Popular Londoner – Sir Henry, was a former British, European and Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion and last boxed in 1971 when he was out-pointed by Joe Bugner. He fought Muhammad Ali twice and was stopped both times on cuts, but will be remembered for ‘flooring’ Ali in the fourth round at their first meeting in 1963.
