This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/25/2016
Here's another hard to find boxing pennant. This one was sold at the fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman*. It measures a little over 25' long and is in excellent plus condition.
The Rumble in the Jungle was a historic boxing event in 1974 in Kinshasa, Zaire (now Democratic Republic of the Congo). Held at the 20th of May Stadium on the night of October 30, 1974 (4:00 am), it pitted the undefeated world heavyweight champion George Foreman against challenger Muhammad Ali, a former heavyweight champion. Attendance was about 60,000. Ali won by knockout, putting Foreman down just before the end of the eighth round. It has been called "arguably the greatest sporting event of the 20th century".
