Editorial Review:

Description:
February 25th. 1964 - Miami Beach Convention Center. Boxing fans gathered to watch Sonny Liston, the reigning heavyweight champion, take down a brash young contender the world would soon know as Muhammad Ali. Liston was the 8-1 favorite. No one throught the young upstart would take down the feared champion. They were wrong.

- "I Shook Up the World...."
Poor Sonny Liston. He told his manager, in a moment of relaxation, that in one round he would make Ali pay for his big mouth, or in his own eloquent words: "dust his dome off". One of the lessons Ali taught us is that we can never know what's coming, no matter how certain things seem.

Watch this fight (or slaughter, depending on your perspective) and ask yourself if you have ever seen a human being move as a fast as the young Cassius Clay does in this fight as he shreds the fearsome Liston. I haven't. Each movement of his body happens precisely as he wants it to, and as fast as he wants them to. And all those cute "this was a fix" theories just don't fit with Liston's enraged attempts to. As Ali put it later, "If he wasn't trying to win, he's a better actor than I was." ... Read More

This tape documents the fight between the big ugly Bear Sonny Liston, and a brash young upstart from Kentucky, by the name of Cassius Clay. This tape shows the entire fight between the two combatants. On this night Clay would be the victor and declare that he shook up the world. As you watch this tape, take notice that an 8-1 underdog was out hitting, running, and gunning the unbeatable champion. He jabbed all over body, and head, as the flat footed Liston was an easy target for the butterfly. Even with the impaired site, Ali then known as Clay regiened supreme!

- CASSIUS CLAY BOXES RINGS AROUND THE BEAR
THIS IS THE COMPLETE FIGHT WITH AN EXTENDED RING INTERVIEW OF CLAY. DID I SAY INTERVIEW? I MEANT SPEECH AIMED AT THE HEART OF THE WHITE ESTABLISHMENT. EVERYONE THOUGHT SONNY WAS UNBEATABLE(JUST LIKE FOREMAN 10 YEARS LATER)AND CLAY PROVES THEM WRONG. NOT WITHOUT A ROUGH SPOT THOUGH. WATCH THE 2 ROUNDS WHERE CLAY CAN'T SEE BECAUSE OF THE INFAMOUS FOREIGN SUBSTANCE IN HIS EYES. WATCH THE BODY SHOTS HE GETS HIT BY BECAUSE OF IT. OUCH! BUT CLAY STANDS TALL AND TAKES IT UNTIL HIS VISION CLEARS AND HE CAN ONCE AGAIN "FLOAT LIKE A BUTTERFLY AND STING LIKE A BEE"
