As the world mourned the loss of boxing great Muhammad Ali last month, many of PCT’s readers remembered The Champ for his iconic TV commercials and print ads promoting d-Con roach products.
A favorite of the PCT staff was the 1980 TV commercial in which Ali takes time out from punching the heavy bag to inform viewers he isn’t afraid of anything with two legs but that “even The Greatest needs help with things with six legs (roaches).” Ali then sings the praises of d-Con Fourgone and chimes in “d-Con: More power to you.” He emphatically concludes the TV commercial by delivering a powerful blow to said heavy bag. We miss you Champ!
