@@devonalexandra9963 Terrell had a swollen eye from Ali fouling him with the ropes. He should have been disqualified, Terrell won the fight anyway. How many punches did Ali land in the 9th round? I counted one or two out of 42. Those are the facts, elephant man is childish bullshit.
This is the sweet science. Dancing up on your toes for 15 rounds picking the guy apart till he's ready to kill himself, while at the same time dodging multiple punches while being within a inch of his reach. Unreal. The true sweet science, hit, not get hit, and hit back while being up on your toes.

ali was still not in his prime in this fight, he was beginning to reach his peak if he wasn't banned for almost 4 years he could have reached his prime and would have been even better than he is in this fight.
I agree. As Ferdie Pacheco has said, taking those years from Ali essentially voided great works of art from existence. Maybe like if Picasso had been barred from painting during a critical point in his creative peak. The window for boxing is small and he was barely 25 when banned.
And Ali upon his return was still the right age for a mobile heavyweight to be in his prime, but 3 yrs 7months of inactivity robbed him of the his ability to stay sharp and remain at peak fighting shape. Ali, of course, adjusted later on in becoming a heavier punching fighter with a magnificent chin.
Man... Look how QUICK Muhammad was in his prime. Goodness gracious... No man wouldve beat him like this. I think he would have been like this for ALOT longer without that 3 year break. He was just in his prime, and if he were to fight from 68-70, he wouldve been even better than this.
Ali would make a fool out of the guys today. Ali would have made a fool out of Tyson. It's obvious that Ali is the greatest fighter of all time. Hands down
ostuffman So you think that's the best Tyson there is? Look what 200 pound frazier did to Ali. Tysons faster, stronger, hits harder, better defense, better combinations etc then frazier.
Muhammad Ali from the 60s was the best fighter of all time,. U couldn't touch him. None of his fights from the 60s were dull to look at, always a thrilling moment. His foot speed, hand speed, head movement and his famous Ali shuffle were unchallenged.
That's not true. In 1963 Henry Cooper 'touched him' quite a bit. Not known for foot or hand speed, Cooper landed numerous left hooks and nearly KO'D Ali. When Ali tried to avoid punches by pulling his head back, that didn't work very well either. Cooper must have landed 10 good shots to Ali's head as he tried to avoid those shots with head movement but without trying to block them. The fight before that, also in 1963, Doug Jones was landing plenty of hard shots on Ali, nearly knocked him down in the 1st round. It was at a time in which Ali tried to back-pedal and use head movement to avoid being hit, but it didn't work consistently against Jones either. So why did it seem to work so well against Liston, a fighter better than either Cooper or Jones by a wide margin? The answer is simple; the fight was fixed, Liston was doing his best to avoid hitting Ali.
Mr.Marco...winning a World Title does something to a mediocre fighter...those fights were before he became World Champion....He was Unbeatableand Untouchable when he became Champion of the World!!!
@@hemadayal7815 The 2 fights I mentioned were just prior to the fight with Liston. Only some months had passed until he fought Liston. There was no dramatic improvement for Ali during the months between fights. The upset win by Ali was so unlikely that many felt the need to explain how Liston could have lost. All of the reasons given in the decades since are bullshit. #1- Liston's shoulder injury was a lie. #2- Liston didn't train hard because he thought Ali would be easy. This is false as well. #3-Liston was out late the night before and he got drunk. Everyone in boxing at the time knew that Liston took every fight very seriously. He trained hard for each fight, there were no exceptions. #4- Liston feared Ali because he thought that Ali was crazy. Another lie. Liston got into a fight with a cop, he took the cops gun away from him, then put the cop head-first into a garbage dumpster. If Liston did this to an armed cop, why would he fear a frail young kid such as Ali? #5- Liston might have been as much as 45 years old when they fought in Miami. This is a baseless fallacy. Sonny looked like a full grown man at 15, he always had the look of a man 10 years older than he was. There was an issue regarding the month that Sonny was born, his mother told 2 different reporters that Sonny was born in 1932. One reporter claimed that she said he was born in January of 1932, the other said she told him he was born in May of 1932. These dates only change his age by a few months, or by nothing at all. At first there was no controversy but eventually people felt the need to explain how the upset could have taken place. Some went so far as to claim he may have been in his late 40's or early 50's for the Miami fight. Sonny was not in his late 40's that night, he was 31. Sonny was the last of 25 children in his family. With that many children it would be nearly impossible to be wrong about his age by more than a few months., The reason is that each child knew which siblings were older and which were younger. Sonny went to school along with siblings that were a year or two older than he was. His age therefore would have to fit the age of his closest siblings. The answer to this life-long mystery surrounding the first fight between Ali and Liston is quite simple. No excuses are necessary to explain how it happened. I need only the truth, and the truth is that both fights between these 2 men were fixed. The fight was fixed, it's as simple as that. began exaggerating. Some went so far as to claim he may have been in his late 40's or early 50's for the Miami fight. Sonn
@@hemadayal7815You Got That Right 👍.... "( And If The Referee Had Called All Those 🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰 Rabbit Punches From Terrell He Wouldn't Have Lasted That Long)"????
