#OTD in Rome in 1960 a young teenage boxer from #Louisville named #CassiusClay won the #GoldMedal in the light heavyweight boxing division at the #OlympicGames.
The 18 yr old Clay, who reportedly wore a parachute on the entire flight from USA to Italy, defeated 25 yr old Zbigniew Pietrzykowski (standing to the right of Clay as you look at the photograph) . A previous bronze #medallist in the 1956 Melbourne #Olympics , the Polish boxer was a veteran of 231 matches at the time of the Rome Games, compared with Clay’s 108.
The judges gave the wily future black Muslim fighter from Kentucky a unanimous 5-0 decision for the gold.

On this day, 60 years ago in 1964, #CassiusClay wins the heavyweight boxing championship in a stunning upset, when #SonnyListon gave up at the beginning of the seventh round. Soon after, Clay would change his name to #MuhammadAli, and embrace his #Muslim faith through the #NationofIslam.

Die Presse sah in #CassiusClay eher einen Schaumschläger als einen #Boxweltmeister. Im Artikel des Tages blicken wir darauf zurück, wie der vermeintliche Underdog heute vor 60 Jahren die Boxwelt aufrührte: https://www.dwds.de/wb/flink%20wie%20ein%20Wiesel

Muhammad Ali, born Cassius Clay, appears on a wall in a #melbourne suburb of #Balaclava
Whilst I’m not into boxing, this display is striking and is definitely worth a toot!
Nicknamed "The Greatest", he is regarded as one of the most significant sports figures of the 20th century, and is frequently ranked as the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time.
This mural captures the spirit of the legend, albeit in his early years.
He was 74 when he passed, in 2016.
