He for me personally definitely is pound for pound the best of all time. See his memorabilia below:

Conclusion
Taking into account all the above options, they are all truly fantastic pieces of history to have in anyone’s home to display. I have one piece signed by Muhammad Ali which I will treasure till my grave no doubt, but sometimes it’s what the boxer or memorabilia will actually mean to you personally.
If you are looking to make an investment for future I would consider looking at those who have passed away (Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier etc) as there is only so much of their signed memorabilia that actually exists.

Hello Jamie. You have an interesting post. I did not know that such memories were being marketed by famous boxers. These things are all amazing indeed. They just seem expensive to me. Okay for a boxing fan – we can look at the problem from another point of view. Thanks for widening my horizons.

Hi Carmen, thanks for the comment! Yes some can be quite expensive, but that’s due to their historical value. There is cheaper options out there if you look into it.
This brings back memories!
I used to watch boxing while growing up and really like Sugar Ray’s style. It’s a good topic you have picked here.
20 years actually goes by very fast if you want to sell for a higher amount and some of the memorabilia will definitely make a corner, or wall stand out while you wait! 😉
Thanks for sharing this information. I enjoyed reading it.
It sure does Stella! Sugar Ray Leonard is probably one of my all time favorite boxers. You’re right, you could easily enjoy having it in your own home as you wait for the value to increase. They all make a good conversation piece in your home when guests are round too.
Thanks for reading!

Hello Jamie!
First of all, thank you for this amazing post about choosing one of many Boxing memorabilia!
Memorabilia is surely a great gift, and it can have so many stories and reasons behind it.
And each one related to a specific person or star is indeed a piece of art that you must have.
I myself would die to have one from Muhammad Ali, he is such an inspiration to me, and having one of his objects would be a dream! And I think the stars and items you listed are just amazing, especially for the boxing field.
Thanks again for this amazing post!
Keep up the great work!

Hi Georgio, thanks for the comment. I know they make a fantastic gift for boxing fans and every piece of memorabilia has a story behind it which make them so valuable.
Thanks again,
Jamie
I have heard about many great heroes, but I must say Muhammad Ali was the best among them all. His strength and accomplishment was superb. The death of this hero triggered my interest more in boxing. I know the fun and fulfillment behind going around with memorabilia from a great hero. Only that their prices can be expensive, but no price can be too high to purchase Muhammad Ali memorabilia because he was my adorable hero.
Thanks Stella, yes I think for many having something signed by Muhammad Ali is a true diamond in memorabilia options. Quite often this is what most people will want, its definitely worth the investment if you can afford it.
