US-AUCTION-SPORTS-BOXING
This handout photo obtained July 8, 2014 courtesy of Heritage Auctions, shows a pair of gloves that boxer Muhammad Ali wore in his 1971 Championship bout against Joe Frazier. The gloves with the setting price of $125,000 USD will cross the auction block on , July 31, 2014, in Heritage Auctions’ Sports Collectibles Platinum Night Auction at The House of Blues in Cleveland, Ohio. At the time, both fighters owned a legitimate claim to the Heavyweight Championship of the World, though only Frazier held the title officially. These gloves, according to Heritage specialists, are the most significant boxing gloves to reach the auction block since those worn by Ali to claim his first World Championship from Sonny Liston in 1964 drew a final bid of $836,500 USD in a Heritage auction in New York City. Like those gloves, these derive from the personal collection of Ali's renowned trainer Angelo Dundee.
