The Phantom Punch, 1965 — Limited Edition Print

Muhammad Ali reacts after his first-round knockout against Sonny Liston during the World Heavyweight Title fight at St. Dominic’s Arena in Lewiston, Maine on May 25, 1965. The match was one of the most anticipated, watched, and controversial fights in the sport's history, and this split-second shot by Leifer is considered to be one of the most iconic photos of the 20th century.
