Muhammed Ali’s 50 years old gloves which he wore when he won the world heavyweight championship title for the first time from Sonny Linston in Miami Beach, Florida, in February 1964 was on Saturday sold for $837K.
The gloves were kept by Ali’s personal trainer Angelo Dundee right after the legendary match, until his death in February 2012.
After that they remained at his son’s, who decided to sell them on the 50th anniversary of the fight to help pay family medical bills. Part of the money is promised to the Muhammed Ali Foundation. The buyer is still unknown as reports have it that he/she wished to remain anonymous.
The Legend Lives On!!!
