EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1950s, a time when boxing was at its peak. The image features two formidable boxers, Cliff Curvis and Bang Bang Womber (Danny Womber), as they meet for the weigh-in before their highly anticipated fight at Sophia Gardens Pavilion in Cardiff. The tension in the air is palpable as both fighters stand face-to-face, shaking hands with unwavering determination. Their muscular physiques are accentuated by their traditional boxing shorts, showcasing the physical prowess required for this demanding sport. Flanking them on the left is Dr. Jack Matthews, Medical Officer of the event, ensuring that both athletes are fit to compete in this intense battle of strength and skill. Meanwhile, standing between Curvis and Womber is Mr Albert Davies, Promoter extraordinaire who has orchestrated this thrilling match-up. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the spirit of Welsh sportsmanship prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to the dedication and passion exhibited by these sportsmen who put everything on the line inside that squared circle. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we can't help but be reminded of an era where boxing reigned supreme and heroes were made within those ropes.
