i like the way Jerry Quarry fights. He just ran out of breath at the end. I realize Muhammed Ali strategy is he dance around for 2 rounds to let his opponents do all the swinging to tire themselves out and then by the 3rd round he takes advantage
@@garthdrake3220 There was a load off boxers like, they go for the gut and not the head, kill the gut and the head drops, Joe Frazier was one of the best and that's how he beat Ali in the ring, Ali did not and could not cope with these type of boxers, that's why the dirty trick of resting on their neck and put pressure down, that is why Ali was lifted into the air at first, that showed the ref what he was doing, Ref did nothing about the Illegal move which is a point deducted from Ali if the ref had step in to stop Ali illegal move. Ali had a bad habit of doing that to tired out his opponents
He was the greatest world Heavyweight boxer who ever lived!!, in my humble opinion!!, AND who did Quarry think he was!!? It was a boxing match NOT A BLOODY wrestling match!! AND he had about as much chance!!, of picking Ali up, and throwing him out of the ring!!, than I'd have had!!

Ali was so far beyond merely boxing, Hollywood good looks, comedic genius, humanitarian, adaptable to any situation, gazelle-like speed and accuracy, and he could take your out. But, oh, that foot and hand speed, one in a billion. Personality, never seen before or after. He is the Original He is the Greatest.
@@davidhubbard6963 You have to read what my post says. It says “ Hollywood good looks.” That means that he was handsome enough to be a leading man in a Hollywood.
Well that’s not true. He was a garbage human being throughout most of his youth. That’s not to say that he is irredeemable or hasn’t redeemed himself. I just think “greatest” is limited to his craft in the ring. Outside of the ring he wasn’t exceptional. He wasn’t even decent.
Spot on you too!!🙂 I could, and often do just watch the old Ali fights over and over!! No ones ever said it too me, and I've NEVER read it either, but!! Watching Ali in the ring boxing who ever his opponent might have been, was a beautiful thing too watch my friend!! What I meant by a 'saying' is..Ali reminds me of Elvis!! He could just move in a way that NO ONE else in his field could do, in my humble opinion YOU too!!😊 the God given natural rhythm they both did and energised on their own 'Stages' was beyond belief!! With Elvis Presley, I've always thought that he must've been double jointed to gyrate in the way he did!! He could go from bolt upright, to twist and gyrate until both of his knees were on the stage floor!! AND, in my humble opinion, it was as if he was born with a microphone stand or, just a microphone in his hand or hands!! I DO KNOW if I tried to use a microphone stand like Elvis did, it'd end up In the Audience!! Or behind or, to the side of the stage!! AND!! No one ever taught him how to do it to the best of my knowledge either My friend!! Because he just had, a God given talent that knew no bounds the way I see or, seen it my friend!! Same as Ali!! I watched him in the interview live with Frazier before the Thriller in Manilla!! AND, even tho Ali was actually taller than Joe, he didn't look or seem to be when they were sitting side by side!! They got into a scuffle, and my cousin was a stage hand, he told me out of the view of the cameras, Ali was just deflecting Joe's 7 or 8 Punches he threw!! AND!! Ali had Joe by the throat when they were separated!!😮 I said I don't really know if I can follow u cousin Brian!!🤔 he said, as I told when I rang u the next day Pete, It was soooo obvious that Ali was just too fast for Joe!!! AND, as Brian and 3 other stage hands walked out with Ali, He said .It might take me 14 or the full 15 Rounds with him to beat him Brian!! But!! I'll definitely close his right eye and I'll close his left eye too!! Unless I run 0ut of time!! AND!! Ifff I'm right about that, even though we'll both be exhausted!! I'll close his left eye with my right straight drive!! AND!! It might take me 4 or more punches too close his left eye, But!! Close it I will!! Unless of course I run out of time guys!! So? When the 14th was Over, I knew what Ali had told Brian, was eeerily Prophetic folks!! Because at the end of the 13th and the 14th, poor old Joe was walking to the wrong corner, Until his trainer or an assistant cornerman, led him back too his own and correct corner!! AND even tho we can speculate all we want too, and try to imagine what d v happened ifff Joe's team hadn't v thrown the towel in, and both men we're exhausted as Ali predicted!!?? In my humble opinion Ali d v had just enough energy left to have completely closed Joe's left eye, and if that was the case, the Ref d v stopped the fight anyway!! Which is just common sense!! AND...after Ali ko'd Foreman, he said 'His hands can't hit what he's eye's can't see!!' AND the exact same thing d v happened Ifff, they DID fight the 15th vs Frazier!! Both of them nearly killed one another!! AND!! Joe spent over a month in the ICU after that fight, whereas Ali did a tv interview 6 days after the fight!! He did have a tiny bit of swelling on both cheeks, and GOD only knows he's have still been very sore and bruised!! AND!! He had the good grace to wish Joe all the very best in his next $400.0.00 fight!! The interviewer said it's only a $400 thousand dollar fight Ali!! Ali replied...YEAH!! WELL SOMEONE THINKS ENOUGH OF JOE TO PUT $400.000 Of his own money up too see it go ahead doesn't he!!??😡 Hence Ali defended Joe, and he said he's got a big family to feed!!!and I wish him all the very best!! Lastly, 1 thing I took out of the Thriller, is u should be careful what u pray for at xs!! Because, just before the fight, Joe prayed to God to give him the strength to kill Ali!! But, it didn't work!! and even though I'm not an overly religious person, I don't think God wants us to kill 1 another my friend!! As I began with, Ali was the greatest heavyweight champion boxer I've ever seen!! Poetry in motion!! God given graceful boxing ability beyond belief!! AND I hope Both Ali and Frazier rest in peace!! All the best to u and Your loved ones my friend, kind regards Pete.
