In 1976, Muhammad Ali and Ken Norton met inside the ring at Yankee Stadium. The conclusion of the fight would go down as one of the most controversial decisions in boxing. But the civil unrest around Yankee Stadium in the Bronx — and in New York City as a whole — became the story of the evening.

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Michael_Elliott 30 for 30 Shorts: Robbed (2014) Muhammad Ali and Ken Norton were to meet at Yankee Stadium on September 28, 1976 for their third match but outside the streets of the Bronx were a complete mess. The police were pretty much on strike and this here allowed the local gangs to run out of control and they were able to do anything they wanted, which included robbing the rich people who showed up to see the fight. While all the robbing was going on in the streets, inside the ring Ali was being torn to shreds by Norton but the decision led to another robbery. I will start off by saying that this story certainly deserved a full feature length version because there's just so much that was going on during this crazy night in the Bronx. It would have been great to have heard from more people but what we do get here is pretty excellent stuff. There are interviews with a few of the police who were there that night as well as a couple sports reporters. It's clear that there was craziness happening both inside and outside the ring. We get video footage from the fight itself as well as some of the stuff that was happening outside and you can only see what it was like in New York during this period.Episode: A+
