SONNY BONO vs LUIS SANTIAGO
|
By
Michael J. Riley: The mood was electric. Heavy bags were screaming
from the fury of thunderous blows. The speed bags sounded like
the footsteps of a battalion of soldiers marching into battle.
Don’t come here if you are not for real. Where is here?
I had just arrived at the training facility of Clarence “Sonny
Bono” Taylor.
Sonny
and his manager greeted me with their usual cordiality and granted
me permission to take the photos for this story. From the moment
I arrived until my departure, there was no question in my mind
that this camp is preparing for war. The grunts and the sweat
told me that and a picture is worth a thousand words.

| Somebody
is going down on March 31 and Team Bono is determined
that it won’t be their fighter. Facing Sonny in
the apposing corner is Luis Santiago. A formidable challenger
in his own right, Mr. Santiago brings experience and a
winning record into the ring. When the two meet at the
Lancaster Conference Center in Lancaster, Pennsylvania,
fans can expect a memorable clash between two evenly matched
boxers. |
