Mexican-American Boxing in Los Angeles

                        

                                

 Had lunch with Gene Aguilera, author of “Mexican-American Boxing in Los Angeles”…It’s a great book that covers the Los Angeles chicano boxing community from the early days of Aurelio Herrera and Joe Rivers to the later days of Oscar De La Hoyo and Chicanito Hernandez, and in between there is Baby Arizmendi, Manuel Ortiz, Enrique Bolanos, Art Aragon, Carlos and Al Chavez, Keeny Teran, Gil Cadilli, Mando Muniz, the Montes brothers, Frankie and Tony Baltazar, and many more that made boxing come alive in the City of Angels in those golden years when the chicano boxer was a star….I highly recommend this great book.
