I had one of Ojay Abraham's head guards when I was a kid but my Mum threw it out in the end because it stank. I also sold him a copy of Boxing News when I was working in Smith's years back. I should have got him to sign that!

Yeah, I haven't read anything about it since early last year actually so it might of all blown over and he might of forgotton about it.
Super domestic fighter in his day, great puncher aswell - produced some brutal knockouts - but just never seemed to be able to find that extra gear to succeed at world level. All respect to him though, very exciting to watch.

You're right but to be fair he should have picked up the WBC super bantam title against Willie Jorrin but got robbed.

I haven't got any signed stuff, but I hope to soon. He may not be british but I am looking into purchasing a ken norton signed book (a steal at $30!!!!!). Heres the link, where you can also buy a signed boxing glove.

Yeah he was extremely unlucky in that fight, should of got the decision, just looked at a couple of the judges and they seemed a bit dodgy - Franco Ciminale was one, and he recently gave Witter the nod over Bradley by 3 points, when he clearly lost by about 4 or 5 rounds. Ray Solis aswell has a few dodgy splits & majorities where he is the guilty party. That fight was actually Solis' last bout as a judge aswell, gave it to Jorrin by 4 rounds ffs.
Was unlucky against Chi in the first fight aswell, I believe he would of taken a split had he not had that point deducted?
Should of been a world champion.

My mates dad has a signed Randy Turpin glove which was ment to be one he wore against Sugar Ray Robinson (I doubt that) But personally i dont have any signed things.. although i do have ex Barnet player Jason Puncheons boots from his last game at the club... not the same thing but though it was worth a mention.

boys i know of an amazing piece of boxing memorabilia for sale and im tempted to buy just don't know how much i should offer ...
its a framed montage of muhammad ali, a picture of him and sonny liston signed by both. a ticket from one of the ali paterson fights signed by both and a larger picture of ali signed by him.
what do you think that's worth?
I've a signed boxing glove that reads
"David D Haye AKA The Hayemaker The Undisputed Champion of the World 15/12/07"
Zardoz, Connery must rue the day.....

I'd be vary wary mate, most of the Liston autographs are written by his wife Geraldine, real ones with provenance are very expensive
If all the items listed are genuine then they are worth a considerable amount of money, if the price is too good to be true then it probably is

I suppose gay jokes and pretending to mimic someone is funny to a certain kind of person, each to their own.

You like to assume a lot of things to try and get the better of me on this thread but I'm yet to be offended by any of it.
Yet I know the critcisms I aimed at you about your boxing did indeed affect you and that's why you keep coming back at me with nonsense.
And for the record I have no signed "stuff" cos one man's treasure is another man's junk. But if I did it would be a signed Jeff Thomas boxing glove. Made from 100% feathers I've heard. They're a rarity.

Jeff, you're a top poster and I have a lot of respect for you but this 'feud' is somewhat childish. Similarly, MrPlow is also a top poster but you're both making yourselves look bad with all this.
This is the Brit forum where despite our different opinions on boxing we respect each other. We don't need to stoop to the levels of the general forum.

I would tend to agree and take the blame for what was initially said last year but more often than not I only bite when poked and try to defend myself without the childish swearing and mockery than Jeff brings to the table.
I'll certainly call it quits if Jeff wants to........but he likes to banter and tear into me so he says.
