Sir Henry Cooper – Signed Glove presentation

Item Number:  5266

This stunning special edition presentation contains a full size, brand new BBE fight glove and a black and white photo, with the glove personally signed by Sir Henry Cooper.

This stunning black and white photograph shows the moment when Cooper nearly ended Ali’s march to the world title.

It was on 18 June 1963 at Wembley Stadium when Cooper knocked Ali (then Cassius Clay) down in the fourth round with his trademark left hook, "Enry's 'Ammer". The bell rang before Cooper could complete a knockout, and Ali was so dazed that legend has it his trainer, Angelo Dundee, cut his glove. Another had to fetched, giving the future champion time to recover.

The glove was personally signed by Sir Henry and was part of an exclusive signing held in 2010.

They are presented in a deep box frame giving a 3D effect with double inset mounts, measuring in at a large and impressive 79cm x 53cm x 16cm (approximately).

A really superb item of memorabilia from one of the nations most loved and respected sports personalities.
