    Have u read Ghosts of Manilla? Paints a much darker picture of Ali
    Check out some of Ali's wide world of sports interviews there are some gems in there.

      A clean PULL-COUNTER RIGHT CROSS by Ali....and yes look at Liston's head snap to the right and his back muscles. That's a clean and well-timed right cross as Liston was lunging forward carried by his own momentum after the left jab.



      Same thing that Mayweather pulled against Marquez and then ducking under Marquez's right cross...

        Thanks, I was just concerned as these authors may have biases or adgendas. You can't just believe anything, but it's stuff to take on board.

        Your thoughts on this?

          All it takes is the right nerve to be caught in the glove, then presto. Mr. Spock knows all about this, even James Bond and some Kung fu movies.

          And recently, that grazing punch that caught Banal which I really doubt because he was about to get up, then listened to some instructions ringside, then fell again. This was caught on TV.

            My name is John to so imma answer u aswell! Vitali Klitchko. He often throws sloppy arm punches that look weak but the guy can OBVIOUSLY crack hard!


            Can u imagine if Foreman had the punch technique of a Tyson!?

                If Foreman put his whole body into a punch hed have probably killed someone.

                  Dosent have the feel of him having an agenda, just another way of looking at things i think. Id recommend giving it a try

                      Im not joking around i think he might have actually been able to seperate a mans head from his body. For real.
