Henry Cooper did The Brut advert many years ago with Kevin Keegan. Im sure John Conteh did an advert some time ago, he's definitely on the cover of Paul McCartneys album by Wings "Band on the run"

Bruno used to advertise the Sun.
Oh I remember the days when boxers were in adverts for doing the thing that they do best.... Boxing.... Boxing videos etc.
Gets Zero advertising now, no boxing adverts on the dedicated channel for boxing. Must be one of the only channels that do not promote their upcoming progamming during the ad break.

The Kevin Mitchell ad is just of someone who looks a lot like him.
Larry O was in some advert.
Not an advert as such but Lennox did a TV campaign for recruiting Policeman - "Police: Could you" was the slogan.
He was also in one about conserving energy, where he poured too much water in a kettle so upturned the tap and poured the water back in it that he didn't need.