@@MrMarco855That’s nonsense! Liston hadn’t trained much for the title fight with Cassius Clay in 1964, he assumed he’d crush Clay in a couple of rounds. So did everyone else who watched that fight. Clay was a 7-1 underdog. Liston hadn’t fought more than two rounds in the previous two years, having destroyed Patterson twice in a single round. Liston juiced his gloves after the fourth round and Clay was blinded in round 5, and Liston still couldn’t knock him out. By the 7th round, Liston was clearly exhausted, his shoulder was injured before the fight and he quit on his stool despite his cornermen screaming at him to get up and fight. There’s no evidence that Liston threw that fight. None at all. It’s a silly notion. Clay was just a much better fighter. Much too quick for Liston.
It never ceases to amaze me how these guys could fight for 15 straight rounds back then... Most fighters today can barely make it 12. And as a testament to Ali's physical prowess, he comes out in round 15 looking like it's the first--bouncing and weaving from side to side. This may not be Ali's greatest fight but if there's anything to take away from it, it's the incredibly superior conditioning that Ali had achieved.
Interesting how you did not name any heavyweights on your list of fighters. There is a reason boxing matches do not last 15 rounds any more. Think about that. If you have been watching boxing for over 30 years, like I have, you see the obvious degradation of virtually every fighter in the later rounds--especially heavyweights. There is a big difference between "lasting" 12 rounds in a sweaty hug-fest and bouncing on your toes, bobbing and weaving like Ali. But don't take my word for it, just read what any boxing writer has to say about it. No nostalgia...just basic common sense biology.
primovid A lot of it is also due to the ref's lack of judgement or when they're paid to let a lot of boxers, who aren't liked by the decision makers, get seriously hurt. This why I think Ali would've been in much better condition if he retired at least a little earlier. You see in his last fight against Holmes where even Holmes wants to stop the fight cuz he thinks it's too much but the ref doesn't stop it
Yeah, its one of the things about the younger Ali that is apparent. He could go 15 rounds and not tire. Later in the 1970s, he didn't have that type of endurance.
Terrell said on numerous occasions that Ali thumbed in the eye, forcing him to switch to a peek-a-boo stance, but in the first round Ernie is already fighting in that style
15 rounds toe to toe fight with a 6'6 behemoth and not even one scratch on that face. And the fact that he can dance for 15 rounds is just amazing. The greatest.
I feel so proud, thanks Mohamed Ali for all what you did for ISLAM and for the poor people , you will stay in our eyes the greatest fighter " May God bless you"
Cosell: Ali, Joe Louis said youre a Great fighter! Ali: I don't need Joe Louis to say Im great! Ive been telling you Im Great for 6 years. Cosell: Humility is nowhere in that man.
That's right! Joe seemed to be against Ali for a while and I believe what Ali meant by that...is that he didn't need validation from the power structure, or its representatives, that he was great.
Really wasnt that great of a fight..ali doing what he mostly does..run grab tire out opponent jab em up win points etc...besides his opponent wasnt much to worry about...
Ernie Terrell was just about the dirtiest fighter I ever saw. I saw him hit an opponent so low that his glove entered the other guys trunks from below. He got stuck with his fist wrapped up in the other guy's shorts. The referee had to untangle them. This was amazing when you consider how tall Terrell was.
I attended this fight in person at the Astrodome, and Ali completely dominated Ernie Terrell. Seeing it again here on UA-cam further confirmed how lopsided it was. Ernie fought defensively throughout and was very awkward to fight. As I recall Ernie fought only one time after he sustained this beating, and I believe he lost that next fight and retired. If I am wrong about that I stand corrected.
Lucky guy to be at that fight! Yeah you are wrong...Ernie was back six months later being decisioned by Thad Spencer and then Manual Ramos two months after that. Ernie fought on six more years, winning his next seven fights and losing his last two. Ernie's career of 46 wins and 9 losses spanned 16 years. If in doubt use Wikipedia....in seconds you'll know what you need to know.
