Some definitions:
"Work" - both guys are just making it look real but it's not. Like Mayweather/Big Show

"Do the Job" - take a loss (on purpose)
"Hari Kari" - suicide
Highlights:
- Ali was paid $6 million for the fight which was his highest payday at the time
- Ali didn't want to do it, but money doe
- Ali's people wrote requirements that basically limited Inoki's ability to hurt Ali (because they knew Inoki was legit) and it still didn't matter
- Ali almost lost a leg, due to the blood clots from Inoki's kicks, and his legs were never the same again.
