It's my earliest memory of boxing and my very first and oldest piece of memorabilia is from that fight, an original fight poster.
I'm going to watch the fight tonight.

Re: The Rumble
Beautiful shout, thanks mateRe: The Rumble
Legendary performance from the man himself. There may have been slightly greater boxers than Ali in history but there's never been a greater man in boxing IMO. I might give it another watch tonight n all.

Forty years ago!

).
I cannot believe it was that long ago.

Re: The Rumble
At the time, I believed Foreman would have won the rematch. But after the Jimmy Young-Foreman in 1977, I realized that Ali would have won the rematch.

Re: The Rumble
Damn, you guys are much older than me ...
I'm sure watching the video of the fight doesn't replicate the event like it was for the people at the time. It's like we can see what happened, but we can't feel it. Hopefully boxing can get to a place where the entire world would be buzzing for a fight ... umm ... I think that Manny/Floyd would probably have been like that in 2010. Sucks.
