When is Ali vs Frazier IV? No new men’s fight — trilogy ended Manila; 2001 Laila vs Jacqui already used “IV.”
Ali vs Frazier IV has no new date. Men’s trilogy closed in Manila; June 8 2001 daughters’ bout already billed as IV. Hologram cards ≠ Part IV.
When Is Ali vs Frazier IV Date?
No official premiere day is confirmed. Bookmark this page — we add a countdown as soon as a date is announced.
No new Ali–Frazier IV is coming — Manila closed the fathers, and 2001 already used the Roman numeral
Search traffic still asks for Ali vs Frazier IV as if a fourth heavyweight chapter is pending. It isn’t. Ali and Frazier’s blood feud ended in Manila; both men have passed. Any fresh “Part IV” date on social is nostalgia spam or a novelty card.
What confuses the query: June 8, 2001 already sold Laila Ali vs Jacqui Frazier-Lyde as Ali-Frazier IV at Turning Stone — a real fight that took the name before modern scrapers invented a men’s rematch Friday.
Confirmed: men’s trilogy complete; 2001 daughters’ IV already fought — not a 2027 hologram rematch
Confirmed: no new men’s Ali–Frazier IV is scheduled; Thrilla in Manila (1975) closed the trilogy; June 8, 2001 Laila vs Jacqui was marketed as IV and is in the books. Not confirmed: AI/hologram “returns,” a sanctioned Ali–Frazier V, or tribute dinners counting as championship dates. Fake “Las Vegas 2027 — estates agree” stubs invent a corridor.
From Madison Square Garden to Manila — then the daughters’ Turning Stone night
- Mar 8 1971 — Fight of the Century; Frazier decision over Ali.
- Jan 28 1974 — rematch; Ali wins.
- Oct 1 1975 — Thrilla in Manila; Ali stops Frazier; trilogy ends.
- Jun 8 2001 — Laila Ali vs Jacqui Frazier-Lyde billed Ali-Frazier IV; Laila MD.
- After — no dated men’s Part IV; no sanctioned Ali–Frazier V on major calendars.
How to read an “Ali-Frazier IV” listing without buying a ghost card
- Men’s fourth fight: not announced, not possible with both legends gone.
- Name collision: 2001 daughters’ bout already used “Ali-Frazier IV.”
- Trilogy end point: Thrilla in Manila — not a cliffhanger.
- Novelty/AI cards ≠ ABC/ESPN/PPV championship dates.
- Until a real sanctioning body posts names + venue + Friday, keep this URL empty.
Ali-Frazier IV already happened — it was Laila vs Jacqui on June 8, 2001, not a fourth fathers’ fight
Promoters stamped “Ali-Frazier IV” on the Turning Stone tent when the daughters fought eight two-minute rounds; Laila took a majority decision while Joe Frazier hugged Jacqui in the ring. That night answered the Roman numeral a quarter-century after Manila. Scrapers asking for a 2020s men’s rematch are looking for a ghost.
Honest pages keep the countdown blank for any new Part IV, point history hunters at 1971/74/75 plus 2001, and refuse to sell hologram exhibitions as the next Thrilla.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this release date.
1When is Ali vs Frazier IV?
There is no new men’s Ali–Frazier IV on any boxing calendar — Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier have both passed, and the heavyweight trilogy closed in Manila. Leave any “2026–28 rematch” countdown blank.
2Wasn’t there already an Ali-Frazier IV?
Yes. On June 8, 2001, Laila Ali fought Jacqui Frazier-Lyde at Turning Stone Casino in Verona, New York — promoted as Ali-Frazier IV. Laila won a majority decision (scores included 79-73, 77-75, and a 76-76 draw card). That bout already claimed the “IV” branding.
3How did the men’s trilogy end?
Three fights: 1971 Fight of the Century (Frazier W), 1974 rematch (Ali W), and October 1, 1975 Thrilla in Manila (Ali W). Manila is the closed ending for the fathers — not a cliffhanger waiting for a fourth men’s night.
4Are hologram or AI Ali–Frazier cards real Part IV dates?
No. Tribute shows, deepfake exhibitions, and unsanctioned novelty cards are not a WBA/WBC/IBF-dated Ali vs Frazier IV. Treat them as entertainment stubs, not this countdown.
