In what was originally a highly anticipated bout, boxing legend Muhammad Ali took on Japanese wrestler Antonio Inoki back in 1976.
Let’s just say the fight didn’t live up to expectations.
It lasted the full 15 rounds, but the crowd, when you watch it, was at first bored, and then turned hostile. Ali and Inoki never really got into a good flow, and there were a lot of faux slide kicks (Inoki) and half-baked jabs (Ali) thrown.
The match was eventually called a draw, as the two fighters embraced. That at least made for a pretty cool moment.
