1. Thriller in Manila - The Thriller in Manila was the greatest fight of all time. It was the third and final confrontation between Smokin' Joe Frazier and Muhammed Ali, the two men who hated each other.

2. Champions Forever - For more than twenty years, these kings of boxing ruled the ring as they passed the world heavyweight title from one to another. Champions Forever discovers the real men behind the legends and uncovers the hidden anguish and secret passions that drove them to greatness. Accompanied by a magnificent soundtrack and packed with powerful exclusive fight footage, this is unlike any sports video you have ever seen. SPECIAL FEATURES - ALI: THE LOST INTERVIEWS - These are the lost interviews with The Greatest of All Time! - Muhammed Ali.These never-before-seen interviews, filmed in 1990 during the making of the acclaimed documentary Champions Forever, capture the playful, fiesty and inspiring boxing legend.
