As part of this road trip, I’ll be examining the boxing history of various towns, some of their great fighters and great fights. First up, the Mile High City. The story Tialano “Tito” Tovar tells is a story you could hear in any boxing gym in America. As we walk through the gym, he puts it bluntly: “Boxing saved me.”.