Vasantha Perera I had no idea Ernie fought that many more fights and for that many years after the Ali fight. I stand corrected. It appears you are also a big fan of Ernie's. He certainly comes across as a very nice man. I don't believe he was the same fighter after the Ali fight. I believe it took a lot out of him.
jp3923 I'm actually not a fan at all and didn't like his style of fighting in the Ali fight....rabbit and kidney punching whilst holding. Chuvalo employed similar tactics with Ali and Patterson, but when Ernie and George fought each other they boxed more conventionally and the fight was pretty clean......Ali's and Floyd's speed were such strong factors that that seemed the only way to get any punches into them. Like I said, just type Wikipedia into google and from there you can see most well known boxer's bio's and match records....for the less famous ones and the most comprehensive guide to all their weights for each bout and the record of almost any boxer who ever stepped into the ring go to boxingrec.
Vasantha Perera Thank you, Vasantha. I really appreciate your informed comments and recommendation. I will do so. PS: You mentioned Floyd Patterson. I saw him fight Roy Harris. He was a favorite. He was very skilled and an extraordinary individual. I wish he had stayed in the light heavyweight division, but the money wasn't there. I don't believe anyone in that division would have ever defeated him. His chin would have stood up in that classification. He was an extraordinary person. I was saddened when he passed away. He was beacon in a sport that sometimes is quite shady.
Interesting! Thanks for your input. If you get a chance, check out a 2009 documentary called "Facing Ali". it has insight from most of Ali's opponents like terrell, chuvalo, foreman, cooper, holmes, shavers, even spinks. not only do they touch upon their fights with ali, you also get a little backstory about the fighters themselves. for example, terrell was supposed to fight ali after liston vs ali 1, but had to back out because his mob-tied manager got his butt beat up and put into a hospital.
At his peak Ali had reflexes that were unreal. The way he slips punches (while leaning back!) with such ease just amazes me. It's like he had built in radar. what he did in the 70s with diminished skills is what enhanced his legend but in the 60s he was absolutely unbeatable.
A the time I thought Ernie's jab and grab style would give Ali trouble. He was a very tough guy to fight and made a habit of making opponents look bad. My suspicions turned out to be wrong. It was this fight that confirmed my opinion that Ali was the greatest heavyweight of all time.
Ernie resorting to the rabbit punch for 4 rounds then the high defense. But my lord, Ali's reflexes and spatial awareness are unworldly. Respect to Ernie, but Ali was truly the greatest of all times.
Terrell hardly there a punch in the whole fight. That’s probably why he went the distance. He didn’t lower his guard at all and do Ali couldn’t really land a KO punch.
This fight shows how sad it was that Ali lost 3 years in the court fight. He was a great fighter when he came back but he never regained the incredible speed of his hands and feet which are apparent in this and his early fights.
The lay off was a cruel blessing in disguise...it enabled the world to see just what a multi -talented boxer he was...in the 6o's speed..70's endurance ..cunning..FEARLESSNES..SUPER CONFIDENCE THAT NORMAN VINCENT PEALE..WOULD HAVE APPROVED...
love watching fights and interviews with the great old boxers, so many of them seem like down to earth decent & intelligent guys - unlike the crappy hype they were given while in the game - screw the media.
Yeah, I have seen a few Ali fights as a small child. Ali often got hit in the back of the head by his opponents mostly because Ali knew how to tie up when fighters got to close and as a results, his opponents would just swing for the back of his head hoping to hit anything. But, did you noticed something watching Ali clench? What other sport teach their fighters to do this technique that Ali is applying? Take a wild guest.
