EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph from 1925, the legendary British boxer, Dick Smith (1886-1950), is seen sharing a moment with two young boxing prodigies at the Stable Lads Annual Tournament. The image, captured during the Roaring Twenties, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of boxing during this era. Dick Smith, a formidable figure in the ring, held the British Light Heavyweight title from 1911 to 1913 and challenged for the Heavyweight Championship of the World in 1913. His impressive boxing career spanned over two decades, and he retired in 1921. Here, he is shown in a more compassionate and nurturing role, mentoring the next generation of boxers. The two young boys, dressed in boxing gear and wearing determined expressions, appear focused and eager to learn from the master. The setting of the Stable Lads Annual Tournament adds an extra layer of intrigue to the scene. The tournament, organized for the children of stable hands and farm laborers, provided an opportunity for these young boys to experience the thrill of competition and learn valuable life skills. This photograph, taken in 1925, is a poignant reminder of the enduring appeal and transformative power of boxing. It captures the spirit of camaraderie, determination, and the passing of knowledge from one generation to the next. The image is a testament to the resilience and grit of these young boxers, who, like Dick Smith before them, were determined to make their mark in the world of boxing.
