part of that division
Laila Ali BEEN throwing shots at claressa. Claressa is now starting to take shots back. Kno the facts
Laila hasn’t said anything wrong.
Naw she aint give props when they do. On top of all that tell her to pass the Crown. She was the champ and TRex is the champ!
Neither did claressa all seems pretty petty to me.
your right
I can’t believe she said Katie Taylor is her favorite. That’s the proof right there. Katie isn’t even that serious
@@pittypatboxing3542 THIIISSS 💯
Sway is literally trying to sell this fight and have Laila come out of retirement. Had both of em up there a week apart 😂.
Right? 😂😂😂😂
Laila is passed her prime and is the GOAT
Ness Rosenbrad ua-cam.com/video/L0u7Ucbzj7g/v-deo.html
Ali wouldnt even fight Ann Wolfe when Ali was in her prime so I seriously doubt a 42 year old Ali would fight a prime Shields.
@@jbcool9178: You didn't watch the interview I see.
I've been saying this about Clarissa for the longest.. I've been called a hater and jealous of a woman.. lmao.. thanks for this Laila....
I agree yes. Claressa is talented, but she has something to prove.
"My lane is closed. Go start your own lane." #LifeYourLife
💎💎💎💎
damn right, life your life!
Trendset Fitness Clareesa has interviews trying to fight Laila from 2019. Lmao. Sis been wanted that CLOUT. She started it, Laila said something simple. Nobody knows that Clareesa is doing the most because y’all haven’t seen it. She was waiting for someone to ask Laila a question about her so she can chase the bag.
IKnewIWasThe Shit jealous of whaaaaaaaaaaatttt lol
She definitely her daddy daughter 😂😂💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Jaleil Jones shut the hell up please
Did yall see that rage come out of her she still got that fire
Mann
Yeah and she can still get kicked on her behind flashback ua-cam.com/video/9LHKt9OMGhA/v-deo.html
@Eezzy John I for one am a fan of the GWOAT but I'd never say for sure who'd win. Damn...i wish man i wish
Countiss Richardson yeaaaaaaa
Link? What Rage?
I absolutely love this one woman. Her response was impeccable, well spoken, and honest. ✨✨✨✨✨✨❤️❤️🌹🌹💕 The Real GWOAT!
They wasted half this interview on Claressa Shields questions...I would've rather hear about Laila Ali's current projects, businesses, family stories,etc, etc
nah we want the #fighttalk. It would literally make history, and put womens boxing on the map.
well isnt this the reason why shes up there..
@@pryorkennel no it wasn't the reason she was there, which is why they asked her to come back. She was there to talk about her other business ventures and what she's doing. We black people always like to compare, compete, and tear each other down 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
@@ericstroud8189 you want me to believe that claressa was up there and talked about Laila and then all of a sudden Laila comes up there and get asked about what she thinks about what claressa said and basically spent the whole time talking about that .. so you want me to believe that she didnt go up there to defend herself ok.. dont put me in the "we" category because I dont think in a bubble
@@pryorkennel you see that's a lot of people problem, you do think in the same bubble 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ you I follow Laila Ali and she does interviews all the time and 95 percent of them aren't about Shield's, she has other things going on in her life where she doesn't have to talk about boxing as she states ALL THE TIME that she didn't make a lot of money boxing, so what's her motivation to talk about Clarissa Shield when she gets nothing from it ? Seems to me that Shield need Ali name for clout 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
DAMN THAT RESPONSE CAME QUICK!!! Wonder how long ago this interview was booked
Whaat response
And she still looking better than beautiful...!!
She handled this interview like a Queen. Classy which the other young lady is missing. They do not sound the same Sway...
