EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to January 13th, 1959, as Henry Cooper, the new British and Empire Heavyweight boxing champion, gazes out from behind his dark glasses at the annual Variety Club of Great Britain sports celebrities lunch held at the prestigious Savoy. The intensity in his eyes is palpable as he reflects on his recent victory over Brian London that earned him the coveted title. Cooper's rugged features tell a story of determination and resilience. His black eye and swollen face bear witness to the grueling battles he has fought inside the ring. Yet, despite these visible signs of physical hardship, there is an undeniable aura of strength surrounding him. The portrait captured by Terry Fincher showcases not only Cooper's sporting prowess but also his unwavering spirit. As he dons sunglasses to shield himself from prying eyes, one can't help but wonder about the thoughts racing through his mind – perhaps contemplating future opponents or relishing in past triumphs. This image serves as a testament to Cooper's indomitable character and enduring legacy within the world of boxing. It immortalizes a moment when history was made and reminds us all that true champions are forged through perseverance and sacrifice.
