EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a young Muhammad Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, during his prime in the 1960s. The image showcases the legendary boxer's determination and charisma that would later make him an icon worldwide. At just 18 years old, Ali made history by winning the Olympic gold medal in the middle heavyweight category at the 1960 Rome Games. This victory marked only the beginning of his remarkable journey to greatness. In February 1964, he achieved another milestone by defeating Sonny Liston to become the world heavyweight champion for the first time. Ali's unparalleled talent and magnetic personality transcended boxing itself. He became a symbol of strength, resilience, and social activism throughout his career. His unwavering commitment to civil rights and opposition against war made him an influential figure beyond sports. In this portrait-style photograph taken by Agence France-Presse (AFP), Ali exudes confidence as he gazes into the distance with intensity. The vertical composition emphasizes his powerful presence within and outside of the ring. This timeless image serves as a reminder of Muhammad Ali's indelible impact on both boxing history and society at large. It encapsulates a moment frozen in time when a young athlete began etching his name into legend - forever becoming "The Greatest. "
