Boxing memorabilia

[Replies: 7]
What boxing memorabilia do you have? How did you come by it? Is there something you'd love to get your hands on if cost wasn't an issue?

> One other thing I would love to see HBO do because I work in communications I have a nice collection of Fight Posters that HBO prints but some I can't get my hand's on. I would love to see HBO actually put them in the store so we can purchase the fight posters. I think it would be a big hit for serious fans.

I will pass this along!

> I have an autograph American Airlines ticket signed by Ali. My great Aunt and Uncle were flying from cleveland and were on the plane with Ali and got his autograph they handed it down to me. My great uncle used to box in cleveland. I would love a worn pair of gloves or trunks worn by jones jr or trinidad that would be preatty neat but pricey.

Yeah, those would be pricey, but that AA ticket is a neat memento. I've never been gutsy enough to approach someone famous I've seen in similar or that type of situation and ask for their autograph.

What about the ring side girls??
Since 1990's I remember HBO used to minimize the screen to show the corner and fighter while the beautiful models reminded us of what round it was. How many of you guys like to be reminded again?
