From Billy The Rat Catcher to the Boxer of Quirinal, their stories are as diverse as they come. One legendary encounter that still echoes through time is when Sonny Liston faced off against a young and determined Muhammad Ali. The Beatles themselves couldn't resist clowning around with Cassius Clay at his training camp in Miami Beach just days before this historic bout. The passion for boxing has always transcended boundaries. Englands Glory Matches were celebrated events that united people from all walks of life. It was during one such match that Sugar Ray Robinson showcased his incredible skills, captivating audiences with every punch he threw. Even Rocky Marciano had his fair share of ups and downs in the ring. Downed in the first round by Jersey Joe Walcott during their heavyweight title fight, Marciano's resilience shone through as he fought back to secure victory.

From fives court sparring sessions featuring Randall & Turner to British boxer Freddie Mills' signed postcard from 1941, these glimpses into training routines highlight the dedication required to excel in this demanding sport. And let us not forget about Joe Louis, whose meteoric rise in 1936 captured hearts worldwide. His skillful maneuvers inside the ring earned him admiration and respect from fans across continents.
