Note to future editors[edit]

I would request future editors of this WP page to consider incorporating material about how this fight influenced the boxing culture in Indonesia and neighboring countries, and also in the Netherlands.I have given one reference pertaining to this in the main article. Since the fight took place in Indonesia, and since Lubbers was Dutch, many online articles pertaining to this fight that i came across were not in English. For instance: http://www.ad.nl/dossier-bokslegende-muhammad-ali-overleden/lubbers-ook-ali-kon-mij-niet-knock-out-slaan~af091454/ , http://www.nu.nl/sport-overig/2716466/echt-pijn-heeft-ali-me-niet-gedaan.html and http://www.rtlnieuws.nl/sport/algemeen/rudi-lubbers-bokste-tegen-ali-mijn-insteek-was-overleven Soham321 (talk) 13:59, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