ALI could knocked him down brutally but he called referee to stop the fight as Quarry seemed hurt, this is the humbleness of The Greatest of the Brutal Game. ALI is the All Time Greatest.
@@peterherrington3300 Usyk is 6’3 220, Ruiz is 6’3. Although I agree Tyson, Joshua, Wilder are bigger. Ali would be just fine at his size in the current division.
From a young boy who had his pride and joy stolen, his first pedal cycle, to becoming the champion of the world, is no mean feat ! Surely a one off human being, with a gift from god.
There never was and never will be a superhuman like Muhammad Ali. Inside the ring and outside it, Ali could outdo anybody. His wisdom, intellect, wit, and, looks were unmatched. I am a person with an educational qualification right up to the level of a PhD, but I feel dwarfed by everything that Ali did and stood for. Yes, Ali, we are very very happy to be at the same time with you. We learnt, we laughed, and we felt fully content with what you offered us. May you be blessed with peace and happiness.
Massive respect for a legend,the greatest heavyweight boxer ever a true people’s champion and showman just see what he does at end of clip calling over the referee saying the other guys had enough of my beating shows Ali great personality if he wanted he could have easily put the guy on floor and dance around him but good nature shone through rest in peace Champ always loved him
Without a doubt the greatest of all time! Will never be another fighter like him, hand speed, foot work and an iron chin unlike no other! And the only fighter that could let his opponents hit him! My all time favorite athlete period!
Oh good load.. Mohammad Ali.. The greatest ever.. He had style and showmanship in everything he did even when he spoke.. Gave the sport such huge rich history and value.
And a rampant racist dont forget a Michael parkinson interviews , his distain for white people was evident .....blacks should stay with blacks , his words ....No place for diversity in his mind
I heard somewhere that after this bout ended, Quarry stated that he wanted to fight Ali again for a third time. When Ali heard that, he just shook his head and said, "When is that boy ever gonna learn?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 Why watch Ali clips? He sucked in your opinion. Most people including boxers would disagree, and they know more than you or I, right?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 Hi there Doc. I respect you're opinions. Boxing is a Very Subjective sport,much like Baseball. I've been a Gigantic fan of both sports since I was 9,in 1979. What is you're take on Roberto Duran ? He was one of my favorites. Roberto Duran,Danny Lopez,Ray Mancini,Tommy Hearns,Roy Jones Jr,Lennox Lewis,Both Klischko bros.,and plenty of the modern Stars as well,even though I'm Very Disappointed about the Whole Bs Laymo New Age Boxing Trend of basically having 1 bout per year. I just wanna go Mickey Goldberg from the Rocky flix on So Many of these Pampered Pooches of modern Boxing.
Oh the dancing movement shows how much energy young Ali has in him, so amazing to watch and will forever be the greatest. He’s just simply blessed with a complete package boxing ever needed to work. Long Live the King.
They like Ali's style w/c make him adorable to fans. He entertained them by dancing around but when he engaged he hit bigshot exactly to the opponent head. No one can do that.
Jerry wasn't the greatest of opponents and often got terrible cuts, but he had heart and was always a good fighter to watch in a bout. Ali knew Quarry was a wise veteran of the ring, could be dangerous at any time and no easy pushover. You can bet Ali trained well for this fight. I loved watching all their bouts.
@stevecvino what do you mean ali was superior than frazier and he was 3 years without fighting before facin frazier, but i give frazier lot of credits, ali had frazier in mental pain, you could see how the trash talk hurt frazier during the interviews
@@stevecvino he was far superior too joe,joe too his credit got a result but only just , Ali had been out for 3 1/2 years and had just 2 fights in 6 weeks prior to the Frazier fight ,they should have taken more fights and more time ,no way could joe have beaten a fully active Ali or taken the time off that Ali did and come back like he did against the deepest pool of hw talent ever .
