Joe Frazier (USA) The Champion v George Foreman (USA) The Challenger
An exclusive BBC recording

Earlier today, in Kingston, Jamaica, Joe Frazier (USA) put his world heavyweight title at stake against leading challenger George Foreman (USA). Both men entered the ring with 100 per cent professional records. Moreover, Frazier was risking his proposed multi-million-dollar return fight with Muhammad Ali.
Harry Carpenter is at the National Stadium ringside for this, the most important big fight since Frazier-Ali.
