Rumble in the Jungle! Professionally designed image including an Ali and a Foreman personally signed boxing gloves.
On 30 October 1974, Muhammad Ali fought George Foreman for the World Heavyweight Boxing Championship. Foreman’s genius employed silence, serenity, and cunning. He had never been defeated. His hands were his instrument. Together the two men made boxing history in an explosive meeting of two great minds, two iron wills and two monumental egos. The great writer Norman Mailer put the critical moment like this: ‘A big projectile exactly the size of a fist in a glove drove into the middle of Foreman’s mind, the best punch of the startled night, the blow Ali saved for a career.
Vertigo took George Foreman and revolved him. He started to tumble and topple and fall even as he did not wish to go down. He went over like a sixty-year-old butler who has just heard tragic news, yes, fell over all of a long collapsing two seconds, down came the Champion in sections and Ali revolved with him in a close circle, hand primed to hit him one more time, and never the need, a wholly intimate escort to the floor’.
The Ali gloves were signed under license by either Steiner Sports or Stacks of Plaques (USA) in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The Foreman gloves were obtained from a prominent and renowned US collector. Further authentication has occurred by the AMA.
Actual item may vary slightly due to the signature placements on the gloves.
