A name I well remember from childhood, since he was my father’s favorite boxer, and my father was an amateur Army boxer, and I once asked him about Basilio, and he said “I’d hate to tangle with Carmen!” , laughing.
I can still see a newspaper photo of him with an impossible looking swollen left eye, almost totally closed.
Can anyone post it? It’s probably on Google.
I can too!...ya gotta love a warrior!
RIP Carmen!
