Just in case people believe your nonsense headline; He interviewed the boxing icon four times during his career, and described him as "the most extraordinary man I ever met, without a single shred of a doubt".
@orangesurfboard2238 - what is refreshing about Parkinson is he didn't jump on the bandwagon with Ali
he wasn't afraid to ask important questions or critique 'the Greatest'
Parkinson also stated on all 4 occasions he lost to Ali... Parkinsons words
@@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1 Well said, and I might add that the same could be said about every interview with all guests who appeared on his show, for that matter - never shirked the awkward question.
Wow really dude!!!
That is right
It’s a great disservice to the public and Mr. Parkinson to have this erroneous headline.
Not at all . Parkinson wrote he didnt like Ali and if you actually listen to this video the first minute its clear Parkinson didnt like him and disrespected him.
Parkinson was a proud man and didnt like Ali outwitting him
@@Anthony-TesticaliThat's utter nonsense.
He is on record saying that Ali was the most remarkable man he ever met.
And to Ali as well, one of the most remarkable human beings of our time!
Click bait title. Parkinson was clearly very fond of him.
I have seen Michael Parkinson speak of Ali many times. He has always expressed nothing but awe and admiration. That headline sucks. Do better.
That is right. Ali and parkinson respected each other
He was friends with him. He literally says in the interview i didnt like him at first but hes a good friend.
Parkinson is 100% right when he says the people who were around Ali have a lot to answer for. I “met” him - and his family/entourage-towards the end of his life, in London, at a private event for the American Olympic team shortly before the 2012 Olympics started. It was clear he shouldn’t have even been there- he should have been resting and enjoying his final days. Instead, he was carted around in a chair, unable to speak or interact with anyone. The memory still haunts me.
R.I.P Mr. Parkinson a legendary interviewer. Your likes we will not get again 😢
@@buzz5695Please dear fellow. Now is not the time for jokes.
@@buzz5695
Neil Oliver is a highly intelligent man. Russell who? 🤔
you shouldn't have the title , he didn't like ali at first but liked him very much after. How can you keep a straight face and make this title.
When he interviewed Ulrika Johnson during the time of her affairs it was like watching a worried father talking to his daughter. Ulrika looked so vulnerable and he was so caring if she had cried there and then you knew he would’ve put his arm around her. He wasn’t an interviewer to the stars, he was a friend and they like us, will miss him.
You couldn't beat him in an interview. Because he was too smart for the BBC
Ali was always very condescending and got away with it for certain reasons. John Lennon put him in his place.
No he wasn't as clever as made out.
@@YortOK 🤔 Is this the same John Lennon that said it was ok for the Beatles to like little Richard as well as Elvis because he was a N word?
The title is clickbait so well done TM 😅 I have to take exception to Parky here when he says Ali wasn't educated well he was a black man born in America during the pre civil rights era I would think it was very common to be uneducated and black, but boy did he show how intelligent he was, graduated from the uni of life with top honours mate, and did it occur to parky that maybe Ali deliberately failed the army test considering he didn't want to serve?? I think Parky had a bit of brain fart there but I do agree that Ali became a much nicer person once he left NOI and joined the universal religion of Islam and understood that being Muslim is about loving your fellow man whatever the skin colour.
Muhammad Ali was brought up in middle class family- much more comfortable than the likes of Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Joe Frazier, etc, and would have received a better education than them. Ali was a genius with words but might not have been 'school smart', like a lot of intelligent people.
He loved all colors? Dont be silly hes 1 of the only black celebrities to openly talk about his hate for the white man? He should know more than anyone else people now arent to blame for 400 year old slavery, islam took African slaves more than any white did in history
Muslim religion is about loving ur fellow muslim not ur fellow man. It is a religion of hate.
He joined Islam yes. Then cheated on every wife he had, which was like 5.
Even getting a 16 teen year old pregnant when he was in his 30s and married
The headline is clickbait. Parkinson didnt dislike Ali or say any of that.
Albert Einstein scored terribly in his IQ tests atschool, he failed his college entrance examinations!
many people dont know about that. but yes its true.
Title's OK. He didn't like him. He ADORED him.
Scrolling the comments here is sadly predictable:
'Ali was perfect. How dare Parky say that after he died etc'
SPARE ME
A few things to point out. Yes, the title is somewhat clickbait insofar as it doesn't tell the whole story - Parkinson also called Ali one of the most extraordinary people he met. But it is a matter of record that he didn't like him at first
MORE IMPORTANTLY
This blind unthinking adulation of Ali is pathetic
FACTS
- Ali was a segregationist whose views on 'separating the races' wasn't much different from the KKK.
- Ali publicly opposed miscegenation at a time when mixed-race couples faced very real discrimination.
- Ali was a member of the Nation of Islam, a highly polarising group, very much on the margins of mainstream black America.