Flavio KS All through the eighth round and especially at the end of the eighth round where you clearly hear him as the bell rings say to Terrell, “What’s my name?”. Round 8 starts at 30:56. In the beginning of the round as Ali comes off his stool he yells to Terrell "You're going to say my name!", it sounds muffled because of the mouthpiece but you hear him saying it to Terrell. Around 30:59 Ali feints Terrell with a jab and Terrell flinches, Ali then throws a hook as Terrell leans in, The hook lands on the wrist of Terrell knocking down Terrell's guard allowing Ali to follow with a hard quick jab to the face, Just before Ali throws the hard quick jab, Ali says "Say my name". As soon as that punch lands, Ali grumbly yells what's my name almost in a frustrated tone. From that point, up until 32:40, Ali toys with Terrell even allowing Terrell to rally a little without any real damage to Ali. At 32:40 Ali yells, "Say my name" then proceeds to jab through Terrell' guard. At this point, it seems Ali is ready to punish Terrell again based on the fury of the next few punches that Ali throws a hard left followed by a right over the top and a left uppercut underneath as Terrell gets knocked sideways from the right hand straight into the left uppercut. Furious, Ali drops his hands and you can clearly hear him say, Say my name!!! After that Ali just starts welling on poor Terrell and keeps on yelling to him to say my name. Once in a clinch, he holds Terrell by the neck and leans into his hear and yells to him to say his name. At one point in the round towards the end, former Heavyweight Champion Great Joe Louis says, Clay is talking to Terrell to that replied George Chuvalo, a contender at the time saying, “he asking him what my name is” (this takes place from 33:04 - 33;09). Howard Cossell, the play by play great says that Ali said (previously in an interview with Ali, Terrell and Cossell) he was going to humiliate him. Howard goes on to say, I hardly think it’s necessary and asked if Joe agrees with it. Joe chuckles and says that he doesn’t know about that and says but he thinks Clay can do whatever he wants to do in that ring. All the while Ali is punishing Terrell and yelling at him to say his name and asking him what’s his name. In the last few seconds of the last round, Ali keeps hitting Terrell, who trying his best to defend himself but to no avail. Ali is yelling at him, “What’s my name, huhn?” Ali says it like three times at the end of the round even dropping his hands as the bell sounds and you can clearly hear Ali repeatedly say or ask Terrell, “What’s my name, huhn?” Joe Louis repeats the drama as Ali sits on his stool at the end of the round and Howard Cossell goes on to explain to the viewers, that “The What’s My Name diatribe was started as a question by Ali to Terrell when Terrell kept calling Ali by his birth name “Clay” in a recent interview between Cosell and the fighters. Ali had just converted to Islam and had joined the Nation of Islam and had his name changed from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali. In this interview, Ali became angry with Terrell for refusing to call him Ali and choosing instead to call him what his momma called him when she gave birth to him, "Clay". After the eighth round, Ali continues to taught him. In round 9 Ali gets off his stool to start the round still talking trash. He tells Terrell he can hit him anytime and that he Terrell can’t hit him. Ali demonstrates this by “riding Terrell’s punches as Terrell futilely misses a few jabs follow by a left to which Ali casually rides the punches. At this point, Cossell is asking Louis is Ali carrying Terrell at this point in the fight implying that Ali could knock him out at anytime but was letting Terrell stay in the fight (so that it would look like Terrell was competitive). Louis responds that Ali could knock him out by making reference to Floyd Patterson fight who Ali knocked out the fight before in the 6th round. Since Ali wasn’t looking like he was trying to knock out Terrell, Louis suggest that he was carrying Terrell. George Chauvalo chimes in he thinks so too but suggest that Ali was trying to humiliate Terrell and that was the reason why Ali was carrying him. (Side note; Ali wanted to severely punish Terrell and some believed that Ali didn’t want to knock him out but just wanted to punish him every round. However after the fight in an interview with Cossell, Ali said that he couldn’t knock Terrell out). Anyways, from round 9 on, Ali continues to taunt and punishTerrell. In round 9, he tells him he is going to make him retire. He tells him to look at his eyes. At the beginning of round 10, Ali comes off the stool and points to his face mocking Terrell about how ugly his face looks while Ali’s looks pretty (untouched). Anyways, I gave you enough now go watch the fight for yourself and listen.
One of the few fights Ali seemed to really want to do damage. Usually he showed compassion, even against Foreman. That said, his speed and reflexes were masterful. He should have blocked the rabbit punches since the ref was allowing them, but aside from that, he easily negated Terrell's jab and kept him in a shell while disfiguring his face.
@@liamgardner6033 I,m really not sure why I stated that ?? .. Maybe I just wanted people to know that Ali is known and respected all over the world ...
Terrel constantly throwing foul punches below waist, on the back of Ali's head and desperately trying to insert his thumb into Ali's eye, yet has the nerve to claim Ali fouled. Unbelievable.
You are so right. Terrell fouled Ali the entire fight and that joke of a referee never ever gave Terrell so much as a warning. His license should've been revoked after this fight.
What a sad jerk. He hit Ali round after round in the clinches on the back of Ali’s head and neck and back and occasionally bellow the belt, yet the first thing he says is Ali fouled him. Pathetic, he got what he deserved.
He had Muhammed like speed I think. And Holyfield was more powerfull than Ali. He was more physical fighter. Faught like a gladiator. Ali faught like a boxing angel.
Ali in the 60s never had his eyes swollen or look beat up it was always the other guy. Ali was just as pretty after the fight as he was before the fight.
