memoribilia - what have you got?
I have just got through in the post a mint condition Vargas vs Quartey fight programme - purchased from ebay for roughly £6 inc postage bloody result i say:)
I can't believe that fight is 11 years ago, 2000 the year i left school and i even had pictures of the fight on my bedroom wall at the time ;D
Anyway has anybody else had any bargains like this?
What memoribillia do you guys own
i have fight programmes from shows i have been to and a couple i havent been to, Lewis v Tyson for one. I also have a few autographs i have been lucky to get
Re: memoribilia - what have you got?
I got Muhammed Ali's autography from 1972 when my grandfather met him in Ireland.
Also I got a boxing news signed by Naz before he won the world title.Naz signed it from the future world champ.
Re: memoribilia - what have you got?
I've got Signed Photos from Gary Stretch & Frank Bruno (in person).
I've got signed Gloves from Henry Cooper, Joe Fraizer & David Haye.
The Henry Cooper one is pretty special. A boxer died or was gravely injured in the ring (still trying to find the name and exact details... My father in law got it for me but really wasn't one for fine details :rolleyes: ;D :eek:) and Henry Cooper apparently signed his gloves, robe and trunks then auctioned them off for some sort of charity/ awareness.
Oh and I've got a fight program for David Hayes first fight at Heavyweight against Tomasz Bonin.

HOF Induction Weekend is a good time. I'm rather lucky, though. I live bout 5 hours away from the Hall of Fame and only 2 hours away from Foxwoods and Mohehan Sun Casinos in CT. I'd have far less things if I didn't live in between this stuff.:)
Re: memoribilia - what have you got?

Re: memoribilia - what have you got?
I have a program from a Freddie Steele fight in 1938 that I found in an antique store. But my prized possession is an autograph that my aunt got in 1940 from Fritzie Zivic. At the same time she also got Billy Conn's autograph but, 50 years later, was unable to find it.

I also have a poster for the Tyson v Holyfield fight that did not happen before he went to jail.
Re: memoribilia - what have you got?
Signed picture of Ingemar Johansson. Bought it on ebay for £8. Will be worth more in a few years.
Boxing Weekly magazine (i think) from back in the 86 when Tyson beat Berbick.
That's about it tbh, need to add to it.

Re: memoribilia - what have you got?
I also have a program from the Forum (Inglewood) autographed by Azumah Nelson, Yori Boy Campos, and Said Skouma. Yori Boy wanted me to pay him $5, but his trainer, who was with him, told him to not be an ass. (This was not long after the Trinidad fight). Skouma told me that, since I recognized him, I needed a hobby.
