Shortly after Virginia “Ginny” Fuchs and Darius Fulghum won first place at The USA Boxing 2020 Olympic Team Trials, 1976 Olympian Chuck Walker sent a message of encouragement and congratulations.
“Respect and congrats from one of the 1976 Team!!! Stick and Move!!!”
Walker was a member of arguably one of the best Olympic Boxing Teams ever, the 1976 team. That team consisted of Leon and Michael Spinks, Sugar Ray Leonard, Louis Curtis, Leo Randolph, Davey Lee Armstrong, Howard Davis, Charles Mooney, Clint Jackson, and John Tate, along with Chuck Walker.
Ask a matter of fact, during the course of the two week, single elimination tournament, the 1976 team won 35 out of 41 bouts and brought home 5 gold medals and 2 silver medals!