How that referee stood there while Ali had that long piece of tape flailing from his glove and didn’t pause the round is far beyond me. Anyway, it looked like Ali was fighting a 13 year-old in that ring. Beat Quarry like he stole something.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 you’re funny man, you sound like an angry person, I’m not rating Foreman in anyway other that what your comment referred to. So I guess you wouldn’t class him as a ‘power puncher’? Whereas general opinion is he certainly was. Ali took plenty of heavy shots throughout his career unless you think nobody could really punch until the ones you mention?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 I’m not arguing with you, I just find it strange that you think Ali would have struggled with those you mentioned as power punchers. As for seeming like you’re angry (or a hater) you used all capitals to state ‘THE 70s WAS SO OVERRATED. IT’S PATHETIC’ ….seemed like you’re angry about a whole decade to me. Relax Doc….maybe vent on a heavy bag?
@@steve5825 Steve, don't waste your time with that idiot. Ali is one of world's most revered athletes, and he's just a sad loser and hater who can't stand it.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 doc you need a doc. I’m not in denial. You want to compare big sluggers with a guy who could move like no other heavy (or whatever you want to class them as) weight. That’s fine. You are right I bow down to your faultless opinion and shall go and sit in the naughty corner for having a contrary one. Too bad the world was full of bum boxers in the 70’s and all we had was a guy who was a punch bag as a champion. Get outside and get some fresh air and try to relax a bit.
Ali still had his hand speed after the three year layoff, but there was erosion in his defense. Quarry was able to tag Ali as he was retreating (something that never happened before the layoff). This would come to haunt Ali in fights vs. Bonavena, Frazier, Norton, etc.
The level of skill you must have to dance and play in the ring is astonishing, but the will to win that Muhammad Ali had to win his fights probably can never be matched.
Man, Ali didn't want to hurt him no more. What a great man. Quarry had his head down most of the fight. *Your hands can't hit what you're eyes can't see* RIP GOAT 🥊⚡
You watch today's so called Heavyweights and compare that with this ring genius, there is absolutely no comparison...he had everything, Chin, speed, adaptability, and a heart of a lion...the true legend of boxing....they all copied him but he was the real article..
Tyson is extremely fast for a 270 pounder. And has incredible head movement. Although I don’t think Tyson beats Ali at all but he does deserve a comparison.
@@rockii_music Fury's main assets are height and durability and a pretty decent chin. It would have been a great match up with Lennox Lewis...But lewis would have taken him inside 5 rounds...Lewis had everything, height, power, durabilty and he had a great left right combination that usually took out his opponents.
This is the most disrespectful ass beating I’ve ever seen in a Heavyweight boxing match. LMAO. 😂😂😂 Talk about outclassed. Ali stopped the fight for dude like he was bored and showing mercy. 😂😂😂
This was the least disrespectful ive seen ali act tbh, I guess he was focused on getting ready for frazier. Look up his fight vs dokes, that one was just a pure clowning
He probably never had a chance against Ali, but in the previous fight his brother Mike got brutally knocked out by Bob Foster which might have affected his performance.
@@lendrury2771 A friend of mine’s dad was one of his drinking buddies. All that drinking made him heavier around the middle which made his overall movement in the ring much less efficient. If you look at videos of his earlier fights when he was just under 200 pounds it’s like looking at a different fighter. As he got heavier later in his career it was harder for him to avoid punches that usually never got near him when he fought at a lighter weight.
I did notice that myself quarry was in much better shape before. Here he looks old here. Quarry and Joe Frazier first fight was a short war. Buy in the second fight he didn't even look like the same guy
Quarry was all but done here. Look how he came out for the last round.....he was out on his feet without a single punch landed and Ali knew it and waved for the ref to step in. You could see his brain damage was slowing him down. At this point in his career, Quarry would take a punch and then just stand there for a split second in a daze. Then his mind would come back and he would fight again, that delay he was showing, was the start of his decline into losing his mind. Jerry was a small HW, but he could punch and take a punch, it was another boxer who paid for his success.
Not saying ali wasn't way better than quarry but some comment don't do jerry quarry any justice. Quarry had the fight of the year in 1969 against joe frazier, quarry lost on cuts but gave a great account of himself again thanks a prime joe frazier, 2 years later joe would famously beat ali. Quarry had an up and down career , his style didn't suit against the amazing ali. George foreman has said he never wanted to fight quarry.
Ali never trys to hurt no boxers. He did the same thing to another fighter he wave it off.. He's not trying to kill the guy.. He just want to win. He got great sportmanship, and he is the greatist of all times.... R.I.P. CHAMP.
