Larry Holmes by a TKO when Ali could'nt answer the bell for round 11. This however is not quite the same as a genuine knockout where the fighter can not beat the referee's count of 10 after a knockdown. Ali was known as having a very good chin and incredible recuperative powers.

Who is life is rockys based on?
On March 24, 1975, Ali fought Chuck Wepner in Cleveland, a fight that was to inspire the Academy Award winning movieRocky. Ironically, however, it was Ali's opponent who provided the inspiration for history's most famous fictional pugilist. Wepner was a journeyman fighter who had been earning his living as a liquor salesman and security guard. Wepner had been dubbed "The Bayonne Bleeder" and, although he was ranked, he was considered hapless. Wepner, however, trained for two months and although he lost on a technical knock-out in the 15th round, he managed to knock Ali down with a body shot in the 9th. Sylvester Stallone saw the match in person and the concept of RockyBalboa - an unknown club fighter who goes 15 rounds with the heavyweight champion - was born. Heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, the character portrayed by Carl Weathers, was loosely basedon Ali.
