Blinded By A Phantom Punch



 Levellors notwithstanding,
 this is an iconic
 sports image.


 It was Muhammed Ali's first defense
 of the Heavyweight title
 he had won
 the year
 before.


 In 1964, he stunned the world by defeating
 Heavyweight Champion Sonny Liston
 in seven rounds.

 The following May, he knocked out
 the former champ in the first round
 with a controversial
"phantom punch."
