1948 Rocky Marciano Amatuer Championship Belt

1948 Rocky Marciano Amatuer Championship Belt

Rocky Marciano was the only man in the history of boxing to retire as Heavyweight Champion with a perfect professional record (49-0). Of course his amateur career wasn't too bad either. Presented here is the actual championship belt given to Rocky Marciano for his victory as an amateur in the Golden Gloves in Lowell, Massachusetts. The belt still has its original white and red sash which, although frayed, is perfectly intact. The center buckle states, "N.E. Golden Gloves Tournament Of Champions Lowell Sun Charities" and in each corner of the buckle are the words, "WGT HVY 19 48." Only one man could have won this belt: Rocky Marciano. Framed with a plaque which reads, "Rocky Marciano N.E. Golden Gloves Tournament Of Champions 1948 Championship Belt." The belt is approximately 35 inches long. The belt comes with an LOA from the brother of Rocky Marciano. One of the most historic and important items of memorabilia to be offered at public sale of this great champion. Additional LOA from Craig Hamilton/ JO Sports.
