Dave-Sands
Dave Sands, born David Ritchie, (February 4, 1926 – August 11, 1952) was an Australian Aborigine boxer. He was born into the Dunghutti tribe. He was a middleweight, but held the Australian Light-Heavyweight and Heavyweight Championship titles at the same time. He was also a Commonwealth Middleweight champion, winning the title from Randy Turpin's brother Dick.
Dave Sands and Les Darcy are considered the two outstanding boxers in Australian history. Both were middleweights and both held the heavyweight title as well. They also both died at tragically early ages. Sands died in a truck accident near Dungog, New South Wales.
Dave came from a large family of boxers, who all took the name Sands as their boxing name. There were six brothers of which Dave was fourth. He also had a nephew who became a welterweight champion.
At the time of his death Sands record stood at 97 wins (62 by KO), 10 losses, a draw and 2 no-contests from 110 fights.
