Pan American Games Boxing Tournament
Cassius Clay (left), and Amos Johnson of the Marines spar during their match during the Pan American Games finals tournament at the University of Wisconsin field house. Johnson won in a split decision, snapping Clay's winning streak at 36, and preventing him from competing for the team in the competition in Chicago, subsequently motivating him to train harder at home in Louisville. |
