On June 15, 1976, at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, former Heavyweight Champions Joe Frazier and George Foreman squared off in an important heavyweight match. At stake was Foreman's NABF Title. In the first meeting of these two, Foreman demolished Frazier to win the Heavyweight Title. In this rematch the outcome was the same. Frazier's style of coming forward favored Foreman's awesome power and he knocked Frazier down twice in the 5th round before the referee moved in to stop the action. Presented here is a very scarce on-site poster to this event. This is a paper poster entitled, "The Gladiators," which pictures both fighters in Roman garb. The poster is clean and exhibits almost no fading. No creases. 14x22."
