ANGELO DUNDEE'S work as a cornerman
in two of Muhammad Ali's matches were
legendary. On June 18,1963, in London, Ali
was outboxing Henry Cooper until he
bounced off the ropes and was nailed with
a tremendous left hook in round four. Ali
went down and arose hurt. The bell then
rang ending the round. So hurt.was Ali, that
it was questionable whether the one minute rest
between rounds would allow him sufficient time
