Summary Ultiminio Ramos speaks in singsong and dances in the ring. The house at Compostela 16 in Matanzas, Cuba, is the birthplace of this young world champion, who made three successful title defenses. With nostalgia and grace, he recalls the time his opponent, "a real master of the corner," had to be hospitalized because he felt bad after the fight. Five days later, Davey Moore died, with many citing the metal ropes enclosing the ring and Matancero's powerful fists as causes of death. Through discipline in the gym, he forged his body, his spirit, and the heart to be the best, to be the most accurate. A forty-year record of friendship has served him well. His philosophy is simple, direct, and hard to forget: "to us, boxing is really beautiful, because it's give and take."
