The Day in History, Muhammad Ali saves suicidal man

What would you say if Muhammad Ali himself said Robinson is greater than him? But yeah gauntlet is a perfect way to describe it. i'd ask him where he's hiding all of the footage he's seen of robinson in his prime :lol1: . there is very little film of robinson at welterweight. at the least, if it exists, people are sitting on it, or it's in a sock drawer somewhere. we have high quality film, even HD quality film, of ali throughout his career. heck, we even have him as an olympian. much of the film that was used to capture robinson early in his career, i'm led to believe, was made of a material that doesn't stand up as well over time. greb's footage was similarly hard to find for the same reason. i've scoured the internet for lots of robinson WW footage, and you really only get bits of rounds here and there. havent' checked in a while, but there was never a whole lot of prime footage to choose from when i did. anybody who has found more can post it here if they'd like. it would be appreciated.

and i'm starting to question even that. i don't have enough prime footage of robinson to back up what people tell me abot him. i can see ali move around like a lightweight in the 60's. the man's resume and ability were absolutely f#cking staggering. fighters are never going to go through a gauntlet liek that again. and they shouldn't. This 100%. We don't really know how good SRR really was.

Only SRR is greater in my opinion. and i'm starting to question even that. i don't have enough prime footage of robinson to back up what people tell me abot him. i can see ali move around like a lightweight in the 60's. the man's resume and ability were absolutely f#cking staggering. fighters are never going to go through a gauntlet liek that again. and they shouldn't.

Crazy overrated in what ways? There's absolutely no denying that he did more things than any other heavyweight in history has done. indeed it seems some want to go against the man for the sake of going against him

R.I.P Goat.

Great video. I've read about that story before, but never seen the video. Shows you the kind of man Ali was.

Cool ****. I'm consistently arguing against Ali in a multitude of topics cuz I think he's crazy overrated in many ways, but there is no debate he was an exceptional human being. F#cked up day for boxing & boxing fans even doe Ali hasn't really been in the boxing world in any real way for decades. RIP Ali. Crazy overrated in what ways? There's absolutely no denying that he did more things than any other heavyweight in history has done.

how you gon say no to Ali?

Wow, that was amazing. I'm literally speechless after watching that.
