# This Folio edition packs a serious punch!

October 2024 marks the 50th anniversary of the legendary ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ where Muhammad Ali celebrated an unforgettable victory over George Foreman. Widely hailed as one of the great works of sports journalism, this edition of The Fight brings readers to the heart of this monumental sporting moment. Michael Mailer, author Norman Mailer’s son, contributes an exciting introduction on the fight’s background, while Muhammad Ali’s daughter, Hana, shares touching memories of her father’s later friendship with George Foreman. We’ve paired Mailer’s words with 15 large scale photographs by legendary sports photographer Neil Leifer, capturing the electric atmosphere of this iconic moment. This was more than just a boxing match: this was a battle of wills and a clash of cultures. Order your copy today and find yourself back in the ring.
