1971 Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali "Ringside Working Press" Full Ticket PSA EX 5 - "Fight of the Century"

Full "Ringside Working Press" ticket to the World's Heavyweight Championship "Fight of the Century" between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier held at Madison Square Garden on March 8, 1971. Graded EX 5 by PSA. This particular ticket was issued for members of the press and was not valid for regular admission. The 1971 heavyweight championship fight between Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali (the first of their three momentous fights) was one of the most highly anticipated bouts in boxing history and the first to match an undefeated former champion (Ali) against a current, unbeaten champion (Frazier). (Ali was stripped of his title in 1967 after refusing to be inducted into the U.S. Armed Forces.) The fight was as good as advertised, with Frazier winning a hard-fought fifteen-round unanimous decision. The ticket (5.5 x 1.75 inches) remains in immaculate condition with just light corner wear.
