The name of the fight between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier has always appealed to me in somewhat of a humorous way: Thrilla in Manila. You gotta have some sort of capacity to appreciate rhyme to take it in completely and when you do it’s appealing and funny. The fight in the Philippines was no joke though. Even if Ali was a joker with the press and showman in the ring. It was the real deal in October 1975. Ha ha. I have no idea what I’m talking about.
I don’t even know who won. It was the third fight between them. Hold on. While I go research what this fight was all about, you go ahead and buy the Thrilla in Manila T Shirt, and we’ll reconvene right here and watch a clip. Deal? I can’t imagine any major fight between to American’s being held in another country these days. Would that ever happen again?
Busted Tees seems to have come up with a new sports branch for their brand called Loyalist. Some interesting stuff.