Imagine power that necessary for hurting Ali really. Ali had intense conditioning also. Showed another world class hw like garbage man. Everytime I watch his fight, more I understand why he was the greatest.
"Dance like a butterfly, sting like a bee." Said Muhammad Ali and his most of the fights are replica of this formula. Never in the History of boxing, has any other fighter earned great name like Muhammad Ali.
This was one of the first fights alongside Zaire that really caught my attention to Ali. That must have been 40 years ago now😊But to be fair... Even though Ali made Quarry look like an amateur, Quarry certainly was no bum. Great guy and an amazing fighter. Can't figure out how Ali could make Quarry look like an amateur when he had a war with Frazier and other great fighters whom Ali struggled with? Styles make fights... 😊
Yea quarry knocked shavers out in like 2 rounds. Thing was quarry was no Frasier so he just was never going to win. He was no Joe bugner so he wasn't going to be competitive.
i like the way Jerry Quarry fights. He just ran out of breath at the end. I realize Muhammed Ali strategy is he dance around for 2 rounds to let his opponents do all the swinging to tire themselves out and then by the 3rd round he takes advantage
They knew how he fought but yet they fell into the trap.
I like the way he dealt with Ali dirty trick of putting weight down on the back of the neck.
@@southerneruk Negated by Quarry rushing in head first.
Quarry should have tried out for WWF or whatever WWE was called back then
@@garthdrake3220 There was a load off boxers like, they go for the gut and not the head, kill the gut and the head drops, Joe Frazier was one of the best and that's how he beat Ali in the ring, Ali did not and could not cope with these type of boxers, that's why the dirty trick of resting on their neck and put pressure down, that is why Ali was lifted into the air at first, that showed the ref what he was doing, Ref did nothing about the Illegal move which is a point deducted from Ali if the ref had step in to stop Ali illegal move.

Ali was so far beyond merely boxing, Hollywood good looks, comedic genius, humanitarian, adaptable to any situation, gazelle-like speed and accuracy, and he could take your out. But, oh, that foot and hand speed, one in a billion. Personality, never seen before or after. He is the Original He is the Greatest.
Tha' fuck Hollywood gotta do with "anything"?
@@davidhubbard6963
Part of his bullshit narrative.
Which is, after all, hollywood.
@@davidhubbard6963 usually in Hollywood you get the roles of your very attractive, that’s what I think he was getting at.
I agree 💯
@@davidhubbard6963 You have to read what my post says. It says “ Hollywood good looks.” That means that he was handsome enough to be a leading man in a Hollywood.
If Ali was not a boxer, he would still be the greatest for who he was, and what he stood for, a real gentleman. RIP Champ.
ALI was the LeBron James, King james, of boxing he stood up for something, just like LeBron stands up for the brothers and against the establishment
And he would be writing his grandchildren's name on a grain of rice while enjoying a nice hot bowl of soup.
Well that’s not true. He was a garbage human being throughout most of his youth. That’s not to say that he is irredeemable or hasn’t redeemed himself. I just think “greatest” is limited to his craft in the ring. Outside of the ring he wasn’t exceptional. He wasn’t even decent.
@@tomjohnson3010
True that.
If Ali not a boxer he will be the first black man on the moon
Ali's movements are a beautiful thing to watch. Not really even trying and still dominating Quarry.
Spot on you too!!🙂 I could, and often do just watch the old Ali fights over and over!! No ones ever said it too me, and I've NEVER read it either, but!! Watching Ali in the ring boxing who ever his opponent might have been, was a beautiful thing too watch my friend!! What I meant by a 'saying' is..Ali reminds me of Elvis!! He could just move in a way that NO ONE else in his field could do, in my humble opinion YOU too!!😊 the God given natural rhythm they both did and energised on their own 'Stages' was beyond belief!! With Elvis Presley, I've always thought that he must've been double jointed to gyrate in the way he did!! He could go from bolt upright, to twist and gyrate until both of his knees were on the stage floor!! AND, in my humble opinion, it was as if he was born with a microphone stand or, just a microphone in his hand or hands!! I DO KNOW if I tried to use a microphone stand like Elvis did, it'd end up In the Audience!! Or behind or, to the side of the stage!! AND!! No one ever taught him how to do it to the best of my knowledge either My friend!! Because he just had, a God given talent that knew no bounds the way I see or, seen it my friend!! Same as Ali!! I watched him in the interview live with Frazier before the Thriller in Manilla!! AND, even tho Ali was actually taller than Joe, he didn't look or seem to be when they were sitting side by side!! They got into a scuffle, and my cousin was a stage hand, he told me out of the view of the cameras, Ali was just deflecting Joe's 7 or 8 Punches he threw!! AND!! Ali had Joe by the throat when they were separated!!