Muhammad Ali vs. Mac Foster

At the end of Round14. Muhammad Ali was breathing very heavy in his corner, but was unmarked
other than minor puffiness high on the right cheek.

Mac Foster had a puffy right eye-lid, and slightly puffy left eye-brow, but was not hurt.

Round 15

Both fighters meet at Center-Ring and touch gloves.

Muhammad immediately goes to circling to his left {clockwise} and fires out long range left-jabs
into Mac's face.

Mac stalks, and looks to unload. At the {0:22 Mark}, Mac lands a sharp left-right to Muhammad's
head.

Muhammad starts to bounce on his toes, and moves easily as he circles and pecks away with
snappy left jabs.

Mac lands with a slapping left-hand to Muhammad's face at the {0:57 Mark}.

Muhammad lands several left-right {one-two's}, as Mac keeps a high-guard while waiting to counter.

Mac lands '3' light right-hands as he backs Muhammad up at the {1:21 Mark}.

Muhammad gets on his bicycle, and circles and jabs, as Mac slowly plods.

Muhammad continues to land light but scoring left-jabs over the middle-session of the Round.

Mac is now doing nothing much, and is content to take punches and press forward and throw an occasional
counter-punch.

Muhammad opens up some at the {2:10 Mark}. and fires away backing Mac up near Muhammad's corner.
Muhammad flurries for 15-Seconds in an attempt to floor Mac, but the punches lack any power.

Mac again rides out the brief flurry, and easily makes it until the Final Bell.

At the Bell, Mac touches Muhammad and tells him > "You never hurt me Punk. Did you hear me,
it's the 15th Round, and I'm still standing."

Muhammad does not acknowledge Mac, and tries to look away.

Mac walks across the Ring, and back to his corner.

After a few moments, Muhammad walks across the Ring to offer his compliments to Mac Foster's
cornermen {Ralpg Gambina and George Stassi}. Muhammad says > "Good job, it was a fair fight."
