Tad Dorgan Makes Boxing Hall of Fame

The great Tad Dorgan has been inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Dorgan was the prominent sports cartoonist of his era, and greatly influential in several sports' rise from barely-organized violence and into the American mainstream.

Roberto Duran heads this year's class. There's a lovely poem about Duran written by the artist Tony Fitzpatrick in his book Hard Angels, if you ever get the chance.
