While the fight took place in Japan, it did draw interest in the United States because of Ali's star power. It was declared a draw but Ali suffered major damage to his legs and passed on the press conference to be taken directly to the hospital. It is claimed that this fight had a serious impact on Ali's mobility for the rest of his career and Ali never recorded another knock out win after this match as his decline started very suddenly.
These early forays into MMA did show an U.S. interest in this idea of match style against style, but it wouldn't be until the 1990s that another serious experiment in MMA would take place for American audiences.
