Round 8 - Although a single punch from Foreman could end the fight and KO Ali, it is the younger champion Foreman who seems most tired. Haves Ali's Rope-a-Dope tactic worked? With just 30 seconds left in the round, Ali unleashes a brutal barrage that brings Foreman down, and out.


The Rumble in the Jungle, October 30, 1974: Ali’s epic battle against George Foreman in the stifling heat of Zaire was one of the most anticipated championship fights ever. Foreman was the reigning world champ, younger than Ali, and a huge favorite. He had demolished both Joe Frazier and Ken Norton, the only two fighters who had beaten Ali at that time. Yet Ali claimed to have a secret plan for defeating Foreman.
