Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Sir Henry Cooper was born in 1934 and started his amateur career in 1949. He and his identical twin brother, George, grew up in their council house in Farmstead Road on the Bellingham Estate, before they were evacuated to Lancing on the Sussex coast during the second world war.
Known to all as “Our ‘Enery”, Henry Cooper represented Great Britain at the 1952 Olympic Games and was the first man to win three Lonsdale belts becoming British, Commonwealth and European heavyweight champion. In 1963, heavyweight boxer Henry Cooper lived and trained at the The Fellowship Inn next to Bellingham station in the lead up to his first fight with Muhammad Ali at Wembley Stadium. The life-sized, bronze-cast statue is situated at Bellingham on the corner of Randlesdown Road and the A21 Bromley Road, halfway between Catford and Downham. |
