Holy crap I watched every video on TH-cam of Ali but this is really rare
You’re not alone brother
True.
Same here!!!! I was so happy to run across this video!!!! Greatest athlete of all time!!!!
I feel u bro!
I've been watching his videos for 2 days now I'm in awe
No one gathered such qualities together: power, speed, toughness, heart, will, mind, personality and beauty inside and outside of the ring: the greatest athlete of all times !
NO DOUBT !!
Foreman punched harder along with a few others. Foreman was tougher. Ali was probably the fastest of that era, but his winning trait was his heart, which unfortunately caused him to basically be a vegetable or damn near close too it.
Greatest of all time.
@@Breatheable Earny shavers was the hardest puncher ever
And Ali beat him
@@AK-qy3gp Ernie Shavers was strong sure but wasn't fast. Tyson was the best of both worlds speed and strength a better version than Frazier. Only Ali had faster hands and feet, but Frazier went the distance with Ali. Tyson heart and will was no where near Ali though. if Ali fought prime Tyson i believe it would be the same record as Ali vs Frazier 2-1
Anyone else calling themselves “the greatest” would be considered arrogant. But Ali, he was charismatic; he was beautiful; he was smart. He WAS the greatest.
IS
still incomparable today...we're living in a world where trump is the greatest leader on this earth
YESSSSS But also he said..."It not bragging if u can back it up" !!!!!! :-)
Well said sir
Wow Muhammad Was definitely more than just the greatest boxer ever lived
O
Òà and
That even The legend champion George Foreman said about Ali ''it's disrespectful to say Ali was greatest boxer of all time and Ali was more than and he was greatest men of all time''
@thomas riner Cry white boy
@@ernestgibbs24 .
He was the greatest when he began
He is still the greatest and
He will forever be the greatest of all time
Ali was once in a lifetime human being. simply unrepeatable person
And that coming from Zelda 😁🤣👊
George Foreman the second champion and after Ali even said ''It disrespectful to say Mohammed Ali is Greatest boxer of all time'', Actually he's Greatest men of all time and one life time men.
"A wise man can act the fool, but a fool cannot act the wise man. I am the Greatest!"
He melted my heart he was gifted to us from God
Thank God for sending you into this world to bless us. We admired your good looks, your goodness, your gracefulness. You wowed us, tickled us amazed us put smiles on our faces. You entertained us inside and outside the ring. You had it all Muhammad. We’ll never see another. Even your haters secretly admired and still love you! Rest in perfect peace champ. The people’s champion FOREVER!
Ali is the reason I started boxing. Ali made me feel proud, he changed my life in an awesome way. We love you brother and miss you terribly. maurice
What is the best exercise for boxing sir and diet
heart
I like to jump rope for 20 minutes, then take 4 lb weights and shadow box with those. If you're new try to jump rope for maybe 5 minutes and use 2 or 1 lb weights. As far as diet goes, just stop eating junk. Most healthy food will get burned off when you exercise.
@@redacted3557 train whatever you need heart and bottle to win. I boxed and bare knuckled for a long time when I was young..got beat twice but got em both back.. not too 'new' ehy
Damn. I've only done 3 sparring matches so far, so hearing you comeback like that is real cool.
HE SHOOK UP THE WORLD , nobody moved like ali ,boxing will never forget you thats for sure R.I.P the greatest of all times
The greatest of all time. Noone will ever repeat this great man. Absolute legend. what he stood for in and out of the ring was inspiring. If we all followed in his footsteps and acted like humans should act like and followed the right path the world would be a better place. Thankyou ali
He preached many bad things
Yes sir ...you are the greatest , and truely, you stood up high and above all men of all races and colors , represented your people very well and stood up for them and championed their cause and walked among men with pride, and people saw black beautiful. ..and for all I know, you fought injustices, bravely swam against a hard current when it was easy to conform and succumb , spoke your heart and never bowed to no man..
So grateful to you for this footage . Never seen it before. Love Ali more!
I'm a HUGE Ali fan due to my late father who idolised him (we are from England) and I grew up in the 70s where all I heard was "Ali this and Ali that" - but I have never seen this! This is very REVEALING and awesome! Thank you.
Wonderful documentary about a World's Greatest Athlete... MUHAMMAD ALI, The Greatest of All Time!!!
May Allah Al mighty give my hero an elevated position in heaven ameen.
9 kids by 5 women.
Amiin
Did anyone notified that this Senior Australian Reporter who had presented this rare clip of Ali & Frazier had just passed away 4 days before this Great upload
RIP ALI, FRAZIER & MIKE WILLESEE 😎
This was a part of our tribute to the great Mike Willesee. You can watch more of his work here... th-cam.com/video/xpBSmvLs0Kw/w-d-xo.html
Great interview. RIP to Ali & RIP to Mike Willesee (the interviewer) he died in Australia a few years ago from throat cancer
This deserves millions of views. That was one of the best interviews of the champ ive seen. The name Mohammed Ali made me the most attractive human being on earth. May ALLAH have mercy on him. AMEEN
Allah and the so called "Prophet" reside in the same place Ali does. Hell. There is but one God and one true Savior, The LORD Jesus Christ. Ali put his trust in the wrong Savior and it was a HELL of a bad decision, as he surely found out 1 second after he breathed his last breath.
I remember getting up at 4 o'clock in the morning, and watching Ali fight. He was the greatest fighter ever. There has not been anyone like him, and I don't think there ever will be.
Handsome, confident and strong... The greatest of all time!

