I bought a collection of boxing gloves, and there are a few of them I can't identify. I'll post a few pictures as I go through the collection. If you can offer any help I'd sure appreciate it. I'll number each glove with the post so you can reply with that number so it isn't so confusing.

In advance, I appreciate any help!

Glove #2 - The 1998 Boxing Hall of Fame Inductees were:

Sammy Angott, Miguel Canto, Antonio Cervantes and Matthew Saad Muhammad. I can't find signatures by a few of these guys and I'm pretty sure it is Matthew Saad Muhammad but I thought maybe another pair of eyes can help me confirm this one.

Ok, I have confirmed glove #2 is Matthew Saad Muhammad as I originally suspected. Still need any help on glove #1 and I'll post some more in the next day or two hoping to get lucky!

I have asked a boxing auto expert I know to come over and help you out
Knowing baseball autos (me) is highly different then boxing

on glove #4, the one at the top is almost certainly bob montgomery, it is a shaky, truncated, slurred autograph, but looks like montgomery. I havent matched it to another one signed like that but it matches key features of other full, nicer montgomery signatures.

Ken, thank you for inviting Travis to join the GUU community. You introduced me to Travis previously and I am really thankful for the help he provided me. His knowledge of the boxing space and his willingness to help others is a wonderful combination.

Thanks Travis for all your help.

The last autograph on glove 4 is fighting harada, he signs it f. harada, and also in his native language and also in another way so what looks like maybe three signatures is actually only one.

Montgomery, Harada, Gomez were all inducted in IBHOF in 1995 so these signatures all fit.

Mercante also inducted in 1995 in the non-participant category so this is a 1995 HOF glove.

Sorry to post on an old thread but I have a pair of boxing gloves that have Don Kings signature along with a few boxers. I have no idea what they say however. I believe they are from the 90's. I will put pictures on the next post if anyone can help me!

I'm guessing that person likely won't see your post, since they only posted twice (both in this thread in December).
