<p>Muhammad Ali, formally known as Cassius Clay, shares his reaction to the fight with Sonny Liston on February 25, 1964 in this post fight interview. He famously declares, &#39;I must be the greatest&#39; and poetically jokes how he beat Liston in seven rounds. Liston and Ali had a rematch on in May 1965 and though Ali was declared the winner it remains one of the most controversial fights in boxing history.</p>
