This was one of the most iconic rivalries in the history of boxing. Ali and Frazier met three times in an enthralling trilogy, the first two encounters saw the fight go the gruelling 15-round distance, while the last was stopped before the final round by Frazier’s corner.
Frazier’s win in the first bout was Ali’s maiden career loss, while the third meeting, the “Thrilla in Manila” in 1975, lived up to the build up and went down as one of the greatest fights in boxing history. biopic
