An oldie

Here's an old photo from the archive... figured I should stick to the boxing theme! :P I didn't post this earlier because I got stuck about 15 feet or so from the ring and so had to use a zoom lenses. Most of the photos caught some great action, but it also caught the rope running straight through their faces!

Jesus Chavez vs Michael Katsidis on April 4th, 2009 at the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas.
