British boxer dead at 76
Henry Cooper, a heavyweight fighter in the 1960s from Great Britain, died Sunday, two days before his 77th birthday.
Cooper had two bouts against Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali; one in 1963 and a second in 1966. He lost by TKO in both fights, but actually knocked Ali down in the 1963 bout, in front of his rooters at Wembsley Stadium.
