CELEBRITIES IN ATTENDANCE
Some of showbusiness' top attractions were in attendance for the big fight. While most of the celebrities were just there for the hype and glamour of the event, there were several fighters and well known Hollywood types who are known to love boxing. The night's highlight was when Muhammad Ali got a standing ovation as he came into the arena, followed by a second one as he was announced over the P.A. system, as the crowd chatted "Ali, Ali, Ali."
