On June 26, 1976, World Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Ali fought an exhibition match with the famous Japanese wrestler Antonio Inoki. The match took place in Tokyo and after 15 rounds it was declared a draw. However, Ali endured severe punishment to his legs, which bothered him for years following. Offered here is a very scarce, official on-site poster made of paper with illustrations of the fighters. Bold color, sharp images and generally clean with no staining. There is minor edge and surface wear. Written in Japanese, it measures 20" x 28.5."
