Check out "Zaire," an animated short film created by visual artist David Rathman for Muhammad Ali Enterprises and No Mas NYC.

David Rathman's Zaire translates iconic moments from the Rumble in the Jungle—the press conference, the rope-a-dope, Ali’s stunning knockout, delirious crowds—into stirring black-and-blue toned watercolors.

Produced by Tom DeBiaso, sound design Rik Sferra and animation/motion graphics by Dave Novak. David Rathman's gray-wash time capsule juxtaposes iconic Rumble sound bites with Rathman’s spectacular visualization.

Oct 30, 1975 was the 35th anniversary of a seminal sports event: the Rumble in the Jungle, which pitted George Foreman against Muhammad Ali in Kinshasa, Zaire.
