Presented here is an extremely rare find from the historic 'Thrilla in Manila' bout between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier in this on-site fight poster. Ali won the fight and retained his crown after the 14th round when Frazier's trainer threw in the towel to prevent the nearly blind Frazier from taking an even worse beating. The poster would have been featured at the Araneta Coliseum in the Philippines. Language on the poster reads "BE ONE OF THE 700 MILLION WHO WILL VIEW THIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHT VIA SATELLITE". The poster remains in excellent condition with no blemishes throughout and no creasing. An excellent display piece for any boxing collection.
