464:. Dunn, despite fighting in a spirited fashion, found himself seriously outmatched by Ali in power and technique, being knocked down several times by the American champion, who clearly realized the un-equalness of the competition in his favour and began to land carefully timed and weighted punches to stun Dunn but minimize the chance of physical injury to him as the fight went on. At the 2:05 minute mark in the fifth round Dunn went to the canvas for the final time and the referee stopped the match in a technical knock-out, with Ali playing to the crowd comically windmilling a punch that was coming that would be overwhelming, and to encourage the referee to end the match as having run its course. (This was to be the last knockout Ali achieved in his professional career). 510: 658: 637: 2508: 1802: 2183: 1742: 1012: 1610: 2623: 2537: 2489: 2444: 2401: 2360: 2268: 2224: 2142: 2092: 2051: 1966: 1654: 1403: 1096: 905: 687: 186: 1698: 1569: 1528: 1487: 1444: 1362: 1272: 1229: 858: 743: 2556: 2111: 1337: 2312: 2007: 1913: 1869: 1316: 1183: 957: 2582: 1824: 1053: 2644: 2601: 2463: 2422: 2379: 2287: 2243: 2202: 2161: 2070: 2026: 1985: 1934: 1888: 1843: 1783: 1761: 1717: 1629: 1588: 1547: 1506: 1465: 1422: 1381: 1291: 1250: 1204: 1117: 1074: 1031: 978: 926: 877: 827: 808: 766: 708: 2331: 1673: 27: 1158: 1139: 521:
