Offered is a Muhammad Ali signature on a classic color photograph of the late heavyweight boxing champion in the center of the ring celebrating his upset victory over Sonny Liston to capture the title in 1964. Ali has signed his name in black marker in the lower left of the 16 x 20-inch color photo, which captures Ali with his arms upraised in victory after his historic fight with Liston. That bout, held on February 25, 1964 in Miami Beach, Florida featured Ali (then known as Cassius Clay), a 7–1 underdog, winning the heavyweight championship in a major upset, when Liston gave up at the opening of the seventh round (after being clearly dominated in the sixth). This item comes with a STICKER ONLY from PSA/DNA (5A02141).
