    But Ali wasn't moving like he did before his exile either.
    Did Cus land a jab or did Ali just pull away when he walked off?

    agree...Ali wasn't the same, what a shame

    I think this is why Ali gets so much credit: when his attributes declined, he was still able to win...he took incredible amounts of punishment that few, if any other boxer(s), could of taken, the guy just left you in awe sometimes.

      this is true...Ali used to also hang around Jimmy Jacobs because Jacobs had a library full of fight footage.
