The Peacock series, featuring Kevin Hart, Samuel L. Jackson, Terrence Howard, and others, narrates the events surrounding a historic boxing match that provided an ideal backdrop for an audacious heist targeting the affluent and renowned.

On October 26, 1970, Muhammad Ali referred to the occasion as his day of judgment. His principled refusal to serve in the Army during the Vietnam War had resulted in a 43-month hiatus from boxing. However, that evening in Atlanta, with his boxing license reinstated, he faced Jerry Quarry, known as
The Great White Hope, marking his long-anticipated return to the sport.

Prominent figures from the African American community, including Diana Ross, Sidney Poitier, Hank Aaron, and Coretta Scott King, graced the ringside. Alongside them, a diverse crowd of gangsters, pimps, drug dealers, and enthusiastic boxing fans adorned in extravagant attire—silk shirts unbuttoned to the waist, four-inch platform shoes, ankle-length mink coats, and stylish mink accessories—filled the stands.