😮 I said I don't really know if I can follow u cousin Brian!!🤔 he said, as I told when I rang u the next day Pete, It was soooo obvious that Ali was just too fast for Joe!!! AND, as Brian and 3 other stage hands walked out with Ali, He said .It might take me 14 or the full 15 Rounds with him to beat him Brian!! But!! I'll definitely close his right eye and I'll close his left eye too!! Unless I run 0ut of time!! AND!! Ifff I'm right about that, even though we'll both be exhausted!! I'll close his left eye with my right straight drive!! AND!! It might take me 4 or more punches too close his left eye, But!! Close it I will!! Unless of course I run out of time guys!! So? When the 14th was Over, I knew what Ali had told Brian, was eeerily Prophetic folks!! Because at the end of the 13th and the 14th, poor old Joe was walking to the wrong corner,
Until his trainer or an assistant cornerman, led him back too his own and correct corner!! AND even tho we can speculate all we want too, and try to imagine what d v happened ifff Joe's team hadn't v thrown the towel in, and both men we're exhausted as Ali predicted!!?? In my humble opinion Ali d v had just enough energy left to have completely closed Joe's left eye, and if that was the case, the Ref d v stopped the fight anyway!! Which is just common sense!! AND...after Ali ko'd Foreman, he said 'His hands can't hit what he's eye's can't see!!' AND the exact same thing d v happened Ifff, they DID fight the 15th vs Frazier!! Both of them nearly killed one another!! AND!! Joe spent over a month in the ICU after that fight, whereas Ali did a tv interview 6 days after the fight!! He did have a tiny bit of swelling on both cheeks, and GOD only knows he's have still been very sore and bruised!! AND!! He had the good grace to wish Joe all the very best in his next $400.0.00 fight!! The interviewer said it's only a $400 thousand dollar fight Ali!! Ali replied...YEAH!! WELL SOMEONE THINKS ENOUGH OF JOE TO PUT $400.000 Of his own money up too see it go ahead doesn't he!!??😡 Hence Ali defended Joe, and he said he's got a big family to feed!!!and I wish him all the very best!! Lastly, 1 thing I took out of the Thriller, is u should be careful what u pray for at xs!! Because, just before the fight, Joe prayed to God to give him the strength to kill Ali!! But, it didn't work!! and even though I'm not an overly religious person, I don't think God wants us to kill 1 another my friend!! As I began with, Ali was the greatest heavyweight champion boxer I've ever seen!! Poetry in motion!! God given graceful boxing ability beyond belief!! AND I hope Both Ali and Frazier rest in peace!! All the best to u and Your loved ones my friend, kind regards Pete.
@@peterstorck5349 well said my friend!! Ali is my all-time favorite athlete!!
@@peterstorck5349 %
MISS HIM, HE MADE THE WORLD MORE FUN!! NOBODY COULD BEAT HIS PERSONALITY AND SPIRIT!
So true !❤️
Inside the ring he was great..outside? He was an honoury member of KKK ,believed in segregation and constantly cheated on his wife.
Yes is mouth was apart of his boxing
NOR, HIS BOXING ABILITY!!
ALI could knocked him down brutally but he called referee to stop the fight as Quarry seemed hurt, this is the humbleness of The Greatest of the Brutal Game. ALI is the All Time Greatest.
Yep Ali just wanted to win cleanly, not hurt anyone permanently
Corret , & that's why he is the Greatest of All Times .
@@ranenkarmakar4990 so unlike Sugar Ray Leonard who once he got you in trouble tried to kill you. And he had Muhammad as his idol none the less.
Never saw Ali punching opponents on abdomen while he received punches maximum on his abdomen area. Amazing boxer.
Facts 😂😂😂❗️
I think Ali was a dancer in his previous life! How can 200+ man have such spring in his movements? Incredible respect for this legend.
I could show you.
KING👑 of the RING
:Muhammad Ali..
The G.O.A.T
What a cool moment. He literally floats around the ring. Moving like a light weight. The 🐐
He was a lightweight compared to today's giants.
6 foot 3 & 15 stone would be dwarfed by fury , wilder & AJ
@@peterherrington3300 Usyk is 6’3 220, Ruiz is 6’3. Although I agree Tyson, Joshua, Wilder are bigger. Ali would be just fine at his size in the current division.
Ali so great he stopped the fight on his own...and the referee agreed 😂
Это точно. Тоже посмеялся
Quarry got mesmerized by the butterfly and stung by the bee, the GOAT Ali
From a young boy who had his pride and joy stolen, his first pedal cycle, to becoming the champion of the world, is no mean feat ! Surely a one off human being, with a gift from god.
