When Heavyweight Champion Muhammad Ali refuses to apologize for his statement, "I ain't got no quarrel with them Viet Cong," he is unable to find a state to house his planned defense against Ernie Terrell. Promoter Bob Arum is left with no choice but to take Ali to Canada to face George Chuvalo on short notice. Chuvalo comes to fight and punishes Ali with a relentless body attack in the early rounds, but Ali solves the game challenger and out boxes him over the second half of the fight to win a convincing unanimous decision.
