Henry Cooper dies aged 76
Our 'Enry died of heart failure on Sunday.
Possibly best remembered for knocking a young Mohammed Ali* onto his bum. Famously Ali said he was hit so hard 'My ancestors in Africa felt it'.  RIP Henry. *Then known as Cassius Clay.

Re: Henry Cooper dies aged 76
Very sad news, saw it last night. Even bigger shame as I used to see him out all the time as he lives less than a mile down the road and is/was president of Nizels golf club where I was once junior captain...
RIP (he had absolutely huge hands!)
