On November 4th , 2016 I had the honor to be in the same room with 500 of the "movers and shakers " of Illinois boxing. Once again, the Illinois Boxing Hall of Fame held their banquet and induction ceremony for the Class of 2016 twenty- five inductees at the Abbington Distinctive Banquets located in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. As always , it was a great honor for me to capture images of so many of the Boxing Greats of Illinois both past and present.
