Ali's best weapon was his defense..never tried to injure his opponent...never hit a man when he was down...gave everyone a shot..never Dodge a fight..👍👍..the greatest..
Dunn used to balance huge ladders on his chin, when he worked on building sites. A proud Yorkshireman, Paratrooper and a lovely man. Unfortunately now suffering with dementia. 🥊❤️🇬🇧
The sands of time were shifting, for the Legendary Muhammad Ali, as he was def fatigued at the end of this bout, in his Mid 30's and more than 15 years of boxing had taken it's toll, esp after all the Joe Frazier Battles, probably the most scientific and fastest Heavyweight of all time, in his prime (1967) he was unbeatable, I feel he should have retired then as undefeated Heavyweight boxer of all time, making him the only the second to do so (Rocky Marciano being they first ) R.I.P Champ, we all miss you.😇🥰
disagree. he should probably have called it a day before the Holmes fight, but as long as he was learning and improving.... the Frazier fights, Foreman, the hilarious Wepner chastizement and the 2nd Spinks fight? - all well worth it. Ali is the best.
A brave effort by Yorkshireman Dunn, but he was in over his head. 1976 was a busy year for the greatest. 4 title defences and that odd affair against wrestler Antonio Inoki in June. Just a month after the Dunn contest.
@@Taimaagreed, greatly damaged his health and footwork/speed. I definitely think he would have been better off not doing the fight, it wasnt even entertaining
Dunn doesn’t have the abilities and power but he gives it everything he’s got and how many better fighters hold back when they should be letting the hands go.
Richard had in fact been knocked out in eight previous fights, and so he had been knocked down fairly often. He had most likely been knocked down in a few fights that he managed to win. He had a very rigid stance and was easy to knock down.
Dunn was a brave fighter and did at least make Ali change his tactics. Clearly Ali's team thought he could quickly steamroller Dunn (the way Bugner did in his next fight) but, after two rounds of trying he returned to type, dancing around the ring and picking Dunn off instead. Dunn was a brave fighter but the result was inevitable as he didn't have the mobility or the craft to win but he gave it a good go.
Ehh idk about that. Maybe third. I think the biggest difference if anything really is that Ali would've gotten rocked a good deal less. He took a few heavy hits that prime Ali wouldn't have.
@@thecurlew7403 Explains why that dude was so crazy about eating punches. He had absolutely zero fear of Ali, not that I necessarily expected him to, but the way he damn near ran at him every round and every time they were apart for more.
Eh, yes and no. Yea, he could be nasty at times, but a lot of that was purely tactical. He did it to get in his opponents heads and get them so frustrated that they would get desperate and make mistakes. The biggest evidence of that would be his fight against Foreman. He was actually friends with a lot of these guys outside the ring.
Ali took too many punches. I was sixteen and I thought to myself I'm neved going to get cracked like that. I look at some of these guys walking around in a fog. Terry Norris, he use to be full of life and now his voice has slowed and he is in the fog. That fight with Julian Jackson was the fight that he never recovered from. It only takes one punch to jack you u p for life. That is why I loved to watch Mayweather fight. When you get older thatmis when it catches you. Larry Holmes, he is not bad m but he is getting there.
Presumably the fight had to take place in Munich for Tax reasons as the UK was under a high tax Labour government if it took place in the UK the money earned by Ail and Dunn would have been taken away by the then UK Government in tax
Evander Holyfield like he did to Moorer in the 2nd fight, would’ve done the same To Richard Dunn like Muhammad Ali did.. If it came to be? Then Like Father Like Son
This whole thing was truly biased from the commentary to the comments DUNN was completely accurate with his punches more of a striker then ali nearly every hit pushed alis head back I can't believe its as bad as the elections
If you're going to criticize someone learn how to spell.DEFNSE is the word you were looking for.One more thing concerning DEFENSE,ALI became champion because SO ny Liston couldn't hit him,sounds like good DEFENSE to me.
@@stanleygrayson3186 Your right his spelling is worse than yours but I will fix yours even more! If you're going to criticise someone, learn how to spell...

