It was announced this week that Neil Leifer will become the first photographer inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Leifer started shooting for SI as a 16-year-old in 1958 and went on to capture some of the most iconic images in sports. Our photo editors collected some of Leifer's most iconic boxing images but since I like football 200 times more than boxing, I put together some of his classic NFL images for the gallery above.

Funny Rex

The Jets may be 5-7 and on a three-game losing streak, but at least head coach Rex Ryan still has a sense of humor. Ryan fell to the ground and cracked a few jokes after a loud noise that sounded like machine gun fire interrupted his press conference. And while we're on the subject of funny coach press conferences, here's Mike Gundy's epic "I'm a man. I'm 40" rant from 2007.
