- The bout is over. It has been a very, very close fight. Ken Norton goes back to his corner. Muhammad Ali is not sure whether or not he won this fight. He needs it for a match with George Foreman. Ken Norton is awaiting the decision. Ali is the winner.
- See, right now, it was hard to see, but Foreman just hit him with a hard punch. Foreman shook him up. He's out on his feet. Right now, Norton's in a dream world.
- Well, listen, Champ. Does it bother you to know that Foreman knocked him out and you only went the distance?
- No, it don't bother me.

- Well, what are they?
- He's never really been hit hard or knocked down, and never went over five or ten good rounds to test his endurance.

- You want to keep running until your legs are pained. Until you're going to die, you're going to fall out. You've got to run until your stomach feels like it's going to burst. Until your heart starts pounding.
