HISTORY: Oscar Natalio "Ringo" Bonavena (September 25, 1942 – May 22, 1976) was an Argentine heavyweight professional boxer with a career record of 58 wins, 9 losses and 1 draw. A rugged, wild-swinging puncher, he was nicknamed "Ringo" because of his Beatles haircut, and enjoyed professional success in both Argentina and the United States. He is remembered for giving Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali hard fought bouts. Offered here is an original wire photo of Oscar Bonavena taking a break from training for his 1972 bout with Floyd Patterson and meeting with Argentine sailors from the A.R.A. 25 de Mayo ship.
