Heavyweight contender Ron Stander circa 1972. Known as The Bluffs Butcher, Stander fought Joe Frazier for the World Heavyweight Championship in Omaha, Nebraska. He also knocked out fearsome puncher Earnie Shavers and met the likes of Ken Norton, Jack O'Halloran, Manuel Ramos, Thad Spencer, Jeff Merritt, Gerri Coetzee and James "Quick" Tillis. In his 13 year career, Stander fought 61 bouts, winning 37 and knocking out 28 men.
A harder man is tough to find.
One day, at the end of December, a client came to me for a photo shoot and said "I don't have a New Year's mood"...
⠀
I asked how the "New Year's" mood differs from any other? After thinking a little, he said that he was probably waiting for someone to come and organize everything, like his parents did in childhood. To which I replied that we ourselves are responsible for our mood, for the holiday, actions…
Is that right? We are adults, and everything is in our hands. No need to wait, you need to act.
⠀
That's when my client came to life...
⠀
We were fooling around on the set like children, the client threw streamers, tried on different costumes, masks, improvised and was not afraid to seem ridiculous! Laughed 😂 to tears and had a great time! And the shots " came out just WOW, crazy!
I can say with full confidence that after the photo shoot held then, there was one more person in the world with a New Year's mood.
⠀
Do you want the same?

So what are you thinking as Day One approaches Midnight? 🤔 This is the most unusual Las Vegas Venture you have ever instigated. This is so unusual that you didn’t bring any of your Canon DSLR equipment. You are here in Las Vegas to spend leisure time with your elderly mother, who is flying in from the Pacific Northwest on Sunday, but you arrived two days early. And of course you couldn’t resist spending quality time at Resorts World, formerly the Stardust Hotel & Casino. Tell the Truth. Are you disappointed that you didn’t have plans to attend the 8pm Janet Jackson Show at Resorts World? Are you disappointed that you didn’t even attempt to get into the 9pm Barry Manilow Show at the Westgate? Is it too late to try to get in upstairs at Coyote Ugly? Should you try to get in some late-night Salsa and Merengue Dancing here at Gonzalez y Gonzalez? Maybe you can find a pretty lady here who knows how to dance Mambo and Salsa? Or maybe you should go to bed and rest for tomorrow? 🤔 You see? This is what happens when you have no plans. 😏
Try not to miss the Big Fight tomorrow night between Canelo and Crawford! You probably can't get a ticket to Allegiant Stadium, but the boxing match will likely be televised in one of the big sports bars on the Strip.

“Battle Royal” ca: 1910-1915 boxing event with five boxers in the ring at one time. The last boxer standing was the winner. Location, people, event, and photographer are all unidentified.
“It was announced in the newspapers as an “Athletic Show” and it began with a “battle royal” boxing bout among five boxers. Five burly men, stripped to the waist, entered a roped arena on a platform. At the stroke of the bell two couples immediately began sparring. The fifth man then pitched into one of the boxers who seemed to be having the best of it, thus breaking up the pair. The released man turned to the other group and picking out one of the men began without warning to punch him. And so the fight proceeded. No matter how cleverly a man might be holding his own he was always in danger of having someone come at him from behind with a none too well padded fist. Scientific boxing was not in evidence. The contest was one of brutal physical endurance. When a man could keep it up no longer he left the ring and the winner was the man who stayed in longest. As announced, the winner was to receive $4.00, the second place man $2.00, and the third $1.00.
(Recreation in Springfield, Illinois 1914)”.
“1899 Jack Johnson moved on to Springfield, Illinois, where he met ex-bantamweight Johnny Connor, a saloon owner who put on twice-a-month boxing shows. Connor hired Johnson as the fifth man in a "battle royal" that was to be the opening card in the next event. (Battles royal were a spectacle of the Jim Crow South in which several black men were gloved, blindfolded and placed in a ring. The last man standing won the purse, usually a handful of coins thrown from the all-white audience.) Johnson was the last man standing, and won $1.50, which he had to turn over to the white "manager" who had gotten him the fight.”
Maureen Shea ("The Real Million Dollar Baby") lands a crushing left to the face of opponent Diana Ayala, the columbian who fights for the World Title Featherweight Championship in Los Mochis, Mexico on December 10th, 2011. Maureen Shea went on to win the Title!
