The most iconic photo in boxing history documents the knockout that almost nobody saw happen. The fight lasted less than one full round, with Ali knocking out Liston at the 1:44 mark. It was a shocking result, not only because Liston was favored in the match, but because hardly anybody saw the punch that took him down. Liston had thrown a jab with his left arm and, leaning forward, took a right hook from Ali right to the skull. He sunk to the canvas, and as he was down, Ali stood over him, taunting and demanding his stunned opponent get back up. The photo captures the champion’s exhortations, with all the fire and passion and dynamic physicality that made him such a phenomenon. Liston did eventually rise from the mat, but soon after, the referee broke up the two boxers once again — the former champion had been down for more than 10 seconds, ending the fight.

      Thank You, the feedback on my blog is always appreciated! I wasn’t sure if when I started it in 2021, if it was content anyone would be interested in! But, I took the two things I love the most, film and history, and decided I would combine my two Bachelor’s and teach some history in a differnt more enaging way! I really felt that the internet was lacking an interesting way to take in history, and thought, everyone loves film and television, why not meet them on that level, while also showing that there is plenty history to be learned from films and television that adapt those histories! So It pleases me to know that MoviestoHistory.com has an audience! I look forward to you reading more of the excellant content I have planned for the future!
