Boxing legend Sir Henry Cooper passed away today. A big loss to the world of boxing, sport in general and his many fans.

What will be best remembered for?
Knocking Cassius Clay (Ali) down only for Clay to be "saved by the bell" ?
Being beaten by the up-and-coming Joe Bugner. But was he really beaten or did the ref get it wrong?
Being the first to win the BBC sports personality of the year twice ?