Wow movement of Muhammad Ali like spring,really he fly like butterfly & sting like bee......❤️❤️❤️
There never was and never will be a superhuman like Muhammad Ali. Inside the ring and outside it, Ali could outdo anybody. His wisdom, intellect, wit, and, looks were unmatched. I am a person with an educational qualification right up to the level of a PhD, but I feel dwarfed by everything that Ali did and stood for. Yes, Ali, we are very very happy to be at the same time with you. We learnt, we laughed, and we felt fully content with what you offered us. May you be blessed with peace and happiness.
Massive respect for a legend,the greatest heavyweight boxer ever a true people’s champion and showman just see what he does at end of clip calling over the referee saying the other guys had enough of my beating shows Ali great personality if he wanted he could have easily put the guy on floor and dance around him but good nature shone through rest in peace Champ always loved him
The human side of Muhammad Ali never seizes to amaze me even when he’s in the ring
Without a doubt the greatest of all time! Will never be another fighter like him, hand speed, foot work and an iron chin unlike no other! And the only fighter that could let his opponents hit him! My all time favorite athlete period!
the fact that he actually lets them land a few hits LMAO
People forget he great a chin he had.
Oh good load.. Mohammad Ali.. The greatest ever.. He had style and showmanship in everything he did even when he spoke.. Gave the sport such huge rich history and value.
Muhammad Ali was more than a boxer. He succeeded thanks to Allah. May Allah have mercy on him
Ali has always given PRIORITY to Humanity first .All this makes Ali a Perfect Man with great character in the Ring .HE WAS JUST GENIUS 👍
And a rampant racist dont forget a Michael parkinson interviews , his distain for white people was evident .....blacks should stay with blacks , his words ....No place for diversity in his mind
Ali was pure class... His boxing IQ was just amazing.
I heard somewhere that after this bout ended, Quarry stated that he wanted to fight Ali again for a third time. When Ali heard that, he just shook his head and said, "When is that boy ever gonna learn?
It's all about the money.. I will fight anyone if I got pay more than $1million..
@@studentofsweetscience6922 Why watch Ali clips? He sucked in your opinion. Most people including boxers would disagree, and they know more than you or I, right?
@@jeffriessman9693 Don't waste your time with that special ed dropout, Jeff. He's just a moron.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 Hi there Doc. I respect you're opinions. Boxing is a Very Subjective sport,much like Baseball. I've been a Gigantic fan of both sports since I was 9,in 1979.

Roberto Duran,Danny Lopez,Ray Mancini,Tommy Hearns,Roy Jones Jr,Lennox Lewis,Both Klischko bros.,and plenty of the modern Stars as well,even though I'm Very Disappointed about the Whole Bs Laymo New Age Boxing Trend of basically having 1 bout per year.

Muhammad Ali wasn't just a GOAT ,but also the biggest ,best entertainer of all times. RIP champ!!!
The prettiest fighter of all time!
Ali was super fast smart and made boxing a big money sport RIP Champ👌
Ali's movement is superb. No wonder Bruce Lee studied him and watched many of Ali's fights.
Masterclass. Simple as that.
ALI is always LION OF THE RING 💖💖💖
01:25 Ali's dancing like a 🦋 ..
03:11 Ali's joking ...😆
i love Muhammad Ali,R.I.P man x
0:36 the real eye of the tiger by the real Apollo Creed.
Wow, True.
Oh the dancing movement shows how much energy young Ali has in him, so amazing to watch and will forever be the greatest. He’s just simply blessed with a complete package boxing ever needed to work. Long Live the King.
THERE WILL NEVER EVER BE ANOTHER SO SO GLAD I WAS AROUND WHEN HE WAS !!!!!!!!!!!!
Ali is just dancing on him, relaxing on the ropes, looking away with no worries...lol..lol.
Lmao!!..
اقسم بالله العظيم أسطورة لن تتكرر في عالم الملاكمة
Greatest of all time Mohammad Ali 🥊🥊
Alis dance is... a work of art.
This is suppose to boxing, running/dancing is called cheating.
@@daveoliver5838
And you're supposed to STFU if you don't know anything about boxing.
3:10 left hook and right from Quarry and Ali staggers! Lol
Watch from 2:47 Ali started playing with Quarry like a kid and asked him to hit hard at 3:10 Ali was mocking
How great you are, Muhammad, and I love you by God. I gave them lessons in the ring and lessons on the pulpit 💖💖
ALI always.
ALI anytime.
Muhammad Ali's definitely legendary 👊🏿🤛🏿🤜🏿💪🏿
Muhammad is greatest fighters of all time
They like Ali's style w/c make him adorable to fans. He entertained them by dancing around but when he engaged he hit bigshot exactly to the opponent head. No one can do that.
This was so one sided, Ali could have finished this in two rounds but out of respect to Jerry he took it easy
@Ricci Rogers love that, feeling upset are we, great
Ali never finished fighters quickly hardly!
