Boxer Aurelio Herrera fought opponents, obstacles

A famous name in boxing in the early 1900s when no sport was bigger in Milwaukee, Aurelio Herrera generally is rated as the hardest hitting of all lightweights. He was a tawny, cigar-smoking, whiskey-drinking Mexican from Bakersfield, Calif., and he reached the top flight among the lightweights of the era on his heart and his punch, because he had little else.
