Name: Muhammad Ali History of Muhammad Ali Boxing CareerOn January 17, 1942 the largest sporting legend of the twentieth century was born in Louisville, Kentucky. When Odessa Clay and her husband Cassius Marcellus looked humbly at their small son on this winter day in Louisville they didn't dare to dream that the six and one half pound human being they held in their arms would one day be the heavyweight champion and one of the most admired men of the world.The "Greatest of All Time," Ali had a good idea of what he was talking about. He became the first man to win the heavyweight title three times and revolutionized the sport by introducing a fighting technique that went against many of the game's sacred tradition.As Cassius Clay, he won a light heavyweight gold medal at the 1960 Olympics and began his climb to the heavyweight crown. On the way up he beat Billy Daniels, Archie Moore, Doug Jones and Henry Cooper.In 1964, he challenged the outwardly strong Sonny Liston for the heavyweight title. A major underdog, Clay indeed "Shocked the World" by forcing Liston to retire on his stool after the sixth round. After the fight Clay announced that he accepted the tradition of Islam and changed his name to Muhammad Ali. Ali was both arrogant and charismatic and generated a large range of emotions from those who loved him and hated him. He often predicted the round in which he would win and wrote poetry describing how he would defeat opponents. So brilliant and so fast was Ali that he was able to box while holding his left hand by his side and often pulled straight back to avoid punches, two of the game's key sins. Nonetheless, he employed the best jab in boxing and had hand speed similar to a welterweight.Then in 1967, Ali, citing his religious beliefs, refused induction into the U.S. Army. He was arrested, had his boxing license suspended and stripped of the heavyweight title. He was inactive from March 22, 1967 to October 26, 1970, which many feel were his best years. With Ali gone, Joe Frazier tore through the division with devestating knockouts and earned the title of heavyweight champion. Ali returned in 1970 with wins over Jerry Quarry and Oscar Bonavena, setting up a showdown between Ali and Frazier. Both men were unbeaten and while Frazier earned his heavyweight title in the ring, Ali proclaimed himself the 'peoples' champion and that Frazier must beat him to become undisputed king of the division. He did just that. In what is still called "The Fight of the Century," Frazier dropped Ali in the 15th round and won a undisputed decision. Ali regained the heavyweight crown in 1974 much the way he at first captured the title, by slaying a giant. George Foreman was considered unbeatable and the 32-year-old Ali was given slight chance to beat him. The fight was held in Kinshasa, Zaire and Ali engaged the now famous Rope-A-Dope to tire Foreman out before stopping him in the eighth round.
