'''[[:Category:Art Aragon Gallery|Art Aragon Gallery]]'''

'''Art Aragon''' worked as an actor, notably in the Audie Murphy movie, "To Hell and Back," and in John Houston's "Fat City." He converted to Judaism late in life and is buried in a Jewish cemetery in Los Angeles.

Flamboyant both in and out of the ring, Aragon wore a gold robe and trunks and reveled in playing the villain. Often he would taunt a crowd into booing him, sometimes thumbing his nose at the audience after defeating a popular opponent.

"You ever get booed by 10,000 people? It's exciting," he once said.

He was equally colorful outside the ring, golfing with Bob Hope and counting as friends Marilyn Monroe and William Holden. He was married four times and had a high-profile romance with actress Mamie Van Doren.

His career was marred by allegations that at least some of his fights were fixed. In 1956 he was convicted of offering a $500 bribe to welterweight [[Dick Goldstein]] to take a dive in a Texas fight, but the conviction was overturned on appeal.

Aragon became a bail bondsman after retiring from the ring in 1960.

Inducted Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame , 1993

From Philadelphia Daily News:
July 8, 2003

Wesley Mouzon, noted ex-lightweight boxer, dies at 75
By JASMINE ELLIS
ellisja@phillynews.com

Wesley Mouzon was a fighter until the end. As a lightweight boxer in the 1940s he left opponents speechless as he quickly became known as the "chocolate blur."

Mouzon died last Tuesday. He was 75.

With 23 wins, nine by knockout, and 3 losses, Mouzon was a true athlete of his time. Born in Kingstree, S.C., a family move would lead him to become a Pennsylvania boxing legend.

The fourth of five children, Mouzon was born on Aug. 15, 1927. In 1933, when his family moved to Philadelphia he was enrolled in public schools.

The son of Eugene and Cloia Mouzon went on to pursue a career as a lightweight boxer and ose in the rankings until losing a 1946 championship match with Bob Montgomery.

At what seemed to be the end of his boxing career, Mouzon found love when he married Dolores Sizer on Sept. 23, 1951.

The couple moved to New York City where Mouzon earned an associate's degree from Taylor Business Institute while also working in dry cleaning as a silk spotter.

His passion for boxing called Mouzon back to Philadelphia where he and his wife settled.

He began to train many boxers, including Dwight Muhammad Qawi, formerly Dwight Braxton.

He also trained such notable fighters as Tony "The Punching Postman" Thornton and Anthony Boyle.

It was his great work with these boxers that led the Veterans Boxer Association Ring No. 1 to induct Mouzon into the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame on May 16, 1993.

Horace Watson, Mouzon's nephew, recalls his uncle's reaction to the honor, "He was surprised that he was honored and that people in the game still remembered him."

Upon the loss of his wife in 2000, Mouzon accepted Christ as his personal savior.

He was described by family as a strong-willed, upbeat and happy person.

Mouzon leaves a son, Lamont; sister, Flossie Smith; brother Robert; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives, and friends.
