Ali’s next fight to be Frazier duel after Bonavena win
Muhammad Ali completed the buildup for a heavyweight dream fight with Joe Frazier after stopping Oscar Bonavena in 15 rounds at Madison Square Garden. The win came as Ali weighed 212 to 204 with plans for a February bout as promoters hype a potential seven-million dollar matchup. Bonavena was penalized for two low blows, and Ali’s late-round stamina, skill, and claimed punch power drew praise amid a sellout crowd and strong receipts.
