A look at the events leading up to and including the legendary March 1971 bout between
Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier. The film also looks at the politcal and social factors that helped to make this fight more than
just an ordinary boxing match between two of the greatest heavyweight champions that ever lived as Ali was a symbol for liberals,
militant blacks and hippies and Frazier was a symbol for the more conservative elements for society.

The Dick Cavett Show:
Ali and Frazier
|
|
|
A complete 90 minute Dick Cavett Show from January 1974 in which the two men appeared
together just a couple of weeks before their long anticipated rematch. This show was WILD ! First, Cavett is shown in Ali's
training camp a few weeks before where he gets in the ring with Ali. Then, British reporter Mike Parkinson reports from Frazier's
training camp. After the training camp segments, the show returns to the studio where Ali and Frazier appear together and
mercilessly taunt each other for the remainder of the show ! At one point, it looked like they would go after each other right
on the set. At another point, they actually lift poor Cavett up in the air ! Wow, this was classic TV !!
