Masterful Tribute, there Master!

Another reason I love the IBHOF. It's the one time that the old forgotten greats get to be remembered.

I admit the 1st time I went, I didn't really know much about a fighter named Rueben Olivares. A friend pointed him out, so I asked if I could take a picture with him. To see his face light up!

Spinks, Norton , Marlon Starling, & Curry were together...it was like a life-light popped on...if just for a few days. No matter how many people asked, they all accommodated. I escorted Lou Duva from one of those golf carts to the grounds, he was so frail- and when he got among the people...boy did he light up!

I never got the photo with Curry, there were so many around him. I know his cheek bones had to hurt from all that smiling!! I labeled him Donald "Smiley" Curry, the way the fans made him light up.
