1942-2016

My first hero. My first champion. After I bought my home I moved heaven and earth to purchase this photo. It hangs on the wall along my staircase. He taught me confidence... to believe in myself... to never live in fear... how to mentally defeat an opponent or overcome an obstacle before you even step into the arena. No heavyweight was as quick with the glovework. He was Picasso... and the ring was his canvas.

He was... The Show.

Heaven, open your gates... The Champ is here.
