Best rounds in Ali's career?

[DuncanJL]

Hey people. Let me say that i know its too difficult to name every great round of his career. I want to hear about some that I might not have seen a million times. Let's hear some personal favorite rounds, the ones you guys get excited for when you watch his fights. Some of mine include:

1. round 9 of Ali-Frazier I

2. rounds 6 & 12 of Patterson I

3. round 11 vs Lyle

4. round 12 vs Mildenburger

alright lets get this list goin. and i don't want everyone saying rd 14 of Thrilla and rd 8 of Rumble either.

8th round of the forman fight, obviously

but if you wanna watch a great fight, watch the whole foreman fight and the whole fraizer ali III
id also watch the first liston fight, its pretty short

that will get you into ali, those are some great fights

[Easy-E]

oh, its also fun to watch him beat the **** out of floyd patterson

Well there are so many, but the one I really enjoy is watching the 15th round of Ali-Spinks I. Watching what the 36 year old Ali can do in the 15th round is insane. He lost the fight, but that's still a round that amazes me. Most HW's today can't throw punches like that in the 10th round, let alone the 15th.

Most of the great rounds are in the Frazier fights, particularly 1 and 3, but I'm too lazy to try and name them right now...

ive seen most of ali's fights. i haven't been able to see every fight in the '72-'73 era. and i haven't seen a few of the '75-'78 title fights, nor holmes/berbick.

Ali shows pure skill in the 3rd round of the Cleveland Williams fight, he lands like 7-8 punches on his jaw before williams can even react

Oscar Bonavena Round 15, Ali takes him down 3 times to TKO him in the final round.

Oscar Bonavena Round 15, Ali takes him down 3 times to TKO him in the final round.

LOL good call. Bonavena was talking SO MUCH **** to Ali leading up to the fight, calling him Clay and a chicken and all that. That was a great TKO.

[DuncanJL]

i used to hate Bonavena because all i had seen of him was that pre-hype "chicken" bull****. after the fight he seemed like he was in awe of ali. and he apoligized to him directly on camera and said it was all to hype the fight. and he told ali right there that he was the greatest and that he would beat Frazier. after that i felt sort of bad about gettin so excited seein that KO left hook to Bonavena's temple.

yeah each time he gets up ALi is all over him like stink on ****. i dont think he even gets a chance to breathe in between knockdowns.
