Ali vs Liston

The Ali - Listen picture is one of the greatest picture in boxing history. Part of being a great photographer is being lucky enough to be in the right spot at the right time like this photographer was, but a more important part is not missing when you're in that spot. This photographer got very lucky at the Ali-Liston fight. Photographers mount their cameras on the light rigging above the ring before, only they had pointed them down, from the corners, so that they could capture the fighters' facial expressions. Ali looking down at Liston screaming and pounding his chest just made this picture magical.
