On September 29, 1977 at New York's Madison Square Garden, Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Ali defended his title against tough challenger Earnie Shavers. Ali won a close 15 round decision. Ali was wobbled in the 2nd and 14th rounds, but had enough to survive. The fight was a huge financial success. The Garden was sold out and NBC which televised it live had incredible ratings, a tribute to Ali's drawing power. Presented here is an original, full, unused ticket for this event. This full ticket names and pictures both fighters and includes a section, row and seat number. The ticket is in NM condition with bold color and print, bold, clear images, no creasing and only minor edge and surface wear. Authenticated by PSA/DNA.
