Ali & London
MUHAMMAD ALI vs. BRIAN LONDON, ko 3
Aug. 6, 1966/London, England


  A 15-1 underdog, London spoke for all longshots when he admitted that he didn't expect to beat Ali, but thought he could "go the distance." The champ carried the flabby challenger for two rounds before dismantling him in the third. "The only way I'd ever fight that man again," London said after the kayo, "is if he had a 50-pound weight tied to each foot."
