1971 The Fight - Muhammad Ali vs Joe Frazier Original Vintage Poster

About the Item

With fantastic artwork by the great Swiss graphic designer and poster artist Celestino Piatti, this brilliant poster was created to promote "The Fight" or "The Fight of the Century" between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. The fight is regarded as the biggest boxing match of all time and one of the largest sporting events ever. Frazier won by unanimous decision, with Ali suffering his first defeat ever. This would begin the all time great trilogy of fights with Ali coming out on top in the following two. This wonderful poster promotes a screening of the fight on big screen with "closed circuit TV classic direct from ringside" in Harlem, New York, not far from the fights location at Maddison Square Garden.
