BOXING ON TV "The Fantastic Fifties: By brian Zelley
There was a time when TV boxing was a must view once a week
Looking back into the files of old boxing magazines of the
Fifties and early Sixties, there were always stories about
the fights and the fighters. Some may remember some of
the names. It is believed that the one with the most Television
bouts was RALPH (Tiger) JONES. But there were plenty of
names to drop into any discussion. At random some
were Al Andrews, Wes Bascom, Rocky Castellani,
Chuck Davey, Del Flanagan, Billy Graham, Arthur King,
Danny Nardico, Randy Sandy, Gil Turner. Chico Vejar,
and one of the West Coast TV regulars was Art Aragon.
But, we cannot forget the names of JIMMY SLADE and
JIMMY BIVINS.
