      yea, i do think that if his arms started to go down, do you think he would've started dancing again? i mean the whole point was to show ppl that his foot work was eveything to him

      i think around like the end when his arms were going down he would've danced but been too tired to keep it up thats why i say Foreman would've won, but Foreman never really had the stamina to go beyond 5

        I don't think he would have danced for 15 rounds maybe 8+ he may have danced 15 rounds against someone **** but 8+ against someone good enougth

          i really don't think anybody of that size and weight could've have danced for 15 rounds, and frankly the fact that he could do it for 8 is an accomplishment all in itself

            You haven't seen many of Ali's early fights have you?

                well even if he could have gone 15 rounds of dancing after a beating from foreman for like 10-12 rounds i don't think there'd be to much hop in his step

                  Very true but it would be virtually impossible to 15 rounds dancing whilst getting hit wouldnt it…?

                    agreed
                    because of his footwork he usually didn't get to hard which is why he was up against the ropes against foreman to show he could take a hit which he did pretty well
