The Muhammad Ali vs. George Foreman heavyweight championship fight in Zaire on October 29, 1974 will not only go down as one of the most hyped prize fights in history, it will also be remembered for living up to the top billing it received. Ali, the confident, super-talented champion, had almost the entire country of Zaire rooting for him as he knocked out Foreman in the eighth round to retain the title and win the "Rumble in the Jungle." Several key moments from that epic battle, specifically Round 4, are wonderfully depicted in this 50" x 42" LeRoy Neiman serigraph. The serigraph is matted and framed and numbered 11 of 270. Neiman's original signature appears in the lower right corner.
