It's a fact only known to a few select insiders, but Muhammad Ali vs. George Foreman was only the second most significant contest to take place in Zaire in the fall of 1974. The first also involved Ali. His opponent was none other than The Godfather of Soul, James Brown. “Coldblooded” performed by James Brown (Link to http://www.apple.com/search/ipoditunes/?q=james+brown+hell)
