It seems a slightly odd auction to be in, as its not aimed at a sports targeted auction.
I think it'll make £23000.

It is beautiful for me the Lonsdale Belt are one of the most beauiftul trophies in sport in my opinion along with the FA Cup and I hope it finds a good home for something who has a genuine passion and interest for this sport that we all love.
