In the second fight he swelled Chuvalo's face like a pumpkin

[QueensburyRules]

- -Chuvalo's face was already swelled like a pumpkin.

Ali was forced to work like hell to keep Chuvalo off him and sore as hell afterward.

A lot of the old timers swear by wood chopping. It must be great for rotational power I'm guessing.

Just stop. Ali toyed with Chuvalo. The only thing Chuvalo did was land illegal kidney punches in the clinch during their first fight.

- -While Ali illegally pulling Chuvalo's head down.

Just stop pretending you know something about boxing and Ali was some kinda saint. Georg took that fight on short notice as a favor for Ali who was frozen out of big American venues because of his politics and religion.

Ali hisself sang high praises to Chuvalo as one of the toughest, most difficult fighters he faced.
