    Thrilla in Manila

    In the documentary they said that Ali wanted his gloves cut off after the 14 round, Its the first time Ive heard of that, but they said he later confirmed it, I wonder what would have happened if they didn't stop the fight, Joe couldn't see but Ali was dead tired. Really great documentary.

    Ye i watched that documentary...was really interesting to see alot more of joes point of view...Ali said if joe had come out that round he wasnt going out....when they found out Joe had been pulled out...ali collpased on the floor and i think had to get medical treatment or somin like that. The thing on everybodys mind tho was what would of happened if he did come out for the 15th round....

    Would Ali rly of not gone out? Would frazier of taken to much damage to his head....its crazy

      Ali did collapse right after recieving the news that he had won..! Really nice doc though.. I would expect the documentary to be another Ali-nuthugging doc but it was focused on telling the story from Fraziers point of view.. 10/10
