I thought it must have been around then. He looked terrible.

I haven't and never will watch this vid.

wouldn't exactly call him 'stunned' in the true sense of the word.

Sadly ironic the role he's playing in there around Holmes and Berbick fights

So sad to watch , Ali should never have been anywhere near a ring at this stage :bawling: truly tragic .

Makes me wonder sometimes if he'd have had the health problems he has now if he hadn't continued. We'll never know and to be fair he'd already started showing signs his health was seriously deteriorating before he fought Berbick and he shouldn't have been allowed to fight anyway. I much prefer watching him 20 years before this.

I just watched the fight with Trevor Berbick, and Muhammad Ali actually held his own. Just goes to show much better Muhammad Ali was than Trevor Berbick in his prime, Muhammad Ali should of retired after the Thrilla In Manilla.

What? :rolleyes:

The documentary Ali v Holmes was one of the saddest TV I have ever seen. Holmes in his prime and Ali could barely talk, run and box. How they allowed the fight to happen was just sad.

Itotally agree with that, terrible , Ali had so many hangers on and arse lickers telling him he was still the greatest to fill there own fucking pockets , it makes me sick , Angelo Dundee should never have been there till the bitter end , he should have told Ali it was over after Frazier , and walked it may have made Ali realise he was at the end of the road .

sad to watch but very nice find.

One of the saddest days in boxing history was seeing Ali enter the ring against Trevor Berbick. Ali should've retired after the Thriller in Manilla, he got gift decisions to keep him going in the late 70's and some people have a lot to answer for with regards to his current condition.

I think Ali should never have fought Lyle or Shavers or Norton a 3rd time, all of that was unnecessary shots to the head and organs at a time when he had already proved everything to the world and himself. No need to fight those hard hitters at that stage. He took alot of punishment from the 1st Spinks fight too, Leon landed quite a number of bombs there.

That ain't Muhammad Ali. Just an old athlete who shared the name.

Just shows you what a beast Hearn’s was, could you imagine a welterweight sparring with the Klitscko’s.

I wont watch that again!

horrible.

Reminds me that I used to daydream of Ali coming out of retirement in the 1980s after being treated for his condition, and taking the title from Spinks and Tyson in close fought decisions Rocky VI style. I actually believed it was going to happen back then.
