Offered is the Sports Illustrated cover that previewed the rematch between Cassius Clay and Sonny Liston in Lewiston, Maine. The famous "Phantom Punch" secured Clay's win over Liston, and it was a controversial one at that. The issue earned a 7.0 grade from magazine authenticator CGC, with just three examples graded higher across the company's population report.
