Stripped of his Heavyweight title because of a rules violation regarding rematches, Muhammad Ali was scheduled to take on “new” champion Ernie Terrell on March 29, 1966. Terrell backed out (only to be felled by Ali in 1967), but Ali showed up and pummeled unfortunate replacement George Chuvalo. Issued at Chicago’s International Amphitheater for what was originally scheduled as a title bout, this full ticket is autographed by the outspoken champ. Executed in black marker on the front, Ali’s signature shows (“9”) quality. The full ticket is in Ex-Mt/NM condition overall. Slabbed PSA/DNA Authentic.