@@jaxbeach5141 yes... Not much power
This was a good fight.Jerry hit hard , but Muhammad had those lighting hand.
Jerry wasn't the greatest of opponents and often got terrible cuts, but he had heart and was always a good fighter to watch in a bout. Ali knew Quarry was a wise veteran of the ring, could be dangerous at any time and no easy pushover.
You can bet Ali trained well for this fight. I loved watching all their bouts.
Amazing to witness the man's agility at that size. Seemed to move more like an NBA player than a heavyweight boxer!
It was an HONOR to get knocked out by Ali!
Allahu Akbar . He was the greatest. There will never ever be another Muhammad Ali.
Ali simply out classed him..
Miss u Muhammad Ali ✌👈 ALLAH PAK in k darjat bland farmay Ameen. From Pakistan big fan really miss you my hero 🙁🙁😭

ALI thy name is BOXING. None can replace it....🏆🏆🏆🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
muhammad ali you hare alway great is young is fast is mashallah eid mubarak muhammad ali champion 💚.
Look at his greatness. He's calling the referee instead of hurting the already-tired opponent taking the beating.
Quarry was good! But couldn't hold a 🕯️ to the elite skills of a Ali and Frazier!
Ali the greatest. ❤️💙💛💚💖
Ali was so far Superior than his opponents.
Except for Frazier.
@@stevecvino You're right.
@stevecvino what do you mean ali was superior than frazier and he was 3 years without fighting before facin frazier, but i give frazier lot of credits, ali had frazier in mental pain, you could see how the trash talk hurt frazier during the interviews
@@stevecvino he was far superior too joe,joe too his credit got a result but only just , Ali had been out for 3 1/2 years and had just 2 fights in 6 weeks prior to the Frazier fight ,they should have taken more fights and more time ,no way could joe have beaten a fully active Ali or taken the time off that Ali did and come back like he did against the deepest pool of hw talent ever .
@Sameer Abbaas Prime Mike couldn't even beat Old Holyfield.
Allah rahmet eylesin mekanı cennet olsun nur içinde yatsın ruhuna Fatiha ❤️🇹🇷 Muhammed Ali ❤️
Both these men suffered in their later years. Sad what the game did to them
Najbolji bokser kojeg su moje oči gledale, neka mu je laka zemlja i da uživa u rajskom vrtu.
How that referee stood there while Ali had that long piece of tape flailing from his glove and didn’t pause the round is far beyond me. Anyway, it looked like Ali was fighting a 13 year-old in that ring. Beat Quarry like he stole something.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 did you forget George Foreman or something?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 you’re funny man, you sound like an angry person, I’m not rating Foreman in anyway other that what your comment referred to. So I guess you wouldn’t class him as a ‘power puncher’? Whereas general opinion is he certainly was. Ali took plenty of heavy shots throughout his career unless you think nobody could really punch until the ones you mention?
@@studentofsweetscience6922 I’m not arguing with you, I just find it strange that you think Ali would have struggled with those you mentioned as power punchers. As for seeming like you’re angry (or a hater) you used all capitals to state ‘THE 70s WAS SO OVERRATED. IT’S PATHETIC’ ….seemed like you’re angry about a whole decade to me. Relax Doc….maybe vent on a heavy bag?
@@steve5825 Steve, don't waste your time with that idiot. Ali is one of world's most revered athletes, and he's just a sad loser and hater who can't stand it.
@@studentofsweetscience6922 doc you need a doc. I’m not in denial. You want to compare big sluggers with a guy who could move like no other heavy (or whatever you want to class them as) weight. That’s fine. You are right I bow down to your faultless opinion and shall go and sit in the naughty corner for having a contrary one. Too bad the world was full of bum boxers in the 70’s and all we had was a guy who was a punch bag as a champion.
Get outside and get some fresh air and try to relax a bit.
Jerry did the best impersonation of Ali I ever heard, including Billy Crystal. He had the champ down so well it made me laugh out loud! RIP
Quarry thought they play Sumo...
Ali just humiliated him.
Champion of the people with a kind heart not a single person would dislike him.
The best boxer of the world ever ❤
The Greatest for sure but not the best.... sugar Ray Robinson takes that prize
Mohammad ali is the best 🌹🌹🌹🌹 I love him...🌹🌹🌹
Ali still had his hand speed after the three year layoff, but there was erosion in his defense. Quarry was able to tag Ali as he was retreating (something that never happened before the layoff). This would come to haunt Ali in fights vs. Bonavena, Frazier, Norton, etc.
Muhammad Ali sir is my all time favorite and He is the greatest of all times also.....
Ali really Great person
Mohamed Ali the greatest ever ❤️ RIP
Muhammad Ali beat Everybody by using his brain.
The level of skill you must have to dance and play in the ring is astonishing, but the will to win that Muhammad Ali had to win his fights probably can never be matched.
