Muhammad Ali defeated Floyd Patterson with a TKO in the 12th round of this 1965 fight. The Heavyweight Championship bout was held in Nevada's Las Vegas Convention Center. This full un-used ticket from the fight shows both Ali's and Patterson's faces, with Cassius Clay in parentheses underneath Ali. This was within one year of his name change from Clay to Ali. This ticket was originally meant for use in the working press box. It is an extremely rare ticket in near mint condition.
