I never met him, didn't know where he lived but we used to shout Muhammad Ali !Muhammad Ali! so far away from United States here in Zambia, Africa. He was really the greatest of all time because even his funeral spoke so

Lols. At 4:10 Mr Frazier pulls his trousers down to cover his high heels. I'm surprised Mr Ali didn't go to town on that but he was too busy talking😆
I love how Ali was just lowkey fucking with him for the entirety of every single video

It’s so nice to see dick cavett treat Ali like a friend more than a god. Dick was so natural and charismatic. He really did love his time with Ali and you could tell.

No man is or was or ever will be anything like a god. If gods existed it would be like comparing a universe to a microbe.
This is absolute gold, I hope we never lose these kind of moments from memory. Very different world we live in now.

Cavett is very awkward and cringe. He was a horrible host that really was forcing conversations.
Ali is literally the most magnetic person ever. You can't not watch him.

True. I even watched him boxing.
Met Muhammad in Italy in 1986. Lovely man, sat with his family jus opposite us in a restaurant by the beach. I went over and said hello, and he couldn’t of been so kind. Gave me an autograph without even asking. His wife was so gracious too. R.I.P
There will never be another Ali. People with better records, better skills and more power in the ring each division in each era but none of them ever had 1% of the charisma of Ali
I liked all Ali’s poetry and his intelligence and compassion he showed other fighters

I don’t often comment on KZread, but what Ali said about kids using their brain to get a job teared me up, very wise and kind to know that his own good luck and hard work wouldn’t work for others, as well as not fucking up people who were in a bad way
I was lucky enough as a young child to meet him at a party at a party in Detroit. He was so wonderful and kind. What an amazing person in so many ways. Truly the greatest.

Happy 80th Birthday to GOAT. Love from Hyderabad India. 17th January 2022. Respect.
My god the way Joe picks the host up so effortlessly is amazing. I'm female but it literally looks like he dragged Cavett up by his groin at one point (he didn't look in pain) but that must have hurt or been uncomfortable . Frazier seems to be holding him in the air one handed at one point. Joe Frazier is my favourite boxer ever and It just shows the power he must have had in those punches against Ali that he can hold I'm guessing a 12 stone man up one handed
We need more of MUHAMMAD ALI

I’m lucky to have known Ali since he fought Foreman. (Not in person, I wish!). My big brothers and big cousins knew him since he fought Liston. Thank God for videos, I got to see his vids since he was 14. Beautiful, fun, exciting man. I can watch him talk all day. Also Like a work of Art in the ring. Poetry in motion. My favorite Celebrity ever! There’ll never be another one. Never.
Ali took tO Joe “I learn some new trick”with expression on Ali’s face 🤣🤣🤣.. Ali & Joe u are the King 👑👑i love you champ🌹🌹
Two absolute gentle (pun intended) giant ……and what an amazing human beings these two legends.
Ali was the Greatest. Cavett was a very good and entertaining interviewer.
Damn i love Alis humor - especially the poem about his salary to beeing on the show.
I wish there was more black man like him
Let’s be friends for one minute just to get him 😂😂😂😂😂
Its hard to believe that God took Ali voice at his age of 38-40.

Ali was hilarious, a natural comedian.
¡Muchas gracias por compartir esta entrevista! ¡Las peleas que tuvieron Muhammad Ali y Joe Frazier fueron de las mejores de todos los tiempos! ¡Admirables personalidades y fueron amigos! ¡Dios los bendiga donde quiera que estén! ¡Saludos desde México!
Aren`t we lucky to have youtube to be able to see this gold
I love this man... I love Dick Cavett!!!
1:20 he made another prophecy that came true... What a lightened man GOAT
i wish I was born around that time. Ali was a master at selling the fight🤣🤣
That was so entertaining!!!
Title should mention Joe Frazier, he is a BIG DEAL "Best of Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier"
When Ali said when he knew the other guy was basically beat, he'd go light. That's a good man right there! If only these fools in the street stopped beating on someone who is already beat! Follow the champs wisdom if you respect him, whether you're a man or a woman.
This brings me a smile to my face, I like when they both hold him up like hes nothing
Pure class from Dick Cavett
Before my time but what a great show.
Ali, as usual is credible.
Joe was the most stylish dresser in the boxing scene. Fashionista!
Joe and Ali 💯 great men ! 👍
Wish my Dad would’ve told me what Ali just said… Damn 😜
'The last time I saw this move was at the zoo. What else? ' 😂😂
Ali: it’s embarrassing the price on the cheque. Cavette: yes it is particularly the 92 cents
ALI! ALI!! ALI!!! 😎✊👊🍁 And Smokin Jo! ✊👊 RIP 😔
The WWE learned a lot from Muhammad Ali.
Please post the 3rd Bobby Fischer interview from after he won the world championship!

Was surprised how tall Joe Frazier appears in this show Among the many big tall heavyweights Joe often looked inches shorter than in the ring ......but in this and other interviews he s a tall strikingly handsome man 👌😲👏
Ali reminds me a lot of Bruce Lee. amazing philosophy
الله يرحمه🤲
have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like the other videos.
Wow good tele
2:02 - There it is lol. I heard that line in the George Foreman movie coming out, but i swear he said it to Fraizer.
Great advice at 5:30
❤❤❤❤❤
The best bit was the last when he winding Joe up but he isn't serious
@14:00 Ali knew how to promote a fight, bringing his special sparring partner 6,000 miles from around the world Gorilla Jones, funny and creative

Joseph William Frazier (12 de enero de 1944, Beaufort, Carolina del Sur, Estados Unidos - f.

Fue profesional desde 1965 hasta 1976, aunque volvió para un combate en 1981 enfrentando a Floyd Cummings.
