    I'd be interested in gloves from certain fighters/eras but confirming authenticity would be a challenge.

    I collect some stuff here and there...not too much. Sellers want an arm and a leg for most merchandise. (Stuff worth having anyway.)

    I have a couple of signed bits....favourite is a contract signed by Saoul Mamby in the early 70s.

    I have just about anything you can think of from the late 80's on. Posters, tickets, stand ups, programs, signed pics, gloves etc. Mostly heavyweight stuff.

    I don't really see the point in collecting anything but footage.

    Well I have both. :lol: Back in my younger days, I would come home from work and always have fights rolling on the VHS. I have boxes and boxes of fights. I think Mr. Bill is or was the same way. Then Spongebob took over and the kids hog the tv.

    Yeah, and I like it when I see other people's stuff, but for me personally, I wouldn't part with a penny for some glove.
