Muhammad Ali vs Sonny Liston (1965).

Neil Leifer iconic picture captures one of the 20th century greatest sportsmen at his peak.

A 23-year-old heavyweight-boxing champion name Muhammad Ali.

One minute and 44 seconds into the first round, Ali’s right fist connected with Liston’s chin and Liston went down.

Leifer snapped the photo of the champion towering over his vanquished opponent and taunting him, “Get up and fight, sucker!”
