1962 Wire Photo CASSIUS CLAY Knocks ARCHIE MOORE To The Canvas!

Old Meets New!

A Vintage 1962 Wire Photograph issued by the Associated Press depicting boxing champ Cassius Clay delivering a fierce blow to Archie Moore. In the days before the fight, Clay had rhymed that "Archie Moore...Must fall in four." Moore replied that he had perfected a new punch for the match: The Lip-Buttoner. Nonetheless, as Clay predicted Moore, his former trainer and a veteran boxer, was beaten by a knockout in four rounds. Excellent 7-1/2”x 10” action shot with razor sharp clarity with the original press stamp and date on the verso.
