1936 Ringside photograph showing the man many thought was unbeatable, Joe Louis as he lay knocked out on the canvas from a right hook by Max Schmeling. In one of the most sensational upsets in sports history, this photo shows the referee signaling that Louis is out and Schmeling was the winner. A nice image from the International News and with an important vintage date stamp on the back.
