:03:03
that leaves me exactly one year
to reach my goal.
:03:08
People do say I'm cocky,
some say I need a good whuppin',
:03:13
some say I talk too much,
:03:15
but anything that I say,
I'm willing to back up.
:03:19
The other night I predicted
:03:21
that I would knock out Banks
in four rounds and I did.
:03:26
I knocked out Don Warner
:03:28
and I just annihilated
George Logan in four rounds.
:03:42
(Reporter) 'Close your mouth
and keep it closed.'
:03:45
- That's impossible.
- Keep it closed.
:03:48
I'm the greatest
and I'm knocking out all bums.
:03:51
And if you get too smart
I'll knock you out.
:03:58
(Reporter) 'You'd take him on
before the fight?'
:04:02
Beat him like I'm his daddy.
:04:04
I saw Sonny Liston a few days ago.
:04:06
Ain't he ugly?
:04:11
I'm young, I'm handsome,
:04:14
I'm fast, I'm pretty
and can't possibly be beat.
:04:17
(Commentator) Cassius Clay
goes into the record book
:04:20
with Corbett, Tunney and Braddock,
:04:23
bringing off another great upset
in heavyweight history.
:04:27
(Ali) It is befitting that I leave
the game just like I came in,
:04:31
beating a big bad monster
who knocks out everybody
:04:35
and no one can whup him.
:04:37
When little Cassius Clay
stopped Sonny Liston,
:04:40
the man who annihilated
Floyd Patterson twice.
:04:43
He was gonna kill me!
:04:45
But he hit harder than George.
:04:47
His reach is longer,
he's a better boxer
:04:50
and I'm better now than when you saw
that kid running from Sonny Liston.
:04:55
I'm experienced now, professional.
:04:57
Jaw's been broke, been knocked down
a couple of times, I'm bad!
