    sugar ray leonard-speed bag signing

    Hi everyone!

    I'm over here in the uk & shortly i will be going to a dinner event with SUGAR RAY LEONARD as guest speaker & lucky for myself i know the promoter that has organised the event!
    I was thinking of taking along my everlast 4214 brown leather olympic edition speed bag (30yrs old approx & never used) & getting it autographed by (i am sure you will agree) one of boxing's true great's! & just wanted anyone's thought's on this, The bag is only used for display anyway so i thought this would be a great touch ( i'll post a pic on here as soon as i have time).

    Kind regards

    Martin

      Go for it! I can't believe the day I met him at a sporting goods show in Orlando Fla. I did NOT have speed bag with me to get signed.

                    You haven't seen this picture? It's the untouched version from a sporting goods show Alan attended years ago.
