Chuvalo is a man in his 80's who could still kick the ass of 90% of the adult male population, even those in their primes. The man has had so many personal tragedies involving his family and took at least 10,000 punches to his head when he was younger, some of those by the best boxers in the world, and he's still positive, friendly, and living life to the fullest, when most of us would have packed it in decades ago after all that. A true champion and a gentleman in every sense of the words.
Yes indeed,a real "Class Act" and still very articulate &most capable at making his point! And I would add u learnt more here from George in a brief segment,than some contrived interviews or Docu's which might take up an Hour or so!
I am proud that George Chuvalo is of Croatian origin. I had the honor to meet him 11 years ago during his visit to Croatia: th-cam.com/video/1WA2xU9Yfxg/w-d-xo.html
Was it? I'd say the era from like the 20s-50s, when they would let you stand there and get your brains punched in, with no knockdown rules, with toy gloves, with more rounds, and fighting 2-4 times a month was the toughest era. Lol
I met George Chuvalo one on one in Vancouver in 1985. I called him Champ and I said that he'd fought Ali (G.O.A.T.) and that he had made Canadians proud. He was really humble and a very class act. I was very impressed with his down to earthiness, a super nice guy even though he was tough as nails inside the ring. Here's to the former Canadian Heavyweight Champion!
George Chuvalo is one of the few guys that had a long career but you couldn't tell he was a boxer. Leave alone he had 93 fights against every world class opponent of his days.
@@ronbonora7872 Not well known? Every boxing fan who lived during the Ali era and beyond knows about George Chuvalo. His reputation is to have one of the best chins in boxing history.
Chuvalo was never knocked down in 93 professional fights while fighting in what was far and away the most talented era in heavyweight history. Let me tell you, that's saying something. Iron chin, heart of a lion, and first class gentleman in every sense of the word.
I'll tell you how nice George Chuvalo is. I visited him after the Dick Wipperman fight in Akron, Ohio and he was kind and polite to this young boxer. He took the time to speak with me for quite a while despite that he was wrapped in a towel on the way to his post fight shower. I met a lot of fighters but George Chuvalo was the King of Class Act.
@@percybyssheshelly Right, with all the blows he's taken I thought he would end up slurring his words and would've had trouble articulating his thoughts and ideas, but this would be far from the case as he sounds amazing and healthy, I wish it like that for every boxer
A world class boxer and tough. Fought against the best in his era. Speaks extremely well of his experiences and career. Currently 84 years of age. Great respect to you Sir. 👏
What an amazing fellow. A truly nice guy, champion and a gentleman in every sense of the word. So many boxers can learn from him. Maximum respect to George Chuvalo. No wonder Ali became friends with him.
One of the great iron-chinned fighters. The fight game didn't take a lot of brain cells away from Chuvalo either. He was like Archie Moore, leaving the fight game with all of his marbles.
@@trajan75 Dempsey was never knocked out. He was knocked down several times but always got up. He lost on points twice to Tunney but he didn't get beat up at all.
George Chavalo was one tough guy. He fought when there was a wealth of Great Fighters. He could take a punch that would have knocked most out. Had his shining moments in the ring. This is the most I’ve ever heard him talk. He seems like a nice guy and a straight shooter. Very Lucid and Articulate! Good to See!
Now I want to learn more about this man. Unlike so many of his peers, he doesn't seem to suffer from dementia. He's classy and well-spoken when he's speaking about his opponent. Cool video clip.
Great fighter great man. He lived across the street from my grandparents in West Toronto. First met him around 1958 and saw his first fight with Ali at Maple Leaf Gardens. This video is a few years old because he is now in very poor condition. George we will always be proud of you. Bless you man!!
These champions, like George here, are so often very impressive in interviews - I guess after facing what they have, giving an interview isnt too difficult.
This is a man that carries himself with dignity and respect and one amazing tough boxer. Ali once said he was one of the toughest fighters he ever fought. Angelo Dundee knew his boxing and when he seen Chuvalo fight he was amazed and said Chuvalo was no bum. If Chuvalo was ever arrested for being kind there would be a great deal of evidence to convict him. The world needs more men like him.
Because he was hitting him in the kidneys which is illegal in boxing as far as I know. He had bleeding kidneys cause Chuvalo threw more body shots than ever in his life.
Not sure when this interview took place, but he's remarkable. He had 93 Fights and he's 84 years old and speaking with a clarity not found with most octogenarians.
George Chuvalo- a class act through and through- as kids in the 60’s we routed for him to beat Ali. The underdog. But he’s really now come out on top!!
Didn't appreciate George as much when I was a teen watching him, but now after so many years, and realizing who he fought, and that he was never even knocked down, let alone out, incredibly resilient, man, and I just like the person he is too !
