When Ali Came to Ireland is the story of how Butty Sugrue, a circus strongman from Killorglin, Co. Kerry, pulled off a massive sporting coup in July 1972 when he arranged a fight in Croke Park between 'The Greatest' Muhammad Ali and ex-con Alvin 'Blue' Lewis. The fight had an amazing impact on the people Ali met and on the great man himself.
