Description
Emile Griffith signed 12x10 overall mounted black and white photo. Emile Alphonse Griffith (February 3, 1938 – July 23, 2013) was a professional boxer from the U. S. Virgin Islands who won world titles in three weight divisions. He held the world light middleweight, undisputed welterweight, and middleweight titles. His best-known contest was a 1962 title match with Benny Paret. At the weigh-in, Paret infuriated Griffith, a bisexual man, by touching his buttocks and making a homophobic slur. Griffith won the bout by knockout; Paret never recovered consciousness and died in the hospital 10 days late.Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
