Robert Freeman joined the Beatles on their first US tour, and was with them when they flew to Miami after their first appearance on the
Ed Sullivan Show. The Beatles were taken to meet Muhammad Ali (then Cassius Clay) on February 18, 1964. They were brought to Miami Beach's 5th Street Gym where Ali was preparing for his upcoming heavyweight fight with Sonny Liston. He captured this portrait of Ali while a press event was being broadcast after their meeting.
