Emile Griffith -vs Bernie Parent-
This is an 8x10 Photo hand signed by Emile Griffith. In March 1962, Emile Griffith and Benny “Kid” Paret met for the third time in a welterweight title fight at Madison Square Garden. After absorbing a series of unanswered blows in the 12th round, Paret collapsed and never regained consciousness, he died ten days later. The fight and its aftermath - including criticism of referee Ruby Goldstein and calls for the sport's abolition - are examined in the film, ""RING OF FIRE : THE EMILE GRIFFITH STORY"".
