Muhammad Ali. Kinshasa, Zaire, 1974

The Rumble in the Jungle was one of the greatest sporting events of the 20th century. The heavyweight world championship fight took place on May 20, 1974, and saw the ‘unbeatable’ George Foreman go head-to-head with the older Muhammad Ali, and would go down in the records as one of the biggest upsets in sporting history. Abbas, while documenting Mobutu’s Zaire, followed Ali throughout his training in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and captured the fight's defining moments. Pictured here, Ali in the ring.
