Let's make this birthday one to remember.

74 years old (Born on June 05, 1950)

Happy birthday, Bonifacio Avila! While the medals at the 1972 Olympic Games might have escaped your grasp—clearly intimidated by a boxer of your style—the legendary stories about your time in Munich grow more impressive each year. Who needs gold when you stepped into that ring and put on gloves worth their weight in memories?

And let's not forget that 17-9-3 professional record—after all, perfection would’ve been boring anyway! Your enduring courage and spirit continue to be an inspiration today. May this celebration pack as much punch (without adding any losses) as every round you've fought. Cheers to many more knock-out birthdays ahead!
