This is the audio recording of the "Phantom Punch" title fight—the second championship bout between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston—held on May 25, 1965, at St. Dominic’s Hall in Lewiston, Maine. It also includes a follow-up analysis by boxing experts. This rematch is infamous for the controversial "phantom punch" that led to Liston's quick defeat in the first round. Ali knocked Liston down, but the punch was not clearly seen by many observers, leading to speculation about a fix. The fight was marred by confusion, as the referee failed to administer a proper count, and the atmosphere surrounding the event was tense, contributing to its notoriety.
