      - -Ali was 201 for the Sir 'Enery rematch, the size of smallish cruisers .

      Looked sorta scared too, but of course 'Enery bled like a stuck pig after a few Ali jabs. At least he didn't need Angelo intervention, smelling salts, and extra rest time to recover this go round.

        Muhammad Ali was over-trained for Ken Norton II 'And you could see that in the way he fought'.

        Ali was known to be abit of a lazy trainer in the 70's, even Larry Holmes stated that Ali could of trained harder for George Foreman.

        Just like Tyson Fury, Muhammad Ali depending on who he was fighting seemingly morphed from fight to fight.

        I did not mind Ali when he was close to 210-220 pounds. Norton I, Frazier I & II, Ron Lyle 'Muhammad Ali was sturdy in those fights'.

          Interesting how some of the top HW's of the 60s/70s would probably be outweighed by many or most CW's now on fight night.

            - -No Doubt heavies then would be training quite differently from back then in the 12 rd era of scored KDs and heavy handed behemoth hvys.
