Thanks Fausto for reminding about Champion Alvares.
I remember him and his sons well. Tony was a toughie and nobody in Dhobitalao
messed up with him. I think he had brothers.
I played football with Tony and was often a witness to his fights on Cross
Maidan. He could punch a man down. He often reminded me of a young Cassius
Clay.
I also saw him play drums. He was good, but not as good as Tony, who played at
The Ambassador at The Churchgate, and a good friend of mine. Tony, my friend,
ofte played for Chris Perry.
