He signs in the sweet spot adding "Raging Bull"
Baseball signed: "Jake La Motta/ Raging Bull" in black ink. Official Rawlings American League baseball, Gene A. Budig, President. Signed in the sweet spot. Nicknamed the "Bronx Bull" because of his aggressive, charging style, Jake LaMotta (1921-2017) reached prominence when he won a 10-round decision over Sugar Ray Robinson on February 5, 1943. He and Robinson fought six times, with LaMotta winning only that one bout. On June 16, 1949, LaMotta won the World Middleweight Championship. He defended his title twice, losing it when Robinson knocked him out in the 13th round on February 14, 1951. LaMotta won 83 fights, 30 by knockout, and lost 19, four by knockout (with four draws). He co-authored his autobiography, Raging Bull (1970), which was adapted as a 1981 movie starring Robert DeNiro. LaMotta was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1990. Fine condition.
