Statue of Tony DeMarco, Boxing champion memorial statue in North End, Boston, United States.
This bronze statue depicts a boxer in a fighting stance and stands at the corner of Hanover and Cross Streets in Boston's North End. The sculpture captures the athletic form of the subject in a moment of readiness and strength.
The monument was dedicated in 2012 to honor a World Welterweight Champion who rose to prominence during the 1950s. This bronze work by sculptor Harry Weber marks a significant figure in boxing history of that era.
The statue honors a local boxer who shaped the sporting identity of the North End and represents the area's Italian-American community. It stands as a tribute to the fighting traditions that once defined this neighborhood.
The statue stands at a busy street corner in the North End and is easily accessible on foot from nearby restaurants and cafes. The location is central enough for a quick stop during a walking tour of the neighborhood.
The sculpture uses the professional name the boxer adopted at age 16 to pursue his fighting career. This was not his birth name but rather a stage identity he created for the sport.
