Aragon/Miceli...Aug,4.1955.

Aragon/Miceli...Aug,4.1955.

In comparison to Archie Moore, who admits 38, and Sugar Ray Robinson, who recently celebrated his 35th birthday, Art Aragon and Joe Miceli, principals in tonight's headliner, are mere kiddies.
Aragon is 27, Miceli one year younger.

But neither could be called a Johnny-come-recently from the standpoint of ring activity. Art has had 84 fights, Miceli 72.
Of the five million residents in Greater Los Angeles, probably four million, nine hundred thousand have seen, read or heard about the Golden Boy. The other hundred thousand must have been goofing.

Aragon is a star of screen, TV, radio and Sunset Boulevard brawls. And of course, the ring. He has many admirers, and even more non-admirers, and both categories bounce for ducats when he's scheduled to fight.

One reason is that this guy doesn't bore you. Never mind the other reason.
It's not necessary to dwell on Senor Aragon's virtues, or vice versa. He's too well known to require embellishment.