@@TheMiketyson9 I was looking for this exact comment tho. He was obviously suffering parkinson. Ali in a fifth round is simply not ever tired, look at him in this fight. He barely stands. The time also coincides (this was his last champion defense before the horrible performance led by Parkinson against a much better shaped Holmes), he was definitely already suffering from it, he just didn't know yet
No way no chance Prime Tyson way too overrated Every time he fought someone good he got destroyed he could do all his cool this and that against bad opponents and look good Ali beat greats who did Mike Tyson beat? It's a different era friend Mike Tyson was a monster but he even says it himself sonny made me look like a boy scout Mike is great only in the right situation He won against some greats though and he'd knock anyone in 2024 out but in his time he didn't get to prove himself by beating greats Ali was Faster and more skilled then mike Tyson Ali had more heart more brain And besides boxing wasnt even Ali's greatest asset Do you know how many people were aspired from Ali compared to let's say Tyson fury?
That's because ur thinking is illogical. You are thinking prime tyson vs this Ali. This is an old Ali. Prime tyson vs the Ali in the second liston fight? Tyson doesn't land.
@@TheMiketyson9 You're just demonstrating to the comment section you don't know Ali. Go watch all his fights against Frazier, the 2 against Liston , the one against Foreman, the one against Lyle, Cleveland Williams etc etc and tell me if by fifth round he was already that bad
He definitely wasn't slow, just slower than his peak. This was probably one of his last really good fights. He was in decent shape, could move far more than he would be able to after '76 and could let it rip when he smelled blood in the water or got mad.

Ali was just giving him his 15 minutes of fame.
Richard was dunn after round 4.
Nice one
😂😂😂
He was dunn before the fight started.
T etc qq
😂😂😂😂
Ali: the King.
😂 Found this on Sunday September 1, 2024 at 2:19 am from RUclips shorts. Enjoyed!🤣
I found it on September 8th
A brave effort by Yorkshireman Dunn, but he was in over his head. 1976 was a busy year for the greatest. 4 title defences and that odd affair against wrestler Antonio Inoki in June. Just a month after the Dunn contest.
That Inoki was one of the worst things Ali ever ended up being a part of sadly
@@Taimaagreed, greatly damaged his health and footwork/speed. I definitely think he would have been better off not doing the fight, it wasnt even entertaining
I AM IRANIAN AND LIKE ALI VERY VERY UNIMAGINABLE
😮 guy lasted longer than I thought he would,:he gets an A for effort, also courage.
Well he was a paratrooper when fighting.
This was just before Don King took control of the Heavyweight title when champions to defend a title had to fight a Don King fighter
Still greatest entertainer Ali
What is done by Dunn is well done...but in this instance it was undone...but an A for effort and courage...
most people like to say Ali doesnt have knockout punches they are all wrong
Dunn doesn’t have the abilities and power but he gives it everything he’s got and how many better fighters hold back when they should be letting the hands go.
5:54-10:59-11:56-12:15-12:28-15:48-16:03
Nice
5:53
16:16 Ali crazy as hell LOL!!!!
😂 love ali
Ali : are you sure,you wanna go another round?
Dunn : you not gonna beat me again because I'm Dunn.
Dunn got a decent bit of press for his efforts against Ali & it peeved off Joe Bugner who did a number on Dunn in his next fight
Yup, only time Bugner got angry and actually showed some real aggression in a fight.
11:30 What a beautiful combo.
This goes to show you how good Ali was and how much Sting Ali punches had because Richard Dunn had never been knocked down before
Richard had in fact been knocked out in eight previous fights, and so he had been knocked down fairly often. He had most likely been knocked down in a few fights that he managed to win. He had a very rigid stance and was easy to knock down.

