Muhammad Ali vs Jerry Quarry Fight Poster

Celebrate a pivotal night in Muhammad Ali’s comeback story with this fight poster promoting Muhammad Ali vs Jerry Quarry in Atlanta, the bout billed as “The Return of the Champion.” Staged at the Atlanta Municipal Auditorium on October 26, 1970, this was Ali’s first fight back after his years away from the ring, making it one of the most historically significant events of the era and a landmark moment in heavyweight boxing history.

Ali controlled the contest with his trademark speed and sharp combinations, and the fight was stopped after the third round when Quarry could not continue due to damage around the eye — recorded as a 3rd-round stoppage/retirement in Ali’s favour. The result marked the successful rebirth of Ali’s career and set the stage for the legendary run of fights that followed.
