Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard & Mike Tyson @ The Arsenio Hall Show 1990 

That host is so good man. The way he just sits on that couch and blends in to make them feel comfortable. No hot topics and nothing scripted but all witty and fun. Unlike today's hosts.

Mike knows his history. He also knew 100% that Ali fought Cleveland Williams in 1966 but he still asked Ali to confirm if it was 1966. That's respect for your elders.

3:25 Ali didn't hesitate one bit. "Tyson." That had to make Mike feel amazing

Ali's personality and quick wit never left him...love this

Tyson is just gazing at Ali like he's truly his hero .

Mike's standing there like a young kid admiring his biggest idol.

Tyson looked so much like a 10yrs old fanboy whenever he was near Ali. Loved the respect and honour he had for Ali.

Look how humble mike was in front of Ali.. Goosebumps!

Ali is the only guy that I ever saw next to Tyson that made Tyson feel like the second best fighter in the room.

This is the most luckiest talk show ever to have that kind of guests...

This is the first time I see Tyson acting like happy kid seeing his idol… huge respect to both Ali and Tyson … those 2 are legends and their stories will continue to be told forever!

Arsenio did an amazing job moving the ali interview along smoothly and asking good questions and giving Ali time to respond and creating a smooth back and forth despite Ali’s obvious effects of Parkinson’s

Three legends together... The greatest, the fastest and the scariest!!!

Mike Tyson was only aggressive when ppl treated him like a monster, he always honored older boxers and calmed Ali the greatest

Rest In Peace and Power and Paradise Champion 🏆🏆 Miss U Champ 🏆🏆🏆😢😢😢😢

Even today I miss Arsenio Hall’s show. He was the best❤️

I like arsenio is patient at listening and waiting on the champ to speak

Tyson looks like a little kid sitting there with the BIGGEST smile on his face getting to sit and talk with his idol, Ali.

I didn't know how Tyson and Ali first met. But thank goodness for RU-vid so history can not be lost

‘Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, he is the best heavy, that we will ever see’ - the greatest Mohamed Aliiiiiiiiiii ! (I ‘show do’ miss him). RIP. Champ RIP.

It is carzy how Tyson get so calm and normal in front of Ali while he was so intimidating in the 90s. Showing great respect for his idol. RIP Ali.

Even with a messed up brain he still has that trash talking mentality. GREATEST OF ALL TIME

"He hit me so hard I saw my kin folk in Africa'...What a classic line. The man never lost his wittiness.

Good to see him being so fondly remembered by Ray and Mike. Tough to listen to Ali speak so slowly for a man who was never lost on words. Wicked disease took him away little by little. Great interview!!

So sad watching Ali suffer,great man and greatest of all time Rest in peace!

This is so touching to watch especially how respectful Tyson was amongst these legends. Tyson really had a bad break, but he is also a legend as well!

The aura that Muhammad Ali carries is u match able. The way all 3 of these men look at him, they are in awe of him. Sugar Ray Leonard especially, idolised him its written across his face. This man is truly the G.O.A.T in all aspects, never to be replicated.

There's never going to be another Muhammad Ali but we can learn from him his teaching and lessons are in his words and actions

“I didn’t want your hand I wanted your wallet” 😂😂 Ali came up with the funniest things to say R.I.P Goat

“Hit me so hard, he jarred my kinfolk in Africa.” I miss him so much...he was and still is THE GREATEST!!!! RIP Champ!

The secret about Ali was that he had a Lion's heart against any opponent he faced, and psychologically he won his fights before he stepped into the ring.

Three legends, Kudos to Arsenio for giving us the pleasure.

There will never be another like Ali,RIP my brother.

Even his enemies and opponent's admired him. That's what made him ALI.

The ultimate warrior!Lost 4 odd years when he would have peaked came back and still made history with the strength of his personality,his unrelenting indomitable spirit and his conviction!My all time hero!Love you champ !You are truly GOAT!