الله يرحم الاسطوره محمد علي كلاي 😢
It was a honest performance by dunn
Ali in his prime would have ended Dunn in the first round.
Ali 1st Round KO against Dunn 🗿🗿
Tyson 1st Round KO against Dunn 🔥🔥
He's more of a dancer,but dude,look when he ended Brian London,that dude got hit with the "death by a flurry made out of flurries"
Ehh idk about that. Maybe third. I think the biggest difference if anything really is that Ali would've gotten rocked a good deal less. He took a few heavy hits that prime Ali wouldn't have.
I must admit;
Dunn did an excellent job.
I mean after all;
Its Muhammad Ali .
What I like most about old boxers is that they don't have tattoos. Looking at today's boxers, they are like walking pictures full of bullshit.
tattoes are gay
It's plain to under stand why Dunn thought he could beat Ali he did have something.
Yeah he had a beat down coming
Ali took easy fights in between the serious one's and trained accordingly
Was Dunn the best challenger at the time? Tough guy but looked totally outclassed.
Down goes Dunn! Down goes Dunn!! Sorry, couldn't resist.
dunn tries his best he has the courage, ALI HAD a GOOD TIME WITH HIM JUST WAS WORK OUT
courageous effort by Dunn. Surprisingly Bugner later showed how to dispose of Dunn more effectively
I think he'd have had to kill Dunn to keep him down. He was still wanting to go after the 5th knockdown.
Dunn was a British paratrooper .
@@thecurlew7403 That one sentence tells me everything. Thanks.

LAYLA ALI IS A GOOD GIRL FOR HIS FATHER SHE IS THE WINNER IN THE COMPETE SALAM TO LAYLA
Dunn is DONE!!! Frankenstein.
11:52 predicted exactly what Ali was going to do.
Yes he's Dunn alrighty
Muhammad. Ali. É. O. Melhor. No. Boxi
الحاج محمد علي المسلم رحمه الله ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
they stoped it to fast dunn had a lot left in him.
You'd be a great ref. As it is, Richard has Alzheimers and dementia and he only had two more fights after this.
Back when boxing was a real sport….
Now its a clown show, takes years to promote title fights, these golden era of boxing champions put the titles up often. Great prize fights
Rei. Dos. Reis. Ali
Ali's strategy was clear for every fight, move and box, win on points, if the KO comes take it
Dunn was on something... too obvious...
Murramad. Ali. O. Melhor
The white dude did well. The black dude was lucky to win because he was prancing around like a woke dude
you are wrong no lucky he fought very well
Perhaps you should have gone to university and you would know the black dudes name...
@@pianoblack5885 there's no black dudes at my university. It's all Asians.

The first body shot by Ali finally
@@shadicalplayz8932 It's like homie was allergic to them
Dunn n dusted.
Bunn n busted
Big lumberjack, half man half animal SAGITTARIUS ……. Look at the big White boy,.
Why in heaven's name Ali have to taunt his opponents? He had a very nasty streak.
You answered your own question.
Eh, yes and no. Yea, he could be nasty at times, but a lot of that was purely tactical. He did it to get in his opponents heads and get them so frustrated that they would get desperate and make mistakes. The biggest evidence of that would be his fight against Foreman. He was actually friends with a lot of these guys outside the ring.
Straight rights do even more damage when the opponent is rushing in like an angry bull.
It's a nasty game
علی روح یک پروانه ❤
Always a gracious winner, Ali.
Except against Foreman, who he really feared.
Richard could have won if he had not lost. In this match he is still second and Ali first

Come on mate. He'd been KO'd eight times before this fight.

Same here..lol
Coke era
All talk and blah blah . I think Tyson prime would crush him .
No way no chance
Prime Tyson way too overrated
Every time he fought someone good he got destroyed he could do all his cool this and that against bad opponents and look good
Ali beat greats who did Mike Tyson beat?
It's a different era friend
Mike Tyson was a monster but he even says it himself sonny made me look like a boy scout
Mike is great only in the right situation
He won against some greats though and he'd knock anyone in 2024 out but in his time he didn't get to prove himself by beating greats
Ali was Faster and more skilled then mike Tyson
Ali had more heart more brain
And besides boxing wasnt even Ali's greatest asset
Do you know how many people were aspired from Ali compared to let's say Tyson fury?
....don't think so....waaay to savvy for Tyson.
That's because ur thinking is illogical. You are thinking prime tyson vs this Ali. This is an old Ali. Prime tyson vs the Ali in the second liston fight? Tyson doesn't land.
All the fights are fixed

No he is in shape
