Simply the "Greatest."From the archives of The Sporting News comes this shot of an intense Muhammad Ali taping up before eight rounds of sparring in Pennsylvania. There appears to be an original negative taped to the back of the photo. Ali - who won the Olympic Gold Medal when he was known as Cassius Clay - was much more than just a fighter. Social activist, philanthropist and social icon were all apt descriptions of the champ.