People born today will never appreciate the greatness of Ali. He was a man that transcended sport like none before or after him ever will.

Watching Ali, the greatest EVER speak in a slurred speech, it breaks my heart. I love the man and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Thank you so much for your inspiration Champ, rest in love.

I can't believe Ali was 48 in this. He looks rather young here.

The two Boxing Great of all time with the Greatest of all time 'Muhammad ali 💯🥊🥊

I miss Muhammad Ali, the Greatest. May he live with eternal life and infinite love, the Greatest.

Ali:”If I fought you I’d name you the squirrel” “Some people look like animals” 🤣🤣 He’s the king of roasting all throughout his career

When asked if he had any bodyguards, Ali, starts counting with his fingers in a whisper making the interviewer & the audience to expect the number to be dozens. The Champ's answer, one. God!

So sad the greatest of all time had to go down like this. He was so charismatic and a great talker. Literally gave his health for the sport. R.I.P Champ.

To see all these guys together just having a good time. Just being themselves and sharing memories. This is a beautiful thing. And rare. And for Muhammad Ali to show his strength even with all he's dealing with. A golden heart. A good guy all the way around. Much respect to them all. Peace.

I love the respect Tyson has for Ali he is making sure not to use trash words

He'll always be the champ. His speech may be slowed, but his wit was still quick. "He hit me so hard it shook my kinfolk in Africa." lol The Greatest. RIP, Champ.

When Mike shakes his head in disbelief, awe and smiles... you know that particular person is something else ^^

I met him and he was truly a great man - RIP

This was in 1989. Tyson was still HW Champion at this time

It's funny to see how cute and adorable Mike is when he is not in the ring. When he is in the ring, he is a Godzilla.

Its almost 2022 and im still watching Muhammed Ali interview after all these years

3 legends and all time greats in one interview. What more to ask for. The host is excellent in blending in. Looked like 4 friends chit chatting about the world. So cool

Only Arsenio could bring these legends together.

This is actually in 1989.. Tyson was still undefeated at this point, he had his first loss in February of 1990

Ali just lit up whatever room he was in whenever he walked in. Very flamboyant, colorful and bright.

A hundred years from now people will still say that Ali was the Greatest of All Times.

Ali was a warrior! Spoke his mind nd didn't back down from nobody. Sad to see him gone. Rip!!!

"By any means, would you care for a few more of these uppercuts?" 😂😂😂😂😂

"If I fought you, I would name you too Squirrel" - god what a legend you are Sir... Couldn't control laughing... You are the best

This was so moving to me. Three legends together chillin and chattin on Arsenio. Ali battling parkinsons and smiling through it with the same wit and charm he always had, while the other two legends tell him how he was their inspiration. I don't know what else to say, thank you for sharing this special moment

This is a very memorial and beautiful moment three legends in one room

Lmfao mike at 10:54 "I cant imagine ray talking trash, by any means would you like a few more of these uppercuts?" 😂😁😂😁

Had the once in a life chance crossing paths with Mr Ali. He saw my gaze as I froze. Came over to me and said hello young man you Ok? I was speechless! He hugged me and walked on!

This clip had me smiling from the beginning to all the way to the end. A sense of humor is “quality”.

How can such a beautiful human being be such a ferocious warrior? Heart Heart Heart. Heart is everything!

Ali's intelligence and humour is Still there, Parkinson's disease just muffled it😔

Wish I could have shook this man's hands I wish I could have met Mr. Ali

I'm now 55 years old. I was a youngster in the 1970's.. The best memories that I have from that time is sitting with my Dad watching boxing. It really was the golden age of the sport.

"Every head must bow, every tongue must confess, the Greatest Of All Time" -Mike Tyson

This is an exceptional collaboration. Every member relaxed, on form, happy, with natural flow. Lovely moment in time.