- Ali treated Joe Frazier shamefully, calling him a stooge of the white establishment, when actually Frazier came from a more hardscrabble background
- Like all black Americans Ali likely did face discrimination but his so-called 'slave name' Cassius Clay was given by his black parents! In honour of a famous 19th Century Abolitionist! Ali was not above embellishing details of his life.
- Ali was arrogant. He often shouted over others in interviews and popularized trash-talking in the sport
These are empirical FACTS but try telling that to Ali's many cult followers and they pounce on you. He was a great athlete for sure and in life he done a lot of praiseworthy charity work. But his racial politics were toxic.
I am pleased MICHAEL PARKINSON did not jump on the bandwagon. Parkinson asked important questions and rightly so. And for that he gets nothing but spite from Ali fans who think MA is above reproach. NO HUMAN BEING IS ABOVE REPROACH!
RIP Parky.
RIP MUHAMMAD ALI. Still love him and his words ❤
Rest in Peace Sir.
“Like looking at an iceberg melting”, God that’s such a sad image. Every time I see an Ali video in the Late 70s I think about it.
Check out the David Frost interview with Ali from the latter 60's. Far superior to the Parkinson show interviews in the 70's and 80's.
Rest in peace to a great man
RIP but nothing 'great' that I can see, unless he really did help some of the kids
I take it you mean Muhammad Ali.
Michael Parkinson is dead now as well
Clickbait title 🤦
He said a million times he was his favourite guest i dont get it
Terribly misleading title!!!!
"Michael Parkinson Didn't Like Muhammad Ali TO BEGIN WITH" - fixed it for you
The title is wrong
Still bitter he lost the argument about race mixing, from the sounds of it.
@thelaw6267 - How did he 'lose the argument' ?
Ali was a segregationist who publicly condemned mixed-race couples at a time when they faced real discrimination
Ali's 'people should stick with their own' mantra was disgusting and actually very polarising at the time
Of course he gets BLIND PRAISE now by people who cannot think objectively
Brother Ali himself changed his own view by leaving the Nation of Islam and becoming Sunni Muslim. Parkinson is entirely right that it wasn't his own viewpoint even at he time he said it.
@@storm1110yes, just like malcolm x.
Did this guy invent Parkinson’s
He said he liked him. ??????
Why the clickbait headline - one of the most misleading. Yes you got me to click but Im also blocking your channel.
Ali was an amazing person - NO ONE like him or will ever be again ----
He said he liked him an awful lot…..4.10….
Parkinson didn't like him because Ali ran laps around him intellectually, that's all it is 😂
No it was Alis's racist views in his early days
@@Ranwolfehe wasn't racist. He was always telling the truth
@@RanwolfeAli didn't want no part of the kalergi plan which Parkinson was promoting for his small hatted masters
Parkinson was a cold bloke. His eyes were cold and expressionless. The perceived king of interview nope not for me.
@TonyMahoneybeats - you are confusing talking over people with being intellectually superior
Ali wasn't that smart and his racial politics were toxic
Michael Parkinson Didn't Like Muhammad Ali...at first.
I always got the impression he really loved, Ali
Meg Ryan didn’t want to buy into the misogynist interviews that female actors were and still expected to perform at. She said ‘ I love the job’ but not the trappings…fair comment. Parkey could have respected that view. He did some great work on that interview he failed. Check out her interview with Ellen. It’s lovely.
Parkinson is too egotistic to accept that Ali exposed him as a hypocrite.
The question is did Ali care for Parkinson.....
@ab6304 - And why should it matter if he didn't?
Ali is not the god a lot of people make him out to be
He was arrogant and spoke over people rather than having a conversation with them
@@WORLD8NSH5KNIGHT1RIP MUHAMMAD ALI ❤.
Talk about him when he was alive, very disrespectful. You made money from the interviews then criticise the hand that fed you. Disappointed in you Michael
but he is saying what he thinks. Should he be a paid liar?
Sell out Rat 🐀
@mmlcarpetcleaning2272 - So you expect him to blindly praise Ali?
Why shouldn't he give his honest perspective? If it was anyone else you wouldn't care.
The flaw in your argument is you think Ali is above reproach. I have news for you. Ali wasn't perfect. He was a segregationist among other things.
Part of being a Hollywood actor is to go on TV to help publicize their latest movie. Meg Ryan had this obligation to be there and be as entertaining as she could. She took the money and failed the obligation on the most important interview show in one of Hollywood's largest markets.
change the headline to this video, stop trying to bait people in. RIP Parkinson
Weird headline.
Parkinson was a horrible bitter man, put in his place. And the more he goes on about him being unintelligent the more he makes himself look stupid
Mary, his wife said about Parky........."When you're drunk You're ugly !.....He sounds bitter in my opinion as a fellow Yorkshireman
@@AlanBoddy-fl2qp what? 😂
A title that shows zero respect.
He failed his army exam coz he wasn't stupid. He didn't want anything to do with the army
It's not like a mainstream channel opening with a bs headline.
He didn't like him at first...misleading title
Do we get a free Parker pen for watching this ?