Man, Ali didn't want to hurt him no more. What a great man. Quarry had his head down most of the fight. *Your hands can't hit what you're eyes can't see* RIP GOAT 🥊⚡
Ali is
"Nope,I'm done"
That's a true pro.
Highlights are as favorable to Quarry as you can get from this fight.
Super Fantastic Muhammad Ali. Brave and Brilliant Boxer
You watch today's so called Heavyweights and compare that with this ring genius, there is absolutely no comparison...he had everything, Chin, speed, adaptability, and a heart of a lion...the true legend of boxing....they all copied him but he was the real article..
Tyson is extremely fast for a 270 pounder. And has incredible head movement. Although I don’t think Tyson beats Ali at all but he does deserve a comparison.
@@rockii_music Fury's main assets are height and durability and a pretty decent chin. It would have been a great match up with Lennox Lewis...But lewis would have taken him inside 5 rounds...Lewis had everything, height, power, durabilty and he had a great left right combination that usually took out his opponents.
He withstood Earbie Shavers OHR .... He had an Adv. Of FW and Insane Stamina over him oppo
Muhammad Ali🔥
This is the most disrespectful ass beating I’ve ever seen in a Heavyweight boxing match. LMAO. 😂😂😂 Talk about outclassed. Ali stopped the fight for dude like he was bored and showing mercy. 😂😂😂
This was the least disrespectful ive seen ali act tbh, I guess he was focused on getting ready for frazier. Look up his fight vs dokes, that one was just a pure clowning
Ali was so Confident and Comfortable in the Ring.
Quarry was a good fighter who probably would have done really well in another era. But here, he's simply out of his league.
He probably never had a chance against Ali, but in the previous fight his brother Mike got brutally knocked out by Bob Foster which might have affected his performance.
@@davidbrandel1311 I read years ago that Quarry was heavily intoxicated in the ring ..he couldn't leave the hooch alone
@@lendrury2771 A friend of mine’s dad was one of his drinking buddies. All that drinking made him heavier around the middle which made his overall movement in the ring much less efficient. If you look at videos of his earlier fights when he was just under 200 pounds it’s like looking at a different fighter. As he got heavier later in his career it was harder for him to avoid punches that usually never got near him when he fought at a lighter weight.
He fought really well. Tough guy but Ali just trapped him and take out his gas tank. Ali the Goat
I did notice that myself quarry was in much better shape before. Here he looks old here. Quarry and Joe Frazier first fight was a short war. Buy in the second fight he didn't even look like the same guy
The Cat and the mouse, and, the Master and the Apprentice! It was that Simple.
Quarry was all but done here. Look how he came out for the last round.....he was out on his feet without a single punch landed and Ali knew it and waved for the ref to step in. You could see his brain damage was slowing him down. At this point in his career, Quarry would take a punch and then just stand there for a split second in a daze. Then his mind would come back and he would fight again, that delay he was showing, was the start of his decline into losing his mind. Jerry was a small HW, but he could punch and take a punch, it was another boxer who paid for his success.
Ali was in great shape..
Muhammad Ali the great May Allah reward him the best in jannah
Not saying ali wasn't way better than quarry but some comment don't do jerry quarry any justice. Quarry had the fight of the year in 1969 against joe frazier, quarry lost on cuts but gave a great account of himself again thanks a prime joe frazier, 2 years later joe would famously beat ali.
Quarry had an up and down career , his style didn't suit against the amazing ali.
George foreman has said he never wanted to fight quarry.
Ali never trys to hurt no boxers. He did the same thing to another fighter he wave it off.. He's not trying to kill the guy.. He just want to win. He got great sportmanship, and he is the greatist of all times.... R.I.P. CHAMP.
Imagine power that necessary for hurting Ali really. Ali had intense conditioning also. Showed another world class hw like garbage man. Everytime I watch his fight, more I understand why he was the greatest.

"Dance like a butterfly, sting like a bee." Said Muhammad Ali and his most of the fights are replica of this formula.
Never in the History of boxing, has any other fighter earned great name like Muhammad Ali.
Champions Muhammed ali
This was one of the first fights alongside Zaire that really caught my attention to Ali. That must have been 40 years ago now😊But to be fair... Even though Ali made Quarry look like an amateur, Quarry certainly was no bum. Great guy and an amazing fighter. Can't figure out how Ali could make Quarry look like an amateur when he had a war with Frazier and other great fighters whom Ali struggled with? Styles make fights... 😊
Try 50 years ...
Yea quarry knocked shavers out in like 2 rounds. Thing was quarry was no Frasier so he just was never going to win. He was no Joe bugner so he wasn't going to be competitive.
Display of a True sportsmanship 🫡
Look at the taunt 3:11
