Muhammad Ali confronts Joe Frazier, 1974 — Limited Edition Print

by Michael Brennan

Muhammad Ali is photographed with rival boxer Joe Frazier after a 1974 press conference at the Wig & Pen restaurant in Manhattan where they announced their upcoming fight at Madison Square Garden. Ali is shown pointing to the side-view mirror of Frazier's car as he tells him to "take a look and see how ugly he is" in one of his creative insults.

It would seem that a camera, any camera anywhere would have Muhammad Ali turn into a promotional automaton. Unfortunately, many recipients of those well-meaning tirades found it tiresome. Joe Frazier most times tolerated Ali’s creative insults. However, on this occasion it became obvious that had his trainer, Eddie Futch, and press representative, Dave Wolf, not intervened, Frazier would have responded. You might have seen Ali v. Frazier 2 on the streets of Manhattan.
