Description

An African-American male boxer stands against a painted wall with a mural of the same boxer behind him. The man, who is muscular and has black hair and yellow hand wraps, poses with his hands up in front of him. The mural shows a similar depiction of the boxer in the same position. The boxer wears black shorts and is shirtless. The blue wall is covered in a graffiti-like drawing. The lighting is even and casts shadows on the wall and the subject.
