Floyd Patterson auto PSA/DNA COA 2 Time Heavyweight Champ FULL BODY POSE light blue background Signed autographed 8x10 - he was surprised by the SWEDE with the Hammer, but got his title back.... and he refused to hide from Sonny as his management attempted - two - "KO by Round 1" - that was what he got for standing up and being a man....... Sonny Liston in 1962 was a man nobody could beat in the heavyweight division......and Floyd being the champion he was, tried to fight him head on - but like Foreman vs Frazier, they were just a cosmic mismatch.Floyd late in his career beat a much younger Oscar Bonavena, that just amazed me....... it setup a second match with Muhammad Ali..... and hopefully a payday for Floyd that he could retire on...the "TKO by 7" result and swollen shut eye showed once again at age 37 that maybe boxing had better be left to the men 10-15 years younger, growing 10-15 lbs larger than him. Floyd Patterson always gave his all as his 2 time reign as champ attests.
In retirement Patterson guided many young men in the ring and out, including his son, Tracy, who won a world title.