I couldn't even imagine standing a few feet away from those three. All three influenced my heavily growing up. I'm 51 now and spent my whole life in combat sports starting with wrestling and boxing when I was 15 years old. I've lost count of how many times I shadowboxed and mimicked their techniques or would spar and saw to my sparring partners (in a fun way) something that Mike, Ali, or Ray would say. When I was 15 I was in awe of Ali and Ray. They were next level. When I got older and Mike started boxing, he had that "aura" too that he mentions. All 3 of them had aura as did many great boxers of old like Willie Pep, Jack Johnson, Ricardo Lopez, Rocky Marciano, Sandy Saddler, Julian Jackson, Joe Louis, Hagler, RJJ, Sonny Liston, Benny Leonard, Jack Dempsey, etc.

the way he talks in the later years breaks my heart he was such a legend 😭 rip muhammad ali ❤️

When Tyson said he wasn't even born, Ali wanted to punch him for making him feel old

He sounds like Don Corelone from The Godfather when he speaks

The Tyson joke "by any means would you care for some more of these uppercuts" should be highlighted more 😂😂😂

Today's anchor and TV host should learn something from this guy. Simply outstanding nothing scripted

Mike Tyson showed great respect and humility in the presence of the G.O.A.T

Sonny Liston, smokin Joe Frazier.... AND MY FIRST WIFE😁😁😁 Ali the greatest of all times

7:06 Ali was so impressed by Tyson response...it's dope to watch legends admire legends..

You can tell that Mike Tyson truly is a fan of boxing. His knowledge of the sport and its history is to be respected. People often take that aspect of Mike Tyson for granted because he was so dominant in the sport being an absolute wrecking ball. But he is highly intelligent and a scholar in his craft.

I miss Arsenio, he was a great interviewer, that didn't interrupt a lot and he always showed his guests respect.

Damn! Arsenio conducted an interview with THE GOATS

Arsenio was by far the greatest late nite show ever! My pop use to let me stay up late to watch and man it was always amazing. These 3 made one of the best interviews ever seen

Seeing Mike reacting like this is very Heart warming, i mean, he is one of the hardest puncher of his time, and when he was siting there, he was like a child, with light and admiration in his eyes 😊. Ali was an inspiration and a role model for so much people 🤗 May your soul rest in peace champ 🙏 thanks for all you shared with us ❤🙇

The fact he was feeling the effects boxing had on him & how long he lived after this...true warrior! Just sayin!

Tyson has such a high boxing iq

I can watch this over and over again. Rest Peacefully Amongst the Elders Champ!

Arsenio does a fantastic impression. I love watching clips of people and their Ali impressions in front of Ali himself. He looks on so adoringly and flattered. Love it. The greatest.

Mike Tyson has always been an eloquent speaker just listen to when he says “every head must bow every tongue must confess that he is the best (referring to Muhammad Ali)

I've seen this at least 50 times since high school and I never stop smiling, I can't get enough of these four 🐐 on one show.

The king never forgotten! So sunshine beautiful

October 26, and i still watch 2 of my favorite, Rest in peace Ali, may Allah SWT bless you

I'm commenting on this video from 2014, it's now Dec. 2020. I'm 74 years old, and I remember the gentlemen like it was yesterday. Ali was the greatest. Sugar Ray was the fastest. Iron Mike was on another level. I am from Albany NY. Mike and Cus were legends around here. I was saddened while watching Mike fight his personal demons. I still love to hear his explanation of boxing history.

Muhammad Ali is the legend all other legends look up to. No other athlete like him and never will be. One of a kind.

I wish I could go back and watch this live. It makes me all choked up inside.

Three of the greatest of of all time together in one place. Awesome interview by Arsenio! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

When Mike spoke about Ali being the greatest ever, it sounded like his voice cracked.

This is just beautiful. Honestly everyone in this video is a great person and very well spoken.

even though hes not with us, it's always entertaining watching all his clips.. RIP 🐐 ALI.. the irony that all he wanted was for everyone to love and respect each other but instead the whole world doesnt matter what race, they pour their love out for this man and how much he changed the world

Sugar Ray is so darn cute and you can tell he loves Ali so much.
