In this framed photograph of brothers Mike and Pat McMurtry, they're being checked out by Dr. G.A. Drucker on Aug. 4, 1956. The two brothers are considered to be two of the best boxers to come out of Tacoma and they have both been inducted into the Tacoma-Pierce County Sports Hall of Fame. Mike won the NCAA heavyweight title in 1954 while boxing at Idaho State College and Pat was among the top professional heavyweight boxers in the 1950s. They sparred each other as kids growing up.Lexicon
