A historic robe worn by Muhammad Ali could sell for over $500,000 at auction.
The robe was worn by Ali, arguably the greatest boxer in history, ahead of his memorable 1965 win over Sonny Liston.
Ali had won his first heavyweight title a year earlier with a win over Liston, but he truly proved his ability in the rematch with a first-round knockout over the former champ. Ali standing over Liston has become one of the most iconic images in sports history.
The match was also the first time the boxer fought under the name Muhammad Ali after changing it from Cassius Clay. It makes this robe, featuring the name in red letters over a white background, the first time he publicly displayed his chosen name ahead of a boxing match.