@@ualreadyknow9746 I don’t know why you guys always bring up that little boy mayweather he’s not even near to be compared to Ali in any form, he’s a middle weight, that weights about 68kg and Ali is a heavyweight with weight about 107 kg so that makes a lot of difference and anyhow That dude is never comparable with goat Ali
Ali easily shows here his incredible energy to keep up that dancing, and more importantly - no one else has his greased lightning reactions to avoid a punch!
Damn "Cosell why is it every time he makes a comment he needs someone too agree with him? Yet Joe Louis didn't when Ali was beating the brakes off of Terrell while asking (What's my name) Cosell said Ali didn't need to humiliate Terrell, then asked Louise if he agreed and Joe said No I wouldn't say that because Ali could do whatever he wanted too"! RIP The "GOAT"!!!
ALI, WAS ''HYPING THE GATE"'.LOOK AT THE QUALITY OF TV COVERAGE CHANGE FROM ,lISTON TO LEON ,ALSO THE DRAW. love him or hate him, Ali changed boxing forever.
hexoonable Ali prooved he can take a punch that can take down a building later in the 70s when he didnt move at all.Some people can move,few can take what he can for 15 rounds,and 15 round fights are no more.
I see some people saying that Ali was a dirty fighter in these comments. Never mind the fact that Terrell was throwing rabbit and kidney punches the entire fight and just pawed and held for the entire latter half hoping to catch Ali with a lucky punch, legal or otherwise. Ali totally could have knocked him out at 27:51 in the seventh round when he had him hurt on the ropes, but instead waited for him to turn around and face up before throwing punches... man, what a dirt bag! Who does that? Oh wait... real boxers.
Ernie Terrell although was a tough and rough fighter, was one dimensional and he followed Muhammad Ali in the ring; and not much besides that. Ernie's high guard got him blasted by many jabs, uppercuts, left and right hooks all throughout the fight; on the contrary, Muhammad Ali did a phenomenal job marking his opponent's face all the while making sure he came out without scratch, employing a simple tactics.
Muhammad Ali did believe in the right only one god (almighty Allah) and Allah had him all his life to live a champion & he died in comfort.. May almighty have peace on you Champion
Kinda disrespectful how Joe Dimagio was also refusing to call him Ali while commentating. He kept saying Clay while the main guy respectfully called him Ali.
omg ali refuse to give a single illegal punch while that other boxer keep doing it ... and at the end he was talking about ali giving him illegal punches .... weak boxer Terrel
Website guy So you're trying to tell me Terrel didn't headlock even ONCE during this ENTIRE FIGHT!? INCLUDING the illegal punches? AND HIM being the one NOT letting go?! HAAHHAHAHAHAH Just stop.
I can't believe how dirty Terrell was fighting. That was ridiculous. I am 100% positive this immensely contributed to Ali's development of Parkinson's.
The iconic "What's my name" fight. Terrell literally is not a good boxer. His style looks uncoordinated. Didn't expect the legendary Joe Louis to be there, too. But strange even he didn't call Ali his name. Dang, man...
Ali was tough wasn't gonna back down from Anyone ! From 1963/ 67 Nobody I mean Nobody in the History of Boxing would have beaten him .The Man was simply Amazing. If you disrespected Him once He changed his Name he'd beat the Shitt out of You!

Ali talked a lot of trash all of his career!:but he did back it up!! He angered a lot of people though.
Ali was from the racist deep south of Louisville Kentucky those were tough times for black people...I should know.
Muhammad Ali from the 60s was the best fighter of all time,. U couldn't touch him. None of his fights from the 60s were dull to look at, always a thrilling moment. His foot speed, hand speed, head movement and his famous Ali shuffle were unchallenged.
That's not true. In 1963 Henry Cooper 'touched him' quite a bit. Not known for foot or hand speed, Cooper landed numerous left hooks and nearly KO'D Ali. When Ali tried to avoid punches by pulling his head back, that didn't work very well either. Cooper must have landed 10 good shots to Ali's head as he tried to avoid those shots with head movement but without trying to block them.
The fight before that, also in 1963, Doug Jones was landing plenty of hard shots on Ali, nearly knocked him down in the 1st round. It was at a time in which Ali tried to back-pedal and use head movement to avoid being hit, but it didn't work consistently against Jones either.
So why did it seem to work so well against Liston, a fighter better than either Cooper or Jones by a wide margin? The answer is simple; the fight was fixed, Liston was doing his best to avoid hitting Ali.
Mr.Marco...winning a World Title does something to a mediocre fighter...those fights were before he became World Champion....He was Unbeatableand Untouchable when he became Champion of the World!!!
@@hemadayal7815 The 2 fights I mentioned were just prior to the fight with Liston. Only some months had passed until he fought Liston. There was no dramatic improvement for Ali during the months between fights.
