Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
I bought a collection of boxing gloves, and there are a few of them I can't identify. I'll post a few pictures as I go through the collection. If you can offer any help I'd sure appreciate it. I'll number each glove with the post so you can reply with that number so it isn't so confusing.
In advance, I appreciate any help!

Glove #2 - The 1998 Boxing Hall of Fame Inductees were:
Sammy Angott, Miguel Canto, Antonio Cervantes and Matthew Saad Muhammad. I can't find signatures by a few of these guys and I'm pretty sure it is Matthew Saad Muhammad but I thought maybe another pair of eyes can help me confirm this one.

Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
on glove #4, the one at the top is almost certainly bob montgomery, it is a shaky, truncated, slurred autograph, but looks like montgomery. I havent matched it to another one signed like that but it matches key features of other full, nicer montgomery signatures.

Re: Help Identifying Boxing Autographs
The last autograph on glove 4 is fighting harada, he signs it f. harada, and also in his native language and also in another way so what looks like maybe three signatures is actually only one.
Montgomery, Harada, Gomez were all inducted in IBHOF in 1995 so these signatures all fit.
