That's one of the better explanations I've seen of a slice of Ali's style!

Hey Gang
More videos to come.
I had severe arthirtis in both hips during the filming of all these videos.
Had one replaced in Dec, next one scheduled in June.
Looking forward to doing better demos.

Awesome!
Amazing how such a subtle change can create a massive difference in reach
Ali looks almost untouchable during his jogging circle!
Coach is showing how narrow stance gains 5~ inches of reach, and the one-footed technique can reach another 5~.
It's important to get back out of range (or otherwise stay evasive) quickly when throwing an extended strike like this, since the stretching jab is exposing your head.
Ali's footwork and stamina played directly into this.
Notice how Ali looks much more mortal when he's fatigued and can't keep up the jogging circle pattern.
* Oh yeah, also remember Ali's "lean back" defense? Another game of inches, combined with this already powerful tactic. Without training, I can only lean back a few inches, but combined that means abusing these body mechanics creates an additional FOOT of space compared to a squared-up opponent.
Ali's most dominating performances were against these slower methodical fighters

Could you explain, even when moving backwards Ali was capable of throwing a heavy punch.

Awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing ;-)

That's a true student of fighting to be able to beak down how Ali made the jab much more than just a "Set Up" punch the average boxer and even trainer thinks it is.

i saw a video ali running backwards while punching..he makes opponent want to chase him and punish them. Same also on the rope. So hard to master hes style.

Also add that Ali had long reach already compared to most other heavyweights.

Watching this video gives you the secret behind Ali's jab connection and movement during jab contact, extremely useful for mastering this style but lets be honest, are you really gonna master it?