I am now 55 and Muhammad Ali was my childhood " Hero " ..after my parents divorced when I was 14, this little Italian kid from Pittsburg, Ca. was INSPIRED by this man and what he said and did ! I loved him with Howard Cosell too , so funny ! GOD BLESS Joe Frazier too ! This was a classic time in my lifetime !
That's awesome, I'm 39 and found out about the GOAT when I was 15 till this day I have never felt that level of inspiration . I wish I could have been around to follow his career in real time. Your lucky
@The tax Collector thank you sir I needed that
Congrats on having a draft dodging Muslim, big mouth as your hero.

@@tombstone1111 here u know what's funny that Muslim is still more successful than u and he is died he grave costs more than ur life which is rlly fucking funny considering that u probs not even gonna be able to afford ur on grave
Doesn't matter who you were , you watched ,
and believed , for Ali is , *_The Greatest_*
He is he was a real champ the real deal he worked really hard to get to the top and they wrote at great song after him love that song
@@horsesrule440 It was difficult seeing him at the Olympics ,

Oh Allah; The One, The Absolute, The Eternal, The Master of the Day of Judgement, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful, You are ancient having no beginning and Everlasting having no end; I beg you Allah, by every name that belongs to You, bless our Muhammad Ali and shower him with forgiveness and grant him the highest stations in the blessed Paradise!
Peace be upon all.
O Allah Ameen thank u 🙏
Well said brother ameen
I find comments like this so strange, this guy was just a boxer, he wasnt a prophet. Pray for your own family like that
@@BigBoss7777777 its ok. We expect this to be strange to you. We understand thats all that matters to us
Aameen ya Allah
He wasn't just the greatest boxer, his mind was greatest..
Who ever compared to Ali, he had the whole package, there have been great sportsman, but he is on another level.
they tried to compare him with conner butt nugget mcgreggor
Remember Him after the Olympics when He entered Boxing Professional. I was only a kid, and I wasn't even interested in Boxing. That was about to change, along with Boxing forever I remember the "Thrilla" from a Television in a Bar in La Jolla Ca, where I was enjoying a Band, but everything stopped to become mesmerized by this yet to become Historical Moment. My Wife has a Photo of Herself with Ali, taken at the Atlanta Airport, which He was gracious enough to pose for. A true Champion, the Greatest, and I feel fortunate to have shared his Time of living. What a Beautiful Human.
“I always comb my hair before an interview because I must preserve my beauty ...” hahahaha😂. So amazing 🤗
Ali’s the Man 🤗
Ive always been a fan of Ali. Grew up watching all of his films as a child. And to this day i am still watching youtube videos of the greatest. But after watching this clip i have to say, i admire the man even more. What an athlete, but even more, what a great human being.
I was mesmerized by him once again. There is no question who was the greatest of all time in every way...it was and alway's will be you Mahammad Ali , only you ..
I watched and re-watched Ali documentaries. This is definitely one of the best. Good work.
"If you even dream of beating me, you'd better wake up and apologize."
Muhammed Ali
Ali was the greatest boxer, greatest athlete, greatest human being of all time. The Greatest.

Must appreciate Mike willesee to save this great moments of great Ali.

Styles make fights. Ali and Frazier were just meant for each other. They made each other's legends even greater. No rivalry in the history of sport has ever been more fierce. The thrilla is quite simply the greatest battle ever in the history of sport
Heavyweight champion in and out of the ring. Respect.
Thank you so much for your Great Legacy, Champ.. R.I.P...

