The June 10, 1963 issue of Sports Illustrated captured him at the moment of transformation. Posed in front of Big Ben in London ahead of his bout with Henry Cooper, this cover marked his first appearance on the most important magazine in American sports. Within fourteen months, he would defeat Sonny Liston to become heavyweight champion of the world. Within four years, he would refuse induction into the Vietnam War. Within a generation, he would be the most recognized human being on the planet. This cover is where the journey started. A foundational piece of boxing history, graded PSA 7 with white pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr style=\"margin: 24px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthentication:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCert #149921015 · \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.psacard.com\/cert\/149921015\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eVerify with PSA →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NachoSmasher Collectibles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50058280435852,"sku":"PSA-149921015","price":1499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/9411\/2908\/files\/146_06slEsfQCOcWNPSQe-iIg1-j_wn9y_w2000.jpg?v=1780494663","url":"https:\/\/nachosmasher.com\/products\/1963-muhammad-ali-sports-illustrated-1st-cover-psa-7","provider":"NachoSmasher Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
