angelo_dundee.jpgWelcome back to one of our 4 series running at Best Homes in Broward, Living near the Stars.  We love bring in you the opportunity to live near the stars without having to pay the price tag you would expect to pay for the privilege.  Today we are going to take a look at another famous Weston, Florida neighbor of Dan Marino, Angelo Dundee. 

Angelo Dundee, born Angelo Merena on August 30, 1921 in Philadelphia, is famous for training the boxing legend, Muhammed Ali and supported Sugar Ray Leonard when he began his career.   He took up with Muhammed Ali in 1960 and stayed with him for over 20 years.  He is known for his heart.  He kept Muhammed Ali going when he wanted to leave boxing as well as bailing numerous people out financially regardless of his financial status.  According to Fightmaster.com, even Howard Cosell has been quoted as saying of Dundee " He is the only man in boxing I would entrust my own son."  His fine reputation in the boxing world is second only to his compassion for wanting to teach the fine art of sportsmanship before boxing. 

Angelo Dundee lives in Weston with his wife, Helen.  Their home is estimated to be ab out $400,000 and has called Weston home for years.  We are so glad to have him around and you too can live near the stars with ease.  Who says you have to live in Hollywood t see stars.  Be careful who you bump into down here.  They just might be famous!

Talk to you later,

Christine
