Four actors \u2014 Dennis A. Allen II, Roger Casey, Femi Olagoke and Jonathan Swain \u2014 alternate as Tyson and Ali, taking turns trading blows that, at least to my untrained eye, looked pretty realistic.<\/p>\n<p>Amazing physical specimens all, with eye-popping pecs and biceps, they trained at the famed Gleason\u2019s Gym to emulate the champions\u2019 fighting styles. And that\u2019s not all they imitate, as they utter lines straight from the heavyweights\u2019 repertoires.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s ludicrous for these mortals to even attempt to enter my realm,\u201d Tyson says in his jarringly childish voice. \u201cEverybody\u2019s got a plan till they get hit in the mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"connatix-outstream-video\">\n<div class=\"single__content entry-content m-bottom \">\n<p>Ali has loftier ambitions: \u201cI\u2019m not just a winner in boxing or my stand on the draft. I\u2019m a winner in the movement that I follow for my people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All the while, a ref (Dave Shelley) moves small see-through screens around the ring, showing a continuous flow of archival footage. At times, the images from a fight are superimposed over the actors as they strike the exact same poses. The technical challenges of syncing live action with sound and video must have been daunting.<\/p>\n<p>Farrington divides the hourlong show into eight rounds organized around loose themes: \u201cBeauty and Brutality\u201d for Round 3, \u201cEndurance\/Strategy\u201d for Round 6, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>All told, though, there isn\u2019t much new insight about either boxer. Rather than a connection, we watch parallel paths.<\/p>\n<div id=\"trxppp230530_1\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/01\/tysonali.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1200\" alt=\"Legendary heavyweights meet at last in 'Tyson vs. Ali'\" \/><\/div>\n<p>Still, the show\u2019s impressive to look at, and it\u2019s affecting to hear the boxers quote promoter Don King\u2019s line about making them rich \u2014 because when they were poor, \u201cthere wasn\u2019t nothing to rob.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"wpcom-liveblog-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div data-component=\"floatingShare\">\n<div class=\"floating-share-wrap single__floating-share opaque attached\">\n<div class=\"floating-share sharedaddy\" data-component=\"socialShare\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dozen years ago, we saw an explosion of music mashups \u2014 in which two different songs were combined to create a catchy Frankenhit.
