davemurphy Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I just found out about this today, I'd never heard of it before: http://0.tqn.com/d/gonyc/1/7/Y/R/msg_02.jpg Legends were made at The Garden, ghosts of great fighters haunt the arena. A life size statue of Joe Gans, lightweight champion of the world from 1902-1908 is located in the Garden's Club Bar and Grill. A century later boxers still rub Gans's outstretched left fist for good luck before their fights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
