1966 Exceptional action photograph of Muhammad Ali battling his challenger Henry Cooper. While their first bout in 1963 had been close, with Cooper even knocking Ali down, this one was a bloodbath as Ali had landed a blow to the eye of Cooper that led to him bleeding profusely. The most violent fight of Ali's career, this is an absolute work of boxing history. Directly from a London archive and offered here for the first time ever, the photo is a rarity in the United States and this one was found in the original United Press envelope (scanned for provenance but included). A perfect 10/10 that is among the best images of any Ali fight we have ever seen and showing the legend looking almost possessed by the drive to win!
