This is a rarely seen fight between young Cassius Clay (changed his name to Muhammad Ali in 1964, although not officially) and Alan Hudson for the United States Golden Gloves light heavyweight championship in 1960.
After the fight, Grant approached Butler to hug him but was instead sucker-punched in the jaw by Butler, who was then arrested, convicted, and sent to jail.