We don't need the back and forth.... Lets just uplift on another, it's not worth it... Black unity is what we need... For the record Ms. Shields is talented
Amen
Laila is the elder she should act better
Pittypat Boxing bs she’s still a competitor at heart and has every right to stand up for herself
The girl didn't even say anything bad about her that's how I know Clarissa is a good person u can tell Laila is insecure and not a nice person
Josh O because Laila ducked Wolfe natscha rogoma, leita Robinson Mia St. John Lucia rijiker Ijeoma and Mary joe sanders
Wow she just said it so right: There’s Mohammad Ali in all of Us. 👏👏👏👏
What’s crazy is Ann Wolfe told me the same things when I brought up Claressa... said she was very talented but needs to work on her skills to maximize her potential... All 3 of em 🐐 in my book 🤷🏿♂️
Already! Ann was great in her right shout out to Austin Texas, for I've been to her gym back when I lived in Austin working for Dell computers. Whether who wanted to fight who and when only Ali and wolfe know that and those in their circle. #facts Texas all day south park H-town Texas forever.
She was spitting facts about the lack of knockouts ole girl has.
A win is a win
Idk Alslston Yup!!!!
You must not understand the fact Laila was a protected boxer. More then Anthony Joshua. Because of who her daddy was. She straight up hating. Clarissa is a real boxer. Laila was a face for boxing. It's a diff.
Idk Alslston like Ann Wolfe
Idk Alslston 🗣🗣🗣
We need a ann Wolfe interview lmao we need this fight
That chick is terrifying
Ann Wolfe was the truth
Clearly not too terrifying, to get that ahh knocked out by someone Laila beat twice 😂
@@genuineguy9616 Well, to be fair, Ann Wolfe beat that woman twice as well after her loss! Proved that TKO was just a fluke herself.
@@1BALINT1 whatever u say and wanna believe 😂😂. That asx hit the mat tho🤷🏾♂️🛌🏾🚶🏾♂️😴😴. Laila would've done worse, possibly comatose her asx😂👊🏾
Fast and Furious always puts white female fighters in their movies. They need to put a Laila or a Claressa in the next one. Da fuq.
Word.
I saw this one low budget movie that had a lot of white female mma fighters in this movie, and I swear, they made black women look real bad!!!
They had these white girls beating the shit out of the black women in this movie. I had to turn that shit off.
Nhayah Goode real shit
Real talk.. Rousey was in it .. Yup
Foreall baby girl ‼‼‼
Wow this was a faster response I ever heard
Lest Tat: and her hands are faster than her responses...lmao!
ua-cam.com/video/L0u7Ucbzj7g/v-deo.html
Sway trying to start some bullshit
@@montbrink4700: Right
Her Dad taught her well. Much respect to you, Laila
I'm still in love with her 😍😍😍😍
She a fraud
G. C. You comment same thing!!
When I talk to my daughters she’s a woman I reference to as a role model for them she’s dope 💪🏾💯
the GOAT beautiful, intelligent, strong and still very feminine...this woman is amazing
TALK THAT TALK LAILA!!!!"💪
laila handled herself with class
What I noticed about Clarissa and Laila Ali when they both talked about fighting you could tell that they just have a passion to fight and this is beyond boxing they just really like being physically brutal so they both passionately love to fight so this is not just a sport for them this is a way of life and that's wonderful to see fearlessness
Jordyn Taylor Yeah I see it in laila’s eyes.
@@pauloskidane2819 yeah. I think if she was at least 10 years younger she would have definitely without a doubt took on Clarissa Shields challenge but for Laila Ali to ask an even younger Clarissa Shields at the time for sparring session is more of her trying to test how good this girl really is it wasn't to teach her because why would you even want to do something like that unless it's to see if you are capable of beating her that's really for a self ego stroke I feel as though Laila Ali was trying to accomplish so Clarissa Shields had every right to turn that down and demand a fight instead
Mind, body and spirit...Ms. Ali continues to be an inspiration to all of us, male and female to make a difference. Class personified. And she's STILL fine!