The upset win by Ali was so unlikely that many felt the need to explain how Liston could have lost. All of the reasons given in the decades since are bullshit. #1- Liston's shoulder injury was a lie. #2- Liston didn't train hard because he thought Ali would be easy. This is false as well. #3-Liston was out late the night before and he got drunk. Everyone in boxing at the time knew that Liston took every fight very seriously. He trained hard for each fight, there were no exceptions. #4- Liston feared Ali because he thought that Ali was crazy. Another lie. Liston got into a fight with a cop, he took the cops gun away from him, then put the cop head-first into a garbage dumpster. If Liston did this to an armed cop, why would he fear a frail young kid such as Ali? #5- Liston might have been as much as 45 years old when they fought in Miami. This is a baseless fallacy. Sonny looked like a full grown man at 15, he always had the look of a man 10 years older than he was.
There was an issue regarding the month that Sonny was born, his mother told 2 different reporters that Sonny was born in 1932. One reporter claimed that she said he was born in January of 1932, the other said she told him he was born in May of 1932. These dates only change his age by a few months, or by nothing at all. At first there was no controversy but eventually people felt the need to explain how the upset could have taken place. Some went so far as to claim he may have been in his late 40's or early 50's for the Miami fight. Sonny was not in his late 40's that night, he was 31.
Sonny was the last of 25 children in his family. With that many children it would be nearly impossible to be wrong about his age by more than a few months., The reason is that each child knew which siblings were older and which were younger. Sonny went to school along with siblings that were a year or two older than he was. His age therefore would have to fit the age of his closest siblings.
The answer to this life-long mystery surrounding the first fight between Ali and Liston is quite simple. No excuses are necessary to explain how it happened. I need only the truth, and the truth is that both fights between these 2 men were fixed. The fight was fixed, it's as simple as that.
began exaggerating. Some went so far as to claim he may have been in his late 40's or early 50's for the Miami fight. Sonn
@@hemadayal7815You Got That Right 👍.... "( And If The Referee Had Called All Those 🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰 Rabbit Punches From Terrell He Wouldn't Have Lasted That Long)"????
@@MrMarco855That’s nonsense! Liston hadn’t trained much for the title fight with Cassius Clay in 1964, he assumed he’d crush Clay in a couple of rounds. So did everyone else who watched that fight. Clay was a 7-1 underdog. Liston hadn’t fought more than two rounds in the previous two years, having destroyed Patterson twice in a single round. Liston juiced his gloves after the fourth round and Clay was blinded in round 5, and Liston still couldn’t knock him out. By the 7th round, Liston was clearly exhausted, his shoulder was injured before the fight and he quit on his stool despite his cornermen screaming at him to get up and fight. There’s no evidence that Liston threw that fight. None at all. It’s a silly notion. Clay was just a much better fighter. Much too quick for Liston.
Alis heart was enormous nobody would beat this guy at HW when he was in shape and prime. A very smart boxer not just fast.
Why are there people giving thumbs down to a great upload of a classic Ali fight??? Morons. Thanks to uploader. Thumbs up.
👎👎👎👎👎
I agree, great fight by the GREATEST!!
It never ceases to amaze me how these guys could fight for 15 straight rounds back then...
Most fighters today can barely make it 12. And as a testament to Ali's physical prowess, he comes out in round 15 looking like it's the first--bouncing and weaving from side to side. This may not be Ali's greatest fight but if there's anything to take away from it, it's the incredibly superior conditioning that Ali had achieved.
Interesting how you did not name any heavyweights on your list of fighters. There is a reason boxing matches do not last 15 rounds any more. Think about that. If you have been watching boxing for over 30 years, like I have, you see the obvious degradation of virtually every fighter in the later rounds--especially heavyweights. There is a big difference between "lasting" 12 rounds in a sweaty hug-fest and bouncing on your toes, bobbing and weaving like Ali. But don't take my word for it, just read what any boxing writer has to say about it. No nostalgia...just basic common sense biology.
This is considered one of Ali's Greatest Fights, it not his BEST FIGHT.
primovid A lot of it is also due to the ref's lack of judgement or when they're paid to let a lot of boxers, who aren't liked by the decision makers, get seriously hurt. This why I think Ali would've been in much better condition if he retired at least a little earlier. You see in his last fight against Holmes where even Holmes wants to stop the fight cuz he thinks it's too much but the ref doesn't stop it
Yeah, its one of the things about the younger Ali that is apparent. He could go 15 rounds and not tire. Later in the 1970s, he didn't have that type of endurance.
awe. Not a mark on his face.

