One of the most iconic sports photographs ever taken, this is the famous "Muhammad Ali Towers Over Sonny Liston" photograph by John Rooney of the Associated Press. Sitting right next to Neil Leifer from Life magazine (who caught the exact same photo at a slightly different angle). Condition is stunning and the image is quite nice with a touch of clarity being lost as this is a laser/wire restrike from the 1970's.
