EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this iconic print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the intense clash between two boxing legends - Alf Mathews and Ian McKenzie at the historic Free Trade Hall in Manchester. The year is April 1964, and the atmosphere is electric with anticipation as these fierce competitors step into the ring. In this particular moment frozen in time, we see a remarkable display of skill and determination. As Alf Mathews unleashes a powerful right hook towards his opponent, Ian McKenzie swiftly defends himself with an impressive two-handed technique. It's a split-second maneuver that saves him from certain impact. Both fighters are known for their unwavering resilience and unyielding spirit, making this match one for the history books. Although McKenzie managed to evade Mathews' blow on this occasion, it was ultimately Mathews who emerged victorious when the referee decided to halt the fight. This photograph not only captures a thrilling moment within 1960s boxing but also serves as a testament to the dedication and sacrifice required by these athletes. Their commitment to their craft shines through each sweat-drenched brow and clenched fist. As we gaze upon this image, let us remember these warriors who left everything they had inside that ring - pushing themselves beyond physical limits in pursuit of glory. This print offers us an opportunity to relive those exhilarating moments of sporting greatness.