EZ Q you try to do it
@@ezq6664ET was 39-4 not a bad record. Don't try and diminish a champion's greatness.
Ernie Terrell was just about the dirtiest fighter I ever saw. I saw him hit an opponent so low that his glove entered the other guys trunks from below. He got stuck with his fist wrapped up in the other guy's shorts. The referee had to untangle them.
This was amazing when you consider how tall Terrell was.
I saw him hit a guy so low his fist came up thru the guys socks.
I attended this fight in person at the Astrodome, and Ali completely dominated Ernie Terrell. Seeing it again here on UA-cam further confirmed how lopsided it was. Ernie fought defensively throughout and was very awkward to fight. As I recall Ernie fought only one time after he sustained this beating, and I believe he lost that next fight and retired. If I am wrong about that I stand corrected.
Lucky guy to be at that fight!
Yeah you are wrong...Ernie was back six months later being decisioned by Thad Spencer and then Manual Ramos two months after that.
Ernie fought on six more years, winning his next seven fights and losing his last two.
Ernie's career of 46 wins and 9 losses spanned 16 years.
If in doubt use Wikipedia....in seconds you'll know what you need to know.
Vasantha Perera I had no idea Ernie fought that many more fights and for that many years after the Ali fight. I stand corrected. It appears you are also a big fan of Ernie's. He certainly comes across as a very nice man. I don't believe he was the same fighter after the Ali fight. I believe it took a lot out of him.
jp3923
I'm actually not a fan at all and didn't like his style of fighting in the Ali fight....rabbit and kidney punching whilst holding. Chuvalo employed similar tactics with Ali and Patterson, but when Ernie and George fought each other they boxed more conventionally and the fight was pretty clean......Ali's and Floyd's speed were such strong factors that that seemed the only way to get any punches into them.
Like I said, just type Wikipedia into google and from there you can see most well known boxer's bio's and match records....for the less famous ones and the most comprehensive guide to all their weights for each bout and the record of almost any boxer who ever stepped into the ring go to boxingrec.
Vasantha Perera Thank you, Vasantha. I really appreciate your informed comments and recommendation. I will do so. PS: You mentioned Floyd Patterson. I saw him fight Roy Harris. He was a favorite. He was very skilled and an extraordinary individual. I wish he had stayed in the light heavyweight division, but the money wasn't there. I don't believe anyone in that division would have ever defeated him. His chin would have stood up in that classification. He was an extraordinary person. I was saddened when he passed away. He was beacon in a sport that sometimes is quite shady.
Interesting! Thanks for your input. If you get a chance, check out a 2009 documentary called "Facing Ali". it has insight from most of Ali's opponents like terrell, chuvalo, foreman, cooper, holmes, shavers, even spinks. not only do they touch upon their fights with ali, you also get a little backstory about the fighters themselves. for example, terrell was supposed to fight ali after liston vs ali 1, but had to back out because his mob-tied manager got his butt beat up and put into a hospital.
At his peak Ali had reflexes that were unreal. The way he slips punches (while leaning back!) with such ease just amazes me. It's like he had built in radar. what he did in the 70s with diminished skills is what enhanced his legend but in the 60s he was absolutely unbeatable.
absolutely!!!!
in his autobiography he said when he was a youngin he would stand against a wall and dodge stones thrown by friends..

Ernie Terrell must of hit the back of his head like 100 times
on purpose too! smh
Yeah, I have seen a few Ali fights as a small child. Ali often got hit in the back of the head by his opponents mostly because Ali knew how to tie up when fighters got to close and as a results, his opponents would just swing for the back of his head hoping to hit anything. But, did you noticed something watching Ali clench? What other sport teach their fighters to do this technique that Ali is applying? Take a wild guest.
Not a single warning of point deduction either. So enjoyable to watch Terell, even years later whine and moan about his whipping.
where is the part where ali say "whats my name? say my name?!" can u pls give me the time
Flavio KS All through the eighth round and especially at the end of the eighth round where you clearly hear him as the bell rings say to Terrell, “What’s my name?”.
Round 8 starts at 30:56. In the beginning of the round as Ali comes off his stool he yells to Terrell "You're going to say my name!", it sounds muffled because of the mouthpiece but you hear him saying it to Terrell.
Around 30:59 Ali feints Terrell with a jab and Terrell flinches, Ali then throws a hook as Terrell leans in, The hook lands on the wrist of Terrell knocking down Terrell's guard allowing Ali to follow with a hard quick jab to the face, Just before Ali throws the hard quick jab, Ali says "Say my name". As soon as that punch lands, Ali grumbly yells what's my name almost in a frustrated tone. From that point, up until 32:40, Ali toys with Terrell even allowing Terrell to rally a little without any real damage to Ali.
