Cesar Brion may never be Heavyweight Champion few experts think he will-but he will be a successful boxer as long as he stays in the ring, and a successful businessman afterward.
Twenty-four-year-old Cesar is an intelligent and foresighted man, qualities which are not common in boxing. Gene Tunney still is regarded with some disdain by many of the boxing mob because he read Shakespeare, and Ezzard Charles among today's fighters causes some misgiving because he is literate and eloquent.
"I want to get a good educa- his shrewd little trainer, Charley tion, a well-rounded one." Brion Goldman, and Cesar's hard said.