They could do a movie on George’s life he had it hard , three kids ODing and wife commits suicide . he gave Ali two of the hardest fights Ali’s had ,but George never got knocked down that in itself is incredible , he’s probably the toughest guy I’ve seen
What a though life He had outside ring, it amazes me how He coped with all tragedy`s in his life from young age I have so much respect for this great man, my hat off Mr. Chuvalo
We love you, George..... from when I was a kid at Cabbagetown fight nights to your visits to the North West Territories...you were the embodiment of a gentleman and treated everyone exactly the same.☮
When you see an old guy sitting in a bar and no one pays attention to him. Then you find out he’s the famous George Chuvalo who fought Muhammad Ali twice and George Foreman, AND Joe Frazier, AND Floyd Patterson!Fabulous to see him looking and sounding so well! That’s a piece of boxing history right there.
Nat Fleischer, who edited The Ring Magazine from 1922 until his death in 1972, said that George Chuvalo was the toughest fighter he'd ever seen. Just think about how many fighters Fleischer had seen in over those years.
Ali is gone, and Chuvalo still strong and able to speak very clearly. What a tough man and contender....a class fighter from Canada. When boxers were boxers...by trade. A life example of persistence. He will be 85 in September. Wow.
watched chuvalo and ali train at the northwest eagles gym in north vancouver in preparation for their fight. ali was all personality and chuvalo all business. watched chuvalo work a hard three minute round with his trainer and after the round he walked over to the ropes and leaned his forearms on the top rope with his gloves over the edge of the ring above a wooden table. chuvalo opened his gloves and let the two lead weights that he had in his gloves drop with a crash to the table below. 50 years ago but seems like yesterday.
At the time i had no idea who he was. back in the mid 90s i use to work out at a gym and he would attend with his niece i believe. He was a quiet man and rightfully so after just losing a son and his wife. He exemplifies strength both outside and in.
Rocky Marciano once said, "If all fights went 100 rounds, George Chuvalo would be unbeaten in any era.” You can tell the Brockton Blockbuster was right when you hear how clearly Chuvalo still speaks to this day. He is like the late Tiger Ted Lowry, two time Marciano opponent, their styles are different, though.
I wont get near his age and i`m 57 now.I`ve never been in a boxing ring but George Chuvalo considering all his tough fights and his family tragedies and terrible they were he`s still looking good in his 80s.Amazing fellah
What year was this? Chuvalo is a Canadian legend. There is a statue of George in somewhere in Bosnia where his parents were born. It's often said George had one of the best chins in boxing ever.
GOTTA Love George. That First Ali Fight Was Insane To See Him Take A Million Punches, Ya Know. Now He Wasnt A Huge Pressure Fighter Like Joe Frazier But Inside/Relentless Is Definitely Him. His Story Always Makes Me Cry From His Wife To His Two Sons. Sad Story But I Love This Guy. One OF The First Men To Call Him Muhammad Ali In Front Of ALL Rich Racists Mfs That Kept Yelling Clay, Cassius Clay.
I dint know who this guy was...what a legend...he fought some great names patterson..foreman ali twice..frazier...93 fights! Awsome guy...and no fool in the ring! ..glad to see him so sharpe n healthy after all those fights💪👍🥊💣💥❤
It's so great (and unusual) to see a former boxer his age who can speak in complete sentences, communicate clearly and access his thoughts and memories with ease. He comes across as a very likable, thoughtful and generous man. Good sense of proportion, too--he's not saying "I was robbed!" fifty years later.
Kind of a shame all these incredible fighters from the 60’s and 70’s only get asked about fighting Ali. Guys like Chuvalo, Quarry, Bugner, Bonavena, Cooper et al were all beasts in their own right and deserve that respect
Wonderful to see CHUVALO in such great mental condition with no signs whatsoever of any ill effects of his boxing career. Incredibly well spoken and in full command of his faculties, unlike many former boxers who can barely talk. May GOD bless him and keep him alive and well. An honest old school real heavyweight with a chin of steel. They once asked him if he had ever been on his knees and he said " only in church "...never knocked down I believe.
Sadly he's been suffering from dementia since at least 2018. This interview was probably done before 2018. His current wife and children are feuding over his care.
good to see an old fighter still alive with good cognitive ability...so many die prematurely or suffer brain damage.....i like his diplomatic this guy is...
I knew George in Toronto back in the early 1990's. What an amazing human and a big hearted man. He signed a photo and autographed it for me. He wrote: " My name Keep on Punching Kid" Tougher then most believe he was. Love you Bro!
George is a very cool guy He was a tough fighter Unfortunately he fought when the division was loaded which prevented him from winning a title. But he gave everyone hell in the ring
GREAT fighter and wise man. When George talks about Ali not fighting in a war he didn't believe in, reminds me of the present time between Russia and Ukraine, Many of the Russian soldiers Not wanting to attack a sovereign State.

