EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on August 26th, 1976 at Gleasons Gym in New York, we witness a moment of respite for the legendary Muhammad Ali during his training session ahead of his highly anticipated third fight with Ken Norton. Standing alongside him is none other than his trusted corner man and confidant, Drew Bundini Brown. As the cameras capture their presence, Ali takes a break from his rigorous preparations to strike a pose that exudes both confidence and charisma. His powerful fists are clenched tightly, symbolizing the strength and determination that have made him one of the greatest heavyweight boxers in history. This image encapsulates not only Ali's physical prowess but also highlights the significance of African American representation in sports during the 20th century. As an iconic figure who transcended boxing itself, he became a symbol of hope and inspiration for black Americans across the nation. The inclusion of Drew Bundini Brown adds another layer to this photograph as he played an instrumental role in Ali's career as both a trainer and motivator. Their partnership was built on trust and mutual respect, making them an unstoppable force within the ring. Through Monte Fresco's lens, we are transported back to an era where Muhammad Ali reigned supreme as "The Louisville Lip" - The People's Champion. This print serves as a timeless reminder of his indomitable spirit and everlasting legacy within the world of sports.
