Mine is a dual signed Gatti v Ward picture with COA....

I would say,An autograph of Sonny Liston (or rather his drawing of it) as he was unable to write.
Had won it on a winning bid on Ebay almost 20 years ago.
But not before I was almost certain that it was authentic of course.
(dont ask me how,but a lot of detail was involved of course)

Nothing of any significance to anybody but me for the most part, just my Boxing collection that I've converted from VHS to DVD. I don't really have any other Memorabilia.

Holyfield signed gloves and a print of the Norman fotc painting signed by Ali.

Poster signed from the Hilton Drayton IBF championship fight in 1987.

Leonard-Duran I official program. http://boxrec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f ... m#p4400948

A hand scrawled note on a bar tab from Nigel Benn. I had to take a beating off his security to get it

Ive had some decent stuff over the years from signed gloves to signed prints to boxing programmes. I sold on my fav programme a decent Bruce Woodcock v Joe Baski programme. I have a lovely signed paul ingle framed photo but the only real thing i have that means something is around my neck



Its not from anyone famous but was a present i bought for my son on his 18th birthday but he never wore it.


If people ask i quote the famous Mickey (Rocky 5) speech that its Rocky Marcianos cuff link.

He was DJing, probs be 1998. It was a tall DJ booth about 12 feet high which had some port holes in it for lights. Nobody could get near him when he came in so when he was playing I decided to run and jump up into the booth. From the dance floor it looked like it was only him in the thing but there was four security guys behind him when I jumped in. The fired straight into me, eventually stamping on my head a few times. Nigel pulled them off and asked me wtf I was doing. I had a bar tab and small pen clutched tightly in my hand and said I was a big fan of his boxing and wanted to meet him, he laughed and as he wrote out the note he decried boxing as a horrible sport. He then said "fornicate boxing man, what do you think of my music!" I just laughed and said playing records isn't that hard he wasn't too impressed but I got away with just some bruises.

When I got down and I showed the autograph at the bar a guy tried to grab it and ripped it a bit. I got thrown out for hitting him. It's says "Nice to meet you best wishes Nigel"

Three pictures of me and Ali in a fighting pose. Plus his signed book.

Nice story. So the security, were they the Essex Boys?

I never even thought of that...maybe they were done by then, I will check.


Edit: those roid head idiots were pan bread by that time.

My favorite piece of memorabilia is an old boxing magazine - World Boxing, April 1993. – I succeeded in getting one of its writers, Ed Maloney so pissed-off with a letter I wrote him that in his feature article “Getting My Irish UP,” he told me off personally. I got so under this guy’s skin that he couldn’t resist smacking me back; he used up an entire column of his article revisiting an old point he had already made just so he could tell me off. The magazine didn’t see fit to publish my letter so there was really no way other readers could understand what he was saying to me. I treasure that magazine.

Always regret not getting mine off my am coach, had harry carpenters autograph in it

I treasure the signed original contracts George Chuvalo gave me for his fights with Frazier, Foreman, Bonavena, Quarry and Mathis. I also have on-site posters, tickets and programs for both of Chuvalo's bouts with Ali, and numerous other posters and programs signed by heavyweight contenders from the 1960s and '70s. I was very fortunate to interview Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Tyson and Lennox Lewis on multiple occasions and acquired nice pieces of memorabilia from all of them.
