In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the intense world of 1980s boxing. The image captures three legendary figures in the sport - Kirkland Laing, Colin Jones, and World Champion Maurice Hope. Kirkland Laing, positioned on the left side of the frame, exudes determination as he vows to plug the leaks in his defense. With a steely gaze and clenched fists, he prepares himself for an upcoming battle that will determine his fate. Having previously held the title that now belongs to Welshman Colin Jones at center stage, Laing is determined to reclaim what was once rightfully his. Colin Jones stands tall beside him with a confident stance. As reigning champion, he knows that defending his title against such a formidable opponent will not be an easy task. Yet with unwavering resolve etched across his face, Jones appears ready for any challenge that may come his way. Completing this powerful trio is none other than World Champion Maurice Hope. His presence adds an air of prestige and significance to this momentous occasion at Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday 23 April 1981. This photograph encapsulates not only their physical prowess but also their mental fortitude and unyielding spirit within the ring. It serves as a timeless reminder of these boxers' dedication and passion for their craft during one of boxing's most exciting eras.
