Well during this time you never see them. Example if you liked Aretha franklin you saw the music video and heard her song on the radio that's it. Today if you like Taylor Swift she comes to you. Fakebook Twitter instasham TH-cam etc. plus videos and Radio and Internet radio.
At this point there was definitely some effects from the concussions and head trauma. 15 round fights were BRUTAL, and Ali would go the distance with Leon Spinks the next year (1978)...I can't imagine him fighting for 15 rounds in this condition.
@@bigglilwayne7050 Absolutely. I've watched that fight dozens of times. I think people think of the "Rope-A-Dope" as Ali just covering up and taking shots to the body, arms, etc . However what happened over and over again in that fight was Ali getting hit with bombs to the gloves cinched up against his head. He didn't take a punch right on the button, to the jaw or temple; it was those constant thudding blows to his own gloves on the side of his head that really took their toll. The fact that he fought Frazier a third time, Ken Norton a third time as well, Leon Spinks twice and Larry Holmes and many other fighters all AFTER the fight in Zaire with Big George is completely unreal.

In this period when I was growing up, we had fewer celebrity heroes, they were much bigger and meant so much to us. We were all glued to the TV when any of these guys came on.
You should have listened to some of Red's R rated records before he went on TV. My friends parents had a couple of them and when the cat's were away the mice did play.
Wow, I loved this! Thats what you call playful bantering and still having love and respect for each other!! This is also what Kevin & The Rock does. Two Iconic Legends, Redd Foxx & Muhammad Ali!!! May they rest in peace. 🕊️🙏🏽❤️🏆
4:50 I snickered when Redd Foxx grumbled about Muhammad Ali telling jokes, here. It reminded me of Johnny Carson who would, also, pull out the very same reaction (disappointment, pouty resentment, petty jealousy) when some guest was starting to win over the audience with a joke. It's got layers to it, and is hilarious.

I ask because "petty" is really more of a _behavior,_ and the other three words I used identify *emotions.* I understand that, if you don't actively practice reading people's emotions, it's hard.

Classic! Two of the greatest heavy weights dominating in their own lanes.This is the definition of two men,kings showing class of what true friendship is in life and in the entertainment business...

Can’t wait to share with my mother. We watched every episode of Sanford & Son, and she just couldn’t stop talking about Ali; she was so excited! So blessed we were!

Facts
I noticed that, Lol
Big Facts! As entertaining as the entire interview was. It was that part that brought me to the comments.
Ali was already starting to slow down. I remember the quick talking fast responding Ali who couldn’t stop. The Ali of the earlier 1970s’. My champ
Yes I think the Parkinson’s was already setting in
At this point there was definitely some effects from the concussions and head trauma. 15 round fights were BRUTAL, and Ali would go the distance with Leon Spinks the next year (1978)...I can't imagine him fighting for 15 rounds in this condition.
That was the lasting effects of the "Rope-a-Dope", Foreman inflicted more pain than all of his other fights combined...

Redd was so naturally funny he was amazing
It's awesome funny the fact that both of them were good friends with Malcolm....
Yep..Redd and Malcolm use to run the streets together before Malcolm became Malcolm , Malcolm was called Redd aswell..👍🏾
Not for long, Mohammed fell out with Malcolm X before Malcolm's death. Ali said that was his biggest regret.

How they hell didn't we know about all these old shows?
He quit Sanford and Son to do this. This show didn't last long and he went back to Sanford but no Lamont and it wasn't the same
I never knew nothing bout this
@LilMarv Yes Redd could have stayed on Sanford and Son because they still had good ratings
Producers are afraid to show us in our best light. It disproves so-called Whyte supremacy.
@@mcclendonreportABSOLUTELY 😊
This is bittersweet to watch, mostly because you can tell the champ is starting to slow down
True. Bittersweet is a perfect description ❤️
Its clear as day and so damn sad.
Yea
These two were quick on the draw and sharp with the tongue 😅
Ali was slowing down
That is comedy at its finest; the witty, brilliant, intelligent, King brother, Redd Foxx. and our beloved big brother, King Ali. it doesn’t get any better than this.

That would have been a fun show!
Foxx look like he could handle himself in the streets 😂
And if he couldn’t, he would sure make any opponent die laughing 😂
Anyone notice that Ali's speech was already beginning to get a bit slurred? I think the effects of Parkinson Syndrome were already beginning to show.
He clearly learned something about blocking.
Redd Foxx was quick with it, very funny. You can see why he was so successful
Yes Foxx was surprisingly very quick witted for his age
"His face looked different, it was punched to look like that" 😂😂 Fred G Sanford.
The inspiration for handsome Squidward
And the G stand for, “Good One.”
Classic. Never knew of this. Redd Foxx was really on or starred in a lot of tv shows.
Yes! Wish we could have seen more.
His stand-up act and comedy albums were hilarious and RAUNCHY. He paved the way for Richard Pryor and many others.
Red Foxx actually had his own tv show. It was called The Red Foxx Show.
Those defensive moves and the body shot let you Redd had skills.

Because he wasn't paying his taxes. He would have probably lived longer if he was...
Read could fight under those defensive moves. Wonderful show.
They were the best at their craft one a great fighter one a great comedian and both great communicators appreciated by anyone that listened to them .
Charisma overload complimenting each other

That is an education!
Two of my All-Time favorites!!!!!!!
We love them, too!
Didn’t know I needed this but this was a joy to watch , Ali maybe the greatest human to walk the earth during our time on this planet

Redd Foxx and Malcolm X were friends in Chicago before either of them were famous.
