EDIT October 2016: Has no one looked at this? It's indisputably an error. I am not technically qualified to make the change, so one of you will need to do it. Remove the 1971 Ali-Frazier fight from the page; it's erroneously

EDIT March 2018: Seriously? No one cares to act upon the pure error of fact described above??
