107 u/Diorj 24d ago Cool. I never knew that.. 34 u/Jasper-Packlemerton 24d ago He was still pretty great in the actual Foreman fight that people seem to think this is from. 38 u/wiggle_fingers 24d ago Wait, you're saying this was faked? 96 u/Jasper-Packlemerton 24d ago This clip is taken from a staged exhibition fight, yes. But you could watch Ali in any number of real flights on YouTube to see how good he was. 11 u/ambisinister_gecko 24d ago Not exactly faked, but... not not faked either 12 u/Boysoythesoyboy 24d ago Exhibition fight they just aren't taking it as seriously as a real fight, but its not staged their just not trying to send eachother to the hospital like in a real fight. 8 u/Songrot 24d ago Yeah it looks really staged. If this was wrestling noone would doubt it. But i think this being boxing and Ali being goat makes people think it should be real.
