EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1955, we are introduced to the formidable Kitione Lave, a 21-year-old Tongan heavyweight boxer. Standing tall and proud, his muscular physique exudes strength and determination as he poses for the camera. With boxing gloves resting on his hips, it is evident that Kitione is ready to take on any opponent in the ring. But there's more to this talented athlete than meets the eye. In a surprising twist, Kitione also reveals his musical side by holding a guitar with ease. This unexpected combination of sportsmanship and artistic flair showcases his versatility and passion beyond just boxing. The image transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1950s, an era defined by its iconic fashion trends and cultural movements. As we admire Kitione's confident stance against a backdrop of palm trees swaying in the breeze, we catch a glimpse of life in Tonga during that time. Captured by photographer Clements for Memory Lane Prints, this photograph serves as an enduring testament to Kitione Lave's legacy both inside and outside of the boxing ring. It reminds us that individuals can possess multiple talents while breaking stereotypes along their journey towards greatness.
