The gloves will be part of Heritage Auctions’ July 31 auction in conjunction with the annual National Sports Collectors Convention, which this year takes place in Cleveland. The gloves came from the collection of the late Hall of Fame trainer Angelo Dundee, who trained Ali and died at age 90 in 2012. His son, Jim Dundee, put much of his father’s collection of boxing memorabilia up for auction to help pay family medical bills.

The gloves sold for a public auction boxing memorabilia-record $385,848 in December 2012.
They were sold in the same auction for the same price as the gloves that Ali — then Cassius Clay — wore when he won the heavyweight world title for the first time in his first fight against Sonny Liston in 1964.