The Greatest Athlete of All times,tears roll into my eyes when Larry Holmes stopped him,he will and always be my Hero,no other athletes has a greater impact than The Greatest,Love you Champ(Alfateha)
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MUHAMMAD, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST. I LOVE TO HEAR YOUR VOICE, UNSCRIPTED NOTHING FAKE ALWAYS HONEST. NEVER AFRAID TO SHOW YOUR VULNERABILITY AND SHOWED STRENGTH AT THE SAME TIME. A DIFFERENT TYPE OF BLACK MAN, PROUD STOOD TALL, FEARLESS AND BEAUTIFUL. I MISS YOUR PRESENCE AND YOUR SPIRIT.
Wow! What a amazing man. Love n respect 💓
What a great documentary!
Ali the most real.
Thx for the footage
King Ali ....4 ever!!!!
I mean , they are all very significant to that era ... Joe Frazier .... George Foreman ... Ken Norton ..... I mean , they were all champions with Ali .... They were all worthy matches ..... I think each of their names are to be reflected along with Ali , when even mentioning Ali .... These individuals made the era of time so interesting .... As much as Ali is loved .... they themselves , for some reason in my
Mind, share along with the glory that was Ali .... There is love for each one of those bowing opponents , along with Ali , the main ingredient of that era and scene....
To be in the presence of Joe Louis evens means more than it would , I think , because of Ali , even if Joe might have been , and actually was for the moment , Champion without Ali ....
Muhammad Ali was just so lovable , to me ... Brilliant .... Humorous in his seriousness and meaningfulness ..... Mohammed Ali took such a dirty sport and made it so clean when he was in the picture ....
And he was so right about himself ... His ‘conceit’ was actually accurate . I believe it was really just confident in a sacred knowledge rather than conceit .
His confidence was lovable , not hated . He had so much love and Humanitarianism to his confidence , I think .... And that was why he could not be hated , I think .
lol, jf loved ali?
Enjoyed this very much. Thank you
He was unique, not just as a boxer but as a humanitarian. He had a great mind that unfortunately was sacrificed to boxing.
Mohammed ali, Azuma Nelson Mike Tyson, Joe fraizar etc...... The Kings of boxing from 70s, 80s,90...
Add Marciano from the 40's and 50's!!
He took pride in his name, name of our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW, he stood up for his religion, for his principles. ALLAH SWT gave him the fame, the respect and the boundless love of people one can't even imagine.
Ali" you have seen the half of it " half of his energy.🥶
You made a phenomenal documentary.
You showed the world some of Ali’s finest moments and wisest words who had and will inspire millions of people.
I would salute you for making this interview and then the documentary.
As for as Ali is concerned; he was greater than boxing.
Helluva video. Thanks for posting.
This video is so interesting, it dives into the details
Ali is one smart man...RIP
Wow so inspirational am speechless, definitely the greatest ever, everything he said is and was true!!!!!
Man ...... even if he were not a boxer , Ali would still be Most Amazingly THE GREATEST .... His character & Personality is so wonderfully lovable
this is superb conversation by Ali..Ali..simply the best…not just in boxing wise but beyond that…a real great human being..
This was no man. Ali was the one and only superman ever to set foot on earth.
He bedazzled us in everything from boxing to humanitarianism. He left behind him an entire generation of folks who were mesmerised by everything he did and said. Such people are an once in a lifetime event. We were part of that audience who the Greatest enthralled us with. He is IMMORTAL. HE IS MUHAMMAD ALI.
Beautiful....thank you sharing this...….
Karisma is Knowledge ...🤗
One of the greatest human beings of all time.
THATS very rare bro amazing
This guy saide and spoke his mind was not scared to stand up for himself and say it how it was that itself deserves respect it takes courage and a lot of guts to do that he Weill never be forgotten
his mind was never his own.
What a great video sir thankyou
Muhammad Ali my all time favourite brother ❤️🙏🏾
There will never he another one like him in any sport. He was simply the greatest. Boxing didn't died with his retirement or death but a big part of it left with him.
This man along with Bruce Lee both inspire me to all greatness!!
This was just WOW!
Wow....i almost cried at the end! Ali was great (may God rest his soul)....but imagine the One invented greatness, the One True Creator of Men & things of which we have No idea!
I wish to god I’d met him ❤️
Great insight!
Would like to see some unedited footage of the full interview, looks like a rare one.
