East Baltimore boxer Sheppard eyed for TV add ons
East Baltimore boxer Sheppard learned from Mack Lew in exchange for a painting. The film isn’t sold yet, and he considers adding fifteen minutes to boost TV appeal. He no longer trains at the gym but spars twice weekly with Johnny Longo, a former featherweight contender. Longo, who won 60 of 87 with seven draws, likens Sheppard to a solid six round pro. Maroger would doubt the boxing but praise the speed and learning.
