Without seeing this link, I came across that. Ali the genius eventually overcame the always going forward style and amazing hooks & upper cuts of Frazer.

Ali in the 13th & 14th rounds wa incredible.

And it was over 15 years since the Olympics win. What a career.

Just watched the documentary about Ali coming to Britain, it was brilliant. As someone too young to ever see the man in action it has been really good to watch footage of him fighting and the press conferences he had and also the love he had for this country and the love people showed back to him, genuinely a really nice bloke.

The rhymes he would make are pure genius.

I was amazed by the punches that both received, that they didn't even register, as if it hadn't just happened.

Brutal.
