The Muhammad Ali Exhibitions Thread

[Bob]

does anyone happen to know when in 1984 the Porter exhibition may have occurred???
And it now sounds as if the Lyle event should indeed be classified as an exhibition.

Sparring

[Caractacus]

Ron Lyle was brought down to Miami Beach Florida and to the Fifth Street Gym,
by CBS-TV, to go 2 three minute rounds with "The Greatest" to show the Television viewers what he had
as far as skills before he turned pro.
That would be called an "Exhibition".

I just knew Ali was going to make a funny remark, about that dude's hair !




-January 1977-

Muhammad Ali vrs The Boston Six

here is the newspaper account

https://bostonglobe.com/sports/1977/01/ ... story.html

here is the video ( of three of 'em anyway)

[Caractacus]

April.16.1977

I remember I saw this live on ABC-TV.
It was originally scheduled to be a bout with Larry Holmes vrs Stan Ward, but that bout was cancelled
due to the tournament scandal, so instead Ali , instead sparred with Jody Ballard and Michael Dokes
( who was 19 and half years old)


December 1977
sheeyatt ,Is that Muammar Gaddafi there in the crowd at 0:26 ?

Who do you think the "Mystery" sparring partner may be ?

Why have you put sparring footage on your exhibition thread?
The 'mystery man' is Maine Miller

A truly outstanding list, Bob. It's very easy to look at such a list and point out a couple of minor things because all the hard work has been done - by you. Bruce Grantham in 1975 could well be Bruce Grandham, a muscled heavyweight who had success in the UK for a while. Boxrec has no record of a Bruce Grantham. Also, Ali definitely boxed an exhibition with Louisville counterpart Greg Page in the 1970s, when Page was a teenage amateur. I vividly remember seeing a photo of it in Boxing News.

This is incredible work, thank you!

Two things jump out at me. First, this can't have done Ali any good when it comes to his later life health problems, especially all those exhibitions at the tail end of his career.

Second, there's a whole load of decent fighters who he didn't fight as a pro that are on this list, such as Merritt, Dokes, Peralta, Tiger Williams, Mercado, Le Doux, Gardner, Page (as per bennie's comment)etc. He really did share the ring with pretty much everyone.

[pound per pound]

does anyone happen to know when in 1984 the Porter exhibition may have occurred???
And it now sounds as if the Lyle event should indeed be classified as an exhibition.

Bob,

Who was the kick boxer who knocked Ali out cold?

[goose 5]

Anybody have any links to articles about Ali's exhibition with Bennie Briscoe in 1971? I can't find a thing in the Jersey papers.