At 32:40 Ali yells, "Say my name" then proceeds to jab through Terrell' guard. At this point, it seems Ali is ready to punish Terrell again based on the fury of the next few punches that Ali throws a hard left followed by a right over the top and a left uppercut underneath as Terrell gets knocked sideways from the right hand straight into the left uppercut. Furious, Ali drops his hands and you can clearly hear him say, Say my name!!! After that Ali just starts welling on poor Terrell and keeps on yelling to him to say my name.
Once in a clinch, he holds Terrell by the neck and leans into his hear and yells to him to say his name. At one point in the round towards the end, former Heavyweight Champion Great Joe Louis says, Clay is talking to Terrell to that replied George Chuvalo, a contender at the time saying, “he asking him what my name is” (this takes place from 33:04 - 33;09).
Howard Cossell, the play by play great says that Ali said (previously in an interview with Ali, Terrell and Cossell) he was going to humiliate him. Howard goes on to say, I hardly think it’s necessary and asked if Joe agrees with it. Joe chuckles and says that he doesn’t know about that and says but he thinks Clay can do whatever he wants to do in that ring. All the while Ali is punishing Terrell and yelling at him to say his name and asking him what’s his name.
In the last few seconds of the last round, Ali keeps hitting Terrell, who trying his best to defend himself but to no avail. Ali is yelling at him, “What’s my name, huhn?” Ali says it like three times at the end of the round even dropping his hands as the bell sounds and you can clearly hear Ali repeatedly say or ask Terrell, “What’s my name, huhn?” Joe Louis repeats the drama as Ali sits on his stool at the end of the round and Howard Cossell goes on to explain to the viewers, that “The What’s My Name diatribe was started as a question by Ali to Terrell when Terrell kept calling Ali by his birth name “Clay” in a recent interview between Cosell and the fighters.
Ali had just converted to Islam and had joined the Nation of Islam and had his name changed from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali. In this interview, Ali became angry with Terrell for refusing to call him Ali and choosing instead to call him what his momma called him when she gave birth to him, "Clay".
After the eighth round, Ali continues to taught him. In round 9 Ali gets off his stool to start the round still talking trash. He tells Terrell he can hit him anytime and that he Terrell can’t hit him. Ali demonstrates this by “riding Terrell’s punches as Terrell futilely misses a few jabs follow by a left to which Ali casually rides the punches.
At this point, Cossell is asking Louis is Ali carrying Terrell at this point in the fight implying that Ali could knock him out at anytime but was letting Terrell stay in the fight (so that it would look like Terrell was competitive). Louis responds that Ali could knock him out by making reference to Floyd Patterson fight who Ali knocked out the fight before in the 6th round. Since Ali wasn’t looking like he was trying to knock out Terrell, Louis suggest that he was carrying Terrell. George Chauvalo chimes in he thinks so too but suggest that Ali was trying to humiliate Terrell and that was the reason why Ali was carrying him. (Side note; Ali wanted to severely punish Terrell and some believed that Ali didn’t want to knock him out but just wanted to punish him every round. However after the fight in an interview with Cossell, Ali said that he couldn’t knock Terrell out).
Anyways, from round 9 on, Ali continues to taunt and punishTerrell. In round 9, he tells him he is going to make him retire. He tells him to look at his eyes. At the beginning of round 10, Ali comes off the stool and points to his face mocking Terrell about how ugly his face looks while Ali’s looks pretty (untouched). Anyways, I gave you enough now go watch the fight for yourself and listen.
One of the few fights Ali seemed to really want to do damage. Usually he showed compassion, even against Foreman. That said, his speed and reflexes were masterful. He should have blocked the rabbit punches since the ref was allowing them, but aside from that, he easily negated Terrell's jab and kept him in a shell while disfiguring his face.
The greatness of Mohammed Ali was not in how he boxed only , but in how good hearted and giving this man was in all aspects.
that Ref should have been fired right after the fight.
Yeah, too many low blows. What a shmuck.

howard cowsel " he just told the champ terrells face looks like a hamburger " hahahahaha
الله يرحمه ويغفرله
Damn Ali stamina is unlimited
Best back of the head puncher I've ever seen. Guy fights so dirty.
"how do you score this round George?"...."I score this round: 2...the amount of times Ali beat me....."
R.I.P Ernie.
Ali's coordination is sheer beauty.
@33:02....Joe Louis: "CLAY'S talking to Terrell"....George Chuvalo: "he's asking what his name is?"...hahahaha EPIC!!
