#WBCTalks had the privilege and honor to have a very special guest with us. …Legendary Ring Announcer, Jimmy Lennon Jr.
Jimmy talked about his also legendary father, Jimmy Lennon Sr, also about Julio Cesar Chavez and how their careers were always linked, as his first title fight announcing was Julio´s first title fight versus Mario “Azabache” Martinez.
Jimmy recalled Mike Tyson vs. Buster Douglas, about the influence of his father, about his great friends in the boxing family and dozens of brilliant anecdotes during his legendary and one of a kind Ring Announcer career.
He talked about the fighters he has admired the most and also the classic fighters he liked. He discussed the great quality world champions he has met during these years. Without any doubt, Jimmy Lennon Jr. is a true gentleman.
We want to sincerely thank Jimmy Lennon Jr. in joining this initiative, which aims to help, engage, entertain and bring knowledge to the boxing community during these hard times.
If you didn’t have the chance to check it out, we strongly recommend you do so, as it was rather amazing.
