Newspaper Clipping from the Toronto Daily Star, March 29, 1966

Several newspaper articles about the fight between Muhammad Ali and George Chuvalo, which took place on March 29, 1966, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The articles mention the fact that the fight was likely to gross much less money than a Heavyweight Championship fight would normaly bring in because of Ali's comments about not wanting to be drafted into the Vietnam War, and the fact that Chuvalo was not recognized as a top contender as a heavyweight boxer.
