nope, i saw ali frazier 1 in the south bronx nyc. The only way we were able to get past the thousands outside looking for tickets to get in was to pretend we didn't have any and inched closer to the nyc police guarded entrance to the movie theatre before ducking in under their protection. The first actual ppv fight was 1960 paterson versus johansson . R. I. P. HULK
