This print captures a historic moment in the world of boxing. The image showcases the intense match between Bombadier Billy Wells and Harry Reeve, two renowned fighters of their time. Bomb Wells, as he was famously known, reigned as the British Heavyweight Champion from April 24th, 1911 to February 27th, 1919. However, this particular bout marked a significant event in his career. In this action-packed scene frozen in time, we witness Reeve succumbing to Wells' powerful blows and finding himself sprawled on the canvas. The determination etched on both fighters' faces is palpable even through the monochrome lens of history. The crowded arena serves as a testament to the excitement that surrounded these legendary matches during the early twentieth century. Although details about this specific encounter remain unknown due to its mysterious origins captured by an anonymous photographer, it undoubtedly adds an air of intrigue to this already compelling piece.

This remarkable print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to relive a pivotal moment in sports culture while honoring those who dedicated their lives to mastering their craft inside the ring.