Ooooh you have a good cameraman there Sway, keep him in the family bro, the way he 'accurately' zoomed in on your when you were giving her her flowers, was NICE. From one videographer to another. 1.19-1.23 I believe. :)
Laila Ali a big thank u for ur maturity n your reputable remarkable sweet way of talking LUV U😚😚
Shields my girl but Laila Ali the legend.
Such a beautiful spirit. I will always respect you, Ms. Laila Ali, for what you stand for!
She’s my favorite female fighter. Confident, but also humble. I think she would beat Clarissa easily.
Ali was so well spoken and preaching facts and i love what she said. A real black woman right there. Love you for taking the high road.
“She don’t want those hands”
Sway: Come on don’t, don’t say that 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I'm 42 also! Omg I never knew my dream woman and I were born in the exact same year. From this Interview I adore her even more. You can't buy class❗
she's a rider...
dont let her age,
get u on the wrong page..
she still got that rage...
she just keep it in the cage.
She will whoop that little girl at this age I'm willing ta bet a rack
Yesss
@@feldercowart422 she will not knock Ali out ur trippin shields is not a boxer she is a brawler she will get demolished
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 T-Rex would completely own Lalia...PLEASE LET HER COME OUT OF RETIREMENT....I AM BEGGING....My money is on T-Rex.
Felder Cowart what ass did she knock out ??? none
Always admire and respect Laila Ali she always epitomi of class and grace...having an icon as an parent ,but still being able to be humble....love her!
She sound like she got a beast mode in that personality.
I just keep rewinding back to see her face when she said she can't beat me lol
I've seen her in person... Absolutely gorgeous. So much respect for her and her DAD
She talks like her father with confidence and have backed it up like her father............
Laila has so much appealing and marketable qualities that Clarissa will never have........its not even close. Laila is a gem
She said " There's a Muhammad Ali in all of us." great comment.
Laila Ali can fight for real, a boxing fan since watching with my Dad as a child. She a true volunteer and champion for youth. She came to a high school I worked for and mentored the youth. Just like her Dad the ‘Greatest’ , always helping when no one is looking.❤️ I seen her whip this girl ass as in a match 🤣. Powerful and technical fighter .....
Oh wow... Tell me more about her whooping that girl's ass
Laila Ali inspired a new profound respect in the Ali family and coming behind her dad is hard but she handled this very classy, I think she deserves 3 million and Clarissa deserves 1.5 million and we need to make this fight happen
Love and respect this interview
Sway is messy for this one. Smh Lmao
He needs views and trying to compete with the breakfast club.
Ben Fardin people period I don’t know too many black people that even watch this show FOH clown
Say what you want, this helps gives Claressa more shine. Idk any other women boxers than her.
GoodFilms28 you clearly aren’t a real boxing fan then so stfu, shields is more relevant than this old hag stop it
elton thomas sway don’t need to compete with the breakfast club. He been doing what the breakfast club did since the 90s. Google him
Laila is so classy #aliway
Word ! Unlike a Claressa who would have been classy if not for her yippy yappy tap mouth water always running
Not in my opinion. Seems self centered and jealous as hell
Nawww
@@trebonejones410 really 🤔
Laila Ali is such a classy Sista, proud of her.
Always stylish classy and not trashy that's the upbringing of Laila Ali congratulations on so many wonderful things you have going on you have grew up in front of the media have been blessed with wonderful parents and you have kept it 100 all your life your children are truly blessed to have a mama like you to keep them in check implanted with their feet on the ground may the Lord continue to always bless you
Put some respect on Ali name
Lol
Why
The name definitely holds respect... The rest?????
Put same respect on it!!!!
That is a GOOD LOOKING women
Big Facts
Facts rate for a female fighter
I really like you sway, You out Claressa Shields on and now you have Laila. No other platform is smart enough to create this dynamic and present both sides of this tension.
