EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we witness the legendary Muhammad Ali in Gleasons Gym, preparing himself for his third fight with Ken Norton. Taken on September 26th, 1976, during the vibrant era of the 1970s, this image encapsulates the essence of a true African American icon. With his muscular frame glistening under the gym lights, Ali stands before us as a symbol of strength and determination. His focused gaze reveals an unwavering commitment to his craft - boxing. Known for his lightning-fast punches and unparalleled footwork, he earned himself titles such as "The Greatest" and "The Louisville Lip". As we observe him in action within this historic training space, our eyes are drawn to the speed ball hanging from above. It serves as a testament to Ali's relentless pursuit of perfection in mastering every aspect of his sport. The world boxing council (WBC) belt draped over his shoulder further emphasizes his status as a heavyweight champion. Beyond being an extraordinary athlete, Muhammad Ali was also an influential figure who used his platform to advocate for civil rights and social justice causes. This print by Monte Fresco captures not only a moment in time but also pays homage to one man's indomitable spirit that transcended sports. *
