Hey, this post just hit home for me as well! My Dad passed when I was pretty young. One of my best memories was watching the Friday night fights on the "Gillette Cavalcade of Sports - Boxing"
This was back in the 50's with some great fighters during that era !! Fulmer brothers some of my favorites.

If you recall this show your really dating yourself! LOL
