    Yeah, boxing is often a topic in the shop I go to.

    As a matter of fact, my barber is the cousin of Imamu Mayfield. Mayfield comes in there a lot.

    On a BLACK Mainstream Level, REED Doesn't Recall Boxing Being Talked About as Much Since Maybe the Tyson-Roy Exhibition...Or the Tank-Santa Cruz KO, Whichever Occurred More Recently...

    Not Nearly to THAT Extreme, but the Passing of Marvelous Marvin Hagler Is ON the Black Mainstream Radar for Sure...A PLEASANT Surprise to REED...

    REED Used to Make a NICE Bit of Pocket Money Slangin' Bootleg VHS Boxing Videos @ Barbershops (& Boxing Gyms, Of Course)...

    Those were the Days...

    Mayfield was one of the few guys I can remember who was KOd by a punch to the neck. From the anti vaxer hitman

    He's a good dude. Never had a lengthy convo with him, but we've made small talk a few times he came in for a cut. He runs a local gym.

    I might add that Mayfield isn't the most famous athlete who frequents the barbershop I go to. That title would go to one JR Smith.

    True. Also, you would think that Hagler probably wasn't the favorite among barbers
