Golden gloves from Ali, Liston bring big bucks

The gloves worn by Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston during their infamous 1965 rematch and a rare century-old signed photo of Shoeless Joe Jackson fetched over $1.1 million total at an auction on Saturday.

Both pairs of gloves from the May 25, 1965, bout in Lewiston, Maine - won by Ali with a first-round knockout from what some saw as a "phantom punch" - were originally seized by George Russo, the boxing commissioner for Maine.

The gloves remained in the Russo family until a California collector purchased them several years ago before putting them up for auction.
