To be deemed “The Athlete of the Century” as Muhammad Ali was by GQ Magazine in its April 1999 edition is a remarkable honor. The list of athletes that shaped and defined the 1900s was long, but none broke the physical and political boundaries like that of Ali. This signed magazine features Ali’s signature in bold, black Sharpie across a sweaty portrait of “The Greatest.” “The Athlete of the Century” is displayed prominently on the bottom right corner of the cover in silver writing, with “GQ” also appearing in silver in the top right corner. The signed magazine comes with a PSA/DNA LOA with certification number “I91749.”
