Fall Premier Auction 2014

Featured here is a wonderful replica of the official full-size official World Boxing Association(WBA) Championship belt, signed in silver Sharpie on the faux black leather belt by the legendary champions who crafted so much of their legacies in an intertwined fashion: Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns and Roberto Duran. Leonard added his inscription of "HOF 97" next to his silver Sharpie autograph on the 48-inch belt. Leonard's arch-rival Duran signed in silver Sharpie on the opposite side with "HOF 07". Tommy Hearns has signed next to Duran in silver Sharpie and inscribed his famous nickname "Hitman" and "H.O.F. 2012". The 48-inch black faux leather belt has an attractive burgundy trim with three gold-painted metal sculpture ovals, the largest 8 inches in diameter in between two smaller 4-inch versions. The center sculpture features a crown at the top that is lined with faux red and crystal gemstones. Underneath the crown are two boxing gloves and stick-figure boxers with a WBA enamel badge at the center that reads "World Boxing Association." The two smaller brass sculptures feature blank gold mirror-simulated plates as well as a repeat of the faux gemstone-lined crown from the center sculpture, only half the size. The belt features a white faux fur interior lining with back Velcro closure. Mounted over the back Velcro closure is a fourth brass sculpture containing an enamel WBA badge in Spanish that reads "Association Mundial De Boxeo." The belt is largely as-issued and problem-free, seemingly in Near-Mint condition.
