The Legend: Unstoppable Force
.
.
.
Muhammad Ali dodges 21 punches in 10 seconds, 1977 during an exhibition match for his fans. He was slightly out of shape and rusty at 35 years old. His opponent, an 18-year-old future talent known as Michael "Dynamite" Dokes, gained national recognition through this event. During the exhibition, Ali entertained the crowd with his playful antics, slipping Dokes' punches while also providing glimpses of Dokes' potential. Notably, Dokes later achieved an impressive heavyweight record of 53-6-2.

Although the bout was originally scheduled for only three rounds, it turned out to be much more exciting and engaging than a typical fluff exhibition fight. Despite Ali's advanced age, often regarded as the greatest fighter of all time, he demonstrated that he could still keep up with a young, hungry opponent. As the footage of the match shows, Ali even managed to make Dokes appear somewhat foolish at times.
