Sir Henry Cooper

Our 'Enry' became British boxing's most beloved figure, his left hook that floored Muhammad Ali in 1963 creating one of sport's most iconic moments. Cooper's five British heavyweight titles and three European championships made him Britain's most successful heavyweight of his era. His two fights with Ali showcased incredible bravery against arguably boxing's greatest, earning respect worldwide despite defeats. The Bellingham-born fighter's 55 professional fights brought entertainment and dignity to British boxing during a golden period. His rivalry with Brian London and fights at Wembley Stadium made him a household name beyond boxing circles. Cooper's knighthood in 2000 recognised not just sporting achievement but his role as British sport's perfect gentleman.
