Did this fight in Jamaica have a name?
Like “Thrilla in Manila” or “Bungle in the Jungle”?

I meant “The Rumble in the Jungle”. “Bungle in the Jungle” was a Jethro Tull song....

Found my answer on Wikipedia.
The Sunshine Showdown! I did watch it with my Dad (we always watched boxing together), all those years ago:
The Sunshine Showdown took place on January 22, 1973, in Kingston, Jamaica, with Foreman dominating the fight to win the championship by TKO. In ABC's rebroadcast, Howard Cosell made the memorable call, "Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!"
