What was the biggest and most anticipated fight in boxing history?

[boxingbuff]

Everyone in the world was anticipating Louis-Schmeling II, not just fight fans. The world wide political ramifications made it the biggest sporting event in history.

Not just "fight fans" were anticipating the Ali-Frazier 1 fight too.

People around the World were anticipating the Fight of the Century for many reasons as well.

Both fights were anticipated around the world,but the Ali-Frazier fight was "bigger" because you had two undefeated Heavyweight Champions.

It's close,there 1&2 for sure.

Tyson vs Spinks was huge at the time!

To be honest.....Tyson vs Bruno 2 was massive too. Non boxing fans were into that one, especially in the UK. Could Tyson be champion again?

Sometimes a disappointing fight/result can overshadow how big an event was built up.
