Rick Farris

The following photos were sent to me by Frank Baltazar Sr, who has been more than generous with his photos. Rick Farris, as I have mentioned before is a former amateur and professional boxer back in the 1960’ and 1970’s. He was, for a time, trained by Mel Epstein, my former trainer. Farris’ is a boxing historian and writer and much of his writings on boxing in Los Angeles, Southern California and the Main Street Gym can be found at Cyber Boxing Zone.
