expert pointers about boxing, numerology, and HATS. I love those hats. And the wall colors.
As spirited and surprising as the man himself.

This was wonderful!

In June 2009 Eamon McCabe spoke about a photograph he took for an article in the Observer 1984. It was one of his favourite photos of this great boxer – it was of his hands. The photo was so admired it was used many times and other photographers tried to copy it but Eamon McCabe had got the lighting absolutely perfect.

I know his name as my late parents were big boxing fans, they would have been very interested to learn about his background. Respect to you Sir!
