While one of the interviewers was asking a question, and he was mockingly flapping his mouth... He seems about as annoying as any 21 year old. He is naturally very charming of course, but Ali at 21 was still very clearly a brat.

@@sjajajajajaja5181 what I mean, is that Ali was an entertainer as well as a boxer. He had seen Gorgeous George the wrestler and got the idea. So he actually developed a ring persona. It worked to publicise his fights and to incite his aponents so they would lose their cool in the ring. In '63, he was still developing that persona .

That was a TOUGH Fight. Ali's Amazing footwork and weapon punching is sooooo freaking crazy to watch. He makes all his fights look like Movies. Chuvalo on the other hand is tougher than stones. I don't think he stumbled once thru the whole fight. Ali was letting him punch him in the body too which is why he took so much punishment by pissing blood. Damaged kidneys.
