ROPE-A-DOPE ($103,000 – $109,000)

On October 30, 1974, in Zaire, 60,000 people gathered to watch George Foreman (the reigning, undefeated world heavyweight champion) and Muhammad Ali (the former champion) square off, in what is widely considered the greatest sporting event of the 20th century.

The historic boxing event, dubbed ‘The Rumble in the Jungle’ had Ali pegged as a 4-1 underdog.

Facing a physically superior competitor, Ali realized he had little chance of victory if he tried to simply trade blows with Foreman. As such, he and his team devised a secret plan. As the second round commenced, Ali put his never before seen ‘Rope-a-Dope’ plan into action.

Leaning back on the ropes and covering his head, Ali allowed Foreman to punch at his arms and body. Weathering a storm of punches, Ali would strategically deliver a flurry of shots once George had grown tired.

Foreman didn’t realize the amount of energy he was expending – while landing largely ineffective strikes.

And, as the 8th round was coming to a close, Ali delivered a flurry of punches to an energy-depleted Foreman … sending the exhausted champion to the canvas!
