Andre Ward vs. Sullivan Barrera, March 26, 2016

BOXING

(2012 - 2018)

These photos are collected from occasional moments ringside, training camps, and media days for both amateur and professional events. In my teenage years I would watch HBO Boxing (RIP) every weekend with my father, and it became an obsession that never went away.

Most of these were taken in the United States. See En La Luchita for an intimate look at a Cuban boxing gym in Havana.