Well, Mikey - Muhammad Ali is almost universally respected. Whereas 92% of the English speaking world have never heard of you.
Such misplaced pettiness in this comment. Parkinson admired Ali a great deal.
actually this is the first time I am hearing of this Parkinson guy. lol
Michael Parkinson R.I.P . This was his big blooper. He knew that Mohammed had these difficulties and yet he chose to highlight them. That was the problem and really Parkinson should have owned his bad judgement.
Title?
M P def got his dates wrong too, saying first time he intv him was in 2001. I think he must have taken a few punches over the years to make glaring mistakes like that.
He failed to say that schools, and military were racist and held back intelligent blacks.
RIP Parkinson
Nonsense headline.
"I liked him an awful and thought he was a good man" - Parkinson on Ali
this man, whoever he was, probably was suffering from Parkinsons disease and was contagious too. gave ali some lol but poor form to say Ali wasn't intelligent.
Misleading title. 😂
Parkinson is definitely contagious
CLICK BAIT Is one step forward two steps back.
my fighting is for purpose! hehe
ER, misleading headline
Michael Parkinson was a beautiful human being
apparantly not.
Ali was a difficult man obviously.
I don't like Ali either. The only thing I agreed with him on was his decision not to go to Vietnam.
parkinson a legend in his own lunchtime and greatly over rated and he was crap on desert island discs
Parkinson became who he is because of Ali. Why would he say this?
I think you may perhaps be slightly confused here.
@@Arareemote not at all. The world was watching when he interview Ali. This at least we know.
RIP
Because Muhammad couldn’t be put down by you or anyone else didn’t say it when he was alive don’t say it now he is dead being as you didn’t like him why interview him 3xs
@patriciadouglas6281 - Another person who thinks Ali should be blindly praised.
You expect Parkinson to act like a fanboy? To ask him only questions he wanted asked?
Ali was arrogant and not the god he is made out to be by people like you.
Ali made this clown
He's full of hot air in this inteview isn't he. Listing off a hundred reasons why Meg Ryan was 'off'. How about the fact that Parkinson went out of his was to make that interview awkward and painful
Ali the greatest.
Totally agree...very poor wording. 😢
I don't blame him - Ali could be quite obnoxious actually
RIP Michael Parkinson
RIP MUHAMMAD ALI ❤
Parkinson never liked Elvis either.
He couldn't beat Ali Physically or Mentally he was really a joke! 🤣🤣🤣
Parkinson should be ashamed of himself. He spoke nothing but derisory nonsense about Ali, and said a few things he would never have said when he was alive and certainly never gave said to his face.
Yes he disagreed with Ali watch the interviews
@richardweldon2062 - Another person who thinks Ali was above reproach. He wasn't!
Personally I am not interested in praising a segregationist
Racist, segregationist, draft Dodger.
There, how's that?
No one need ever feel ashamed for speaking the truth.
Ali said far more racist things than Donald Trump and yet everyone kisses his feet.
He says initially nit, but then he did like him very much. Why do you lie? For the clicks?
Ironically Ali died of Parkinson`s Disease lololol
RIP Parky
Rip Michael joining Ali in heaven.
only the Lord decides who is in Heaven
Doubt it
Very disappointed that Parkinson should be having a go at Ali without him there. Not nice.
This headline is disgusting, not what he actually said.
'So yer a racist now father'
Wonderful honest interview ☺☺☺☺
nobody likes parkinson
Biggest chat show host ever
blocking this channel because of the title just to obtain a few clicks pathetic
This is click bait !!!!!!
what a hypocrite.....moaned about how he was treated as some poor Northern guy yet happy to make fun of Ali abilities.
Cassius clay was an awful person . A complete bully . Karma came knocking at his door
Lol
same I didn't like Muhammad Ali..he was brutal I hated the sport actually so wasn't much a fan of him...
So you didn’t like him because he was a combat sport athlete?
That’s like not locking and NFL line backer because he hits the ball carrier or opposing quarterback to hard or too violently despite it being his job.
Ali is much greater than him.
I don't even know who he was
Ali was racist
Ali had every reason to be
@@Johnnyhardcore4ever nobody does.
@Dan Perry He wasn't even allowed to eat in restaurant and was treated like a dog just because he was black. Try and imagine that
Ali loved himself and his people. You didn’t like that. Sad that you don’t get it. As soon as a black man doesn’t kiss white feet, he’s racist. GTFOH with that horse crap.
@Johnny Hardcore get over it mate. He called all whites devils. I dont care about him
Ali defined Parkinson But Parkinson als defined Ali
Nah... Ali is the greatest athlete of all time. Parkinson was just another interviewer, a damn good one, but no one defined Ali but Ali. He transcended media and boxing. He was and is a cultural phenomenon that only perhaps Michael Jordan could complete with (with regards to sports of course).
"Michael Parkinson Didn't Like Muhammad Ali | This Morning" This title is blatant clickbait
Clickbait lies. He did like him, generally.
Terrible headline
