Black & white foto of Muhammed Ali

This iconic black and white photo "Give me Five" depicts the worl-famous, multiple world-boxing champion, Muhammad Ali, who is also known as "Cassius Clay." In the image, Muhammed predicts - while lying on his hotel bed - how many rounds it will take for his British opponent Henry Cooper to get knockedout. However, the fight ended differently; Cooper defeated Ali (by knockout) at the end of the fourth round. Two years later Ali would take his revenge; he defeated Cooper and became world champion again. This iconic image was taken in 1963 by photographer L. Trievnor.
