Muhammad Ali Fights In Vancouver TWICE (1972 Boxing Programs)
Rare Muhammad Ali Boxing Programs
After finally being released from his legal battles with the US Government for refusing to serve in Vietnam, boxing legend, Muhammad Ali, traveled to Vancouver, Canada to fight not just once, but TWICE on the same night. These 5 round exhibition matches shared the card with a George Chuvalo defense of his Canadian heavyweight title, setting the stage for their rematch in the same city a few months later! A local fight fan attended both of these events at the Pacific Coliseum and purchased programs each time. Forty-four years later, his son went looking for a buyer who would treat these programs with the respect they deserve! During his original call to me, we discussed the significance of Ali’s fights here and the good old days of the sport itself! We talked about values and negotiated a bit but left it up in the air for him to research further! After a couple of low-ball offers and one scheduled appointment where the guy did not show up, he called me back and we met in person to conclude the deal! Watch as I pay him $450.00 cash (no games, no b.s.)! If you have historical sports memorabilia and want to sell it to me, call 604-726-1774 or e-mail info@aasportscards.com.
