They are obtained from the single best source of Ali Fight worn (at the staggering price of $35,000!). These have been authenticated and photo matched by multiple parties/experts.

These were trunks from the Oscar Bonavena fight in 1970. Incredible fight! (Read about how Bonavena died for a very interesting story, off topic).

At this record cost for fight used trunks, fight used cards with no signature cost over $100 per to produce!
The card back states in which fight the trunks were worn.

BG

p.s- most companies in past have used training used trunks and called them fight used.

Those would be the fight used ones. These say event used, and then there are ones clearly labeled fight used. So there are 2 different used items here it would appear.

Marro said:

my quote was more too add about your question. He stated in the p.s, That training used items would not be used. Whats the difference between event and training? I saw the fight and event used and now am curious what the difference is myself.

Leaf said:

Event worn means worn by Ali, however not during a fight or "verifiable" training.
The items are absolutely authenticated as being worn by ALI, by Ali himself/Muhammad Ali Enterprises.

Nice idea!... It is hard to make a base set from boxes (25 boxes to make set if perfect collation)..