Wow I love when people talk they shit, I've watched when Clarissa was on the breakfast club and I was like damn Laila throwing shade at her like that? Then I watched this to be sure, and I must say, Laila is the truth, so is Clarissa, but Laila is a different kind of truth. Everything that Laila said, was not to disrespect her but to put her up on game, that's it and for whatever reason Clarissa took as a diss. I feel like Clarissa is really feeling herself to the point where she now can't take constructive criticism from anyone specifically from Laila.
No, she is from my city , she doesn't like her
i agree
Marvin Simons unfortunately that’s the younger generation
Marvin Simons BINGO🎯
Shields vs Ali would have been dope I remember fighting on Laila underCard at Cobo arena In Downtown Detroit She was preparing for her fight at Kronk I was there she definitely got skills and Clarissa won 2 Gold Medals shout out 2 both Ladies
she is so beautiful!
She's slightly above average. She has the super pie face. Simmer down.
Buckdance
swuave29 just lightskin
colesrk show your face!
Where is she beautiful at 🤢🤮
Salaam!!! A CLASS ACT! What’s a competition to a Winner!!! Laila Gang!!!
Still drop dead gorgeous!
There's a Muhammad Ali in all of us. Greatest quote of all time. Yessirrr!
Both talented boxers. If you listen to Laila's interview on the breakfast club earlier, she stated that Clarissa was a talented boxer.
Always love her balance of toughness, strength, intellect and beauty.
Claressa tells a very different story on the breakfast club. I wonder who is telling the truth?
@John Doe nah going by facial expressions I think Claressa is telling the truth tbh.
By the way she’s breathing while telling this I think Laila is lying
@@jx9520 that's just emotions
@@mitzigainer3428 How you know
prob claressa
A tremendous and powerful episode! Big up to the Queen and the living legend Laila Ali
Liala is the best, I like everything about her, the way she carry herself is just Immaculate, she was blessed with God given talent like her Dad, see that's the difference between her and Cherissa ,now Cherissa is a great boxer but let's keep it real she couldn't have touched liala back then or now
Yup u are right. Love both sisters but Clarissa has no respect for ppl that paved the way for her
Facts❗
The greatest has spoken and laid down the words. The legacy is in Laila. I, genuinely, love her and character as a woman. "The Greatest"💥💥💝💝
Shields didn't say any of this in her interview.. I'm dead...... I love Laila!!!!! She's the Dammmm GWOAT!
Laila is a rare breed of fearless women fighters that are also eloquent & beautiful mashallah She really does remind me so much of her dad the great Mohamed Ali, two legends!
Claressa Shields needs to be respectful no matter what...Tyson was very careful when speaking about people like Ali that paved the way. He wanted no comparisons.
D. Corey watch her interview with the breakfast club she was being respectful.
Naquan Nimmons very !
D. Corey wtf Tyson got to do with it???
@@m2a6n0o0 He's one of the best to do it aka a boxer duh,and was asked about those that came before him.His response was very mature.Clarisa should watch all that and be very careful.
The best undefeated ICON: Daughter very respectful and appreciated, Claressa be careful and be respectful to the person that opened the ways for women boxers period
She is truly her fathers child! Yes!, she is Dope😎😏
And I’m about to Check on those seasonings 💪🏽
Have her back! I’m about to go UA-cam a few of her fights😅🤷🏾♂️
NOTHING BUT LOVE FOR HER AND HER DAD...
She heard that quick
When Laila showed that HAND WORK omg I fell in love ❤go AUNTIE and how humble she is omg she makes me so happy I started boxing
Man I love Claressa And Laila both...
I ordered and love the seasonings!! Especially, the salt free blends!!
Clarissa and Ali need to get together and spar, and squash this back and forth
She is in her 40's she doesn't like Clarissa
Rick J. Did you NOT hear what she just said??!
@@kimwilliams1402 when did she say Anything about not liking clarissa?
LAILA IS 42 YEARS OLD. Retired for well over A DECADE. THEY are from two TOTALLY different generations. Get real.
I'm glad Sway did this. Lala got her side of the story out.
