Yes it was such a tough grueling fight that Ali knocked him out in 8 rounds.
Foreman came back in 1976. Ali fought Norton and Young that year. Norton went onto beat Larry Holmes according to some and Young went onto beat Foreman.
In 77 Ali fought Shavers and Evangelista both who went onto challenge Holmes. Foreman retired in 77.
Ali wanted a rematch with Frazier after FOTC. Instead Frazier defended his title against journeymen Terry daniels and Ron Strander. What did they do to deserve title shots. Meanwhile Ali was fighting much superior opposition.
George Foreman, Holmes and Lewis were all stripped of titles for refusing to fight number one contenders. Ali is the greatest of all time, he fought all the best fighters of his era.
From 64-75 Ali fought everyone there was to face. After that point I don't think that's the case. Imo he didn't have much interest in fighting Foreman again or a fourth Norton fight.
