Duran

One of the greatest fighters in history – pound for pound, Panamanian Roberto Duran rivaled Sugar Ray Robinson as one of the finest puncher-boxer combinations in the sport of boxing. Fighting in five decades, Duran’s smoldering intensity was legendary – but his famous “no mas” championship fight with another “Sugar Man,” Sugar Ray Leonard in 1980 also indelibly stamped his legacy.

This month, we’ll speak about one of the greats in American sport history- and America’s first minority champion in the world of tennis, Ricardo “Pancho” Gonzales from Los Angeles, California,  Though often forgotten in the age of today’s media coverage of superstar tennis players like Serena Williams and Roger Federer,  Gonzales was  big, strong, smart, fast, athletic- and both feared and admired by peers.  The self-taught Gonzales, who died 1995, dominated the game in the 1950’s and played through-out the 60’s in the wooden-racquet era.  Though a complicated and difficult personality, his peers often remarked that no-one in the game had a competitive fire like Gonzales.
