Book - 1

I would like to again remind boxing fans that there is a great publication written by Gene Aguilera called “Mexican American Boxing in Los Angeles.” It is an excellent read about the rich boxing history and fighters of the Los Angeles and Southern California area. Gene adds outstanding photos in black and white format, 128 pages, chronologically segregated into the different decades. This book is truly a collectors piece to add to your boxing library. To purchase your copy, contact Gene by email: gaguilera@ccombank.com
