“Calm before the storm ⛈️ “ The weigh in and press conference for one of the biggest most iconic boxing matches in history with “sugar” ray leonard vs “marvelous” Marvin hagler!! 80’s boxing was just something special

For all the FOOLs who have asserted that #boxing is healthy and that a reboot isn't necessary. For all trying to preserve a broken business paradigm and a lawless, ungoverned, inappropriately regulated sport, digest this ⬇️. Understand that here is where #boxing stands.

43 years ago Aug 12: Salvador Sanchez, 23, WBC featherweight champion, dies tragically in early-morning car crash in native Mexico. He was in training for a 9/15 rematch with Juan LaPorte & in talks to fight Alexis Arguello. He is arguably the greatest Mexican boxer in history.

Rarely in sports does someone earn the “all time great” label at an early age. By 23, Sanchez did way more than guys like Tank and Shakur combined. It was a very sad day for those old enough to remember. Matthew Aguilar Adams Boxing Show Michael Montero

Good story here from 2011 on Salvador Sanchez’s former sparring partner and close friend who was almost with Sanchez when he died. mysanantonio.com/sports/columni…

Every fight been I’ve covered in Chicago (Morales-Diaz, Lara-Rodriguez, Dirrell-Jack, Fonfara-Cleverly, Smith-Fonfara, Vargas-Dulorme, Beterbiev-Johnson) has had an enthusiastic, diverse, knowledgeable crowd. Golden Boy - and anybody - would be smart to return. Huge potential.
