The Sweet Science lost a legend today, as Angelo Dundee, seen here preparing Ali for a training session, passed away.
He not only trained the G.O.A.T., but was also in Sugar Ray Leonard’s corner during some of the greatest fights the sport has ever seen.
Sugar Ray & his 15 round chess match that turned street fight against Benitez? In Leonard’s corner.
Sugar Ray vs. Duran in “The Brawl in Montreal”, & then, “No mas.”? In Leonard’s corner.
Sugar Ray vs Hagler, which, even today, is one of the most disputed fights of all time? In Leonard’s corner.
Sugar Ray vs. Hearns, when “The Hitman” was on his way to a victory before Ray pummeled him & forced a late stoppage? In Leonard’s corner.
godspeed, Mr. Dundee
