Presented here is a photograph of Muhammad Ali pumping his fist in jubilation after knocking Sonny Liston out in the second of their two famous bouts. Ali cut his teeth on the Liston fights, transitioning from a scrappy little nobody to the dominant force in heavyweight boxing in the space of two short years. Ali’s shocking first round knockout of Liston during their second fight was the final nail in the coffin for Liston, who was quickly consigned to boxing’s scrap heap as a washed-up champ. Ali signed this 16 x 20 inch photograph, which is attached to a 20 x 24 inch white display, in silver marker. This item is accompanied by a LOA from JSA (B65936).
