Pre Manny getting put to sleep? Up there with Ali/Frazier.

But no true way to compare. 1970's world was much different. A fight could capture the world. Now there Are too many distractions. And like it or not UFC is here and split off many fans. Boxing is to blame for this as well.

I am old enough to recall Ali. But only during his decline.

wouldn't come close to any big fight before the 90s ... don't know all of the big fights in the post 90s, but boxing back then was truly a big sport prior to the 90s (or whenever it fell off) ...
