George Foreman vs Muhammad Ali

George Foreman defends the Heavyweight Championship of the World for the third time against former Champion, Muhammad Ali. Ali at 32, had been given little change against the fearsome puncher who had knocked out both Frazier and Norton, whom both had beaten ali in the past, in 2 rounds. The fight took place in Kinshasa, Zaïre (todays Congo), and was put together by promotor Don King. This is considered by many as the most significent fight of Muhammad Alis career. The fight was called Fight of the Year for 1974.

Their records at the time
George Foreman: 40-0
Muhammad Ali: 44-2

  1. a whole match hung on his shoulders like a sujuk the other time on the ropes like wet laundry and finally rested he took him down, a good strategy if you fight against Foreman

  2. まさかアリが勝つとは誰も思わなかった。だが誰もがアリに勝って欲しいと思った。そして本当に勝ったのだから、その時世界中に与えた衝撃は凄かった。
    フォアマンにしてみれば、何故自分が負けたのか理解出来なかっただろう。まさに神憑り的な試合であり、現代版復活の日だった。

  3. Der beste aller Zeiten, der gott aller Götter.
    Niemals werde ich fur die Bleichgesichter in Vietnam gegen das Vietnamesische volk kämpfen.
    Sie habenir nichts getan ، im Gegensatz zu hier wo ich nicht im Restaurant mit den weißen essen darf .

  4. حبيبي محمد علي الله يرحمه هوه قل وررا العالم العربي الملاكمه وحببهم فيها وبسببه دخل ناس كتير في الاسلام حبيبي

  5. Questo incontro è molto strano poco chiaro cioè Foreman senza essere mai stato colpito due rounds prima di cadere già non si reggeva in piedi è molto strano bisognerebbe indagare perché per me non è regolare in più Foreman in più di un intervista ha detto che prima dell incontro aveva chiesto ai suoi secondi da bere acqua e dopo alcuni secondi aver bevuto quando si alzò dalla sedia lui disse che non si sentì più le gambe e di essere stato drogato l incontro è strano è da indagare perché ci potrebbero essere state delle irregolarità indagate perché non mi convince questo incontro grazie dall' Italia

  6. Questo incontro è molto strano indagate perché può essere stato irregolare tranquillamente al 6 round Goran Foreman senza essere mai stato colpito già non si regge all impiedi questo incontro è poco chiaro molto probabile irregolare indagate perché c è sotto qualcosa di losco che è avvenuto Foreman ha sempre sostenuto di essere stato drogato ed è probabilissimo che sia andata così indagate fate chiarezza su questo incontro grazie

  7. Greatest durability greatest chopping of a man’s soul hit by hit… he’s too pretty he’s too fast he’s too much being the greatest! 😂

  8. I have been watching this phenomenon ever since Cassius Clay beat Sonny Liston in the early sixties. For me he was, and still is the greatest fighter that ever lived. Then to top it off he also became a great statesman for his people. A true hero.Very few people, if any, can compare to this legend. RIP, Mohammed Ali/Cassius Clay.

  9. With the mouth that bastard had he should've been a preacher instead of a boxer !! If his ass had been as big as his mouth he would've been a walking hemorrhoid !!!

  10. La única razón por la cual ali no murió ese dia fue su juego de pies, cada que veo esta pelea me don cuenta que cuando ali esquivaba a Foreman lo hacía agachándose o dando un paso atrás, cuando esquivaba con la cabeza era contra loas cuerdas ese dia era rip Mohamed ali

  11. Everytime I watch one of these vintage bout. I still don't understand why people say this boxer from 50 years ago could beat any modern champion. Like even on heavyweight standard forman looks so slow, and Ali doesn't look like he'd fairwell against modern giant heavyweights.

  12. No doubt Foreman was great boxer but Ali used his brain and power to win this fight. ALI had physical and mental intelligence which other boxers of his time lacked.

  13. Recognize your strength and strategy… not cuz allah gave it ….Allah consider boxing sins lol supposed to bomb , kill infidels….

  14. Yo solo beo pelea susia de ali, todo el tiempo agarrando metiendose a sas cuerdas nada mas contragolpeando no es de un grande, a lo contrario de george foreman todo el tiempo yendo para delante luchando como un gerrero, solo veo un solo grande
