Large 1935 sweeping action photograph from the Heavyweight fight between Max Baer and Joe Louis at Yankee Stadium. This was Baer's first bout since losing the title to James Braddock and this would be his second loss as Louis knocked him out in the fourth round. Baer would however go on to a nice winning streak of 19 bouts over the next few years. A rare fight to find quality images of, this one of the best that captures the two iconic fighters from just above ring level. From the archives of Underwood and Underwood and stamped on the back with a full paper caption as well.
