Regular price $235.00

On February 15, 1978 Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Ali defended his title against upstart Leon Spinks at the Las Vegas Hilton in Las Vegas, Nevada. Spinks had won a gold medal in the Light Heavyweight division in the 1976 Olympics, but this was only his eighth professional fight. Despite his obvious inexperience Spinks gamely outfought an aging and out of shape Ali and won the title by 15 round decision. Offered here is an original press kit from this event which was distributed to the media before this fight.
This is an original media press kit consisting of 20 pages with information about the fighters including some on the undercard. Tight binding. Clean inside and out. Not creased or torn. Very minor surface wear from handling. About as nice an example as you will find. 8 1/2" x 11."

Size: 8 1/2 x 11

Condition: excellent