He is a gentleman.
And he has come out the other side with his brain intact, which is a big plus....stay healthy george
Sounds like a nice person. Very humble.

George is a class act , had nothing but praise for Ali even though he lost the fight , what kind of person does that ? A good one that’s who !!!!!
George Chuvalo is a gem for documenting his boxing era. He was good at taking punishment, and a very rugged opponent for other boxers.

That's true but the fight was stopped before he went down.
But he never gave up like so many others.
George was a great fighter. Taking nothing away from him. A great fighter!
A very difficult fight for anyone in any era !!!
Man I'm glad I stumbled across this video. This is some rare great content.

George Chuvalo: great fighter, great man.
He looks like he is in his 60"s. amazing!
Sooo glad to hear his clear speaking abilities, a lot of older fighters are struggling with that. 🙏🏽❤️
One of the great iron-chinned fighters. The fight game didn't take a lot of brain cells away from Chuvalo either. He was like Archie Moore, leaving the fight game with all of his marbles.
Speaks clearly & forms complicated sentences without a problem. Probably got better brain health than Joe Biden!
@@brentsummers7377 Now hold on a minute. Biden's pretty sharp for a guy who is beginning to slur his words.
Jack Dempsy too. As a boy I met him at his restaurant on Broadway. Hemust have been 80 but he was a charming guy.

Not every fighter suffers from CTE. There are certainly more with CTE than without but still... he's lucky
His private life is so tragic.Poor guy
Always enjoyed George fighting You're a stand-up guy thanks George

I think you are absolutely amazing. Thank you for being part of my life George I don’t mean to be disrespectful. I just love you.

Well spoken, straight, honest, very respectful. Mr. Chuvalo comes across as a great guy.
"Washer woman" my ass. First man to put Ali in the hospital in 65', true story. Great fighter, vastly underrated.
Because he was hitting him in the kidneys which is illegal in boxing as far as I know. He had bleeding kidneys cause Chuvalo threw more body shots than ever in his life.
Mr. Chuvalo was a fine man in his prime time, and he is still now, an Example of a real MAN. God Bless Him!!!!
What this man went through…Emotionally and all..my heart goes out to him..that my friends is one tough MAN….God bless George Chuvalo
GOOD MAN CHUVALO...GREAT FIGHTER!!
Look at the size of his hands and forearms even as an old man. That’s a man there.
Not sure when this interview took place, but he's remarkable. He had 93 Fights and he's 84 years old and speaking with a clarity not found with most octogenarians.
Well, it was at least six years ago, because he is referring to Ali as still being alive.
One word for this man -- AWESOME !!
He conquered his depression when tragedy hit his family.....a champ in and outside of the ring.
Ali (rip) passed in 2016. When was this interview? Chuvalo is a living legend
Yes was wondering that too, as I'd heard he's not doing too great at the moment apparently ..

This guy was great boxer, granite chin, good to see him now looking healthy in his later years.
