Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier Signed "Thriller in Manilla Fight Poster
This 14 x 22" poster was signed in black marker by Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier, and is truly an original, with the off site sticker on it. The images of Ali and Frazier were originally painted by LeRoy Neiman. The poster reads, "The Saga of Our Lifetime, Ali, Frazier, Philippines 1975, 'Thrilla in Manila' - Tues., Sept. 30". The rectangular white sticker says, in red, "The Omni, Tickets $10.00-$12.00-$15.00, Doors Open 8:30 P.M., Tickets at Box Office & All S.E.A.T.S. Outlets". This was presented by Don King. Leading up to the fight, Ali's frequent insults increased the anticipation and excitement for the fight, but also enraged a determined Frazier. Regarding the fight, Ali famously remarked, "It will be a killa...and a chilla...and a thrilla...when I get the gorilla in Manila." Frazier almost had Ali at one point, but ultimately lost to "The Greatest".
