Description

Homer Amundson holds up some punching pads for Mike McMurtry to hit, giving him a good workout. Amundson trained both Mike as a young kid and his older brother, Pat, helping them develop into two of the best boxers to ever come out of Tacoma. “A lot of credit for our success can be traced right back to Homer,” Pat said. “He was one of the best teachers I've ever known.”
