Additional Information In perhaps the most iconic photographs in all of sporting history, Muhammad Ali appears here towering above his opponent Sonny Liston in their legendary fight in 1965 during the early portion of his career, which would cement his legacy as one of the most influential figures in the sport of boxing as well as earn him the nickname "The Greatest," implying that he was the pinnacle figure in any sport, especially pugilism. Ali was born as Cassius Clay in Louisville, Kentucky, and began training at twelve before winning the gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics. In a major upset against Sonny Liston, the heavy favorite, Ali gained international fame and accolades across the sporting world. This was the same year he changed his name to Muhammad Ali, a reflection of his religious beliefs. However, his refusal of conscription into the American Army in 1966, due to his opposition to America's growing involvement in the Vietnam War and his ethical stance against war, led to a conviction for draft evasion and the subsequent stripping of his boxing titles, a significant blow to his boxing career. This photograph captures one of the greatest moments in sport,, which occurred during a highly transformative time in American history. It remains an enduring legacy of Ali's influence in the ring and culture while displaying his talent and skill.
