  No es el primero en mezclar boxeo y pintura. Hace unos recomendé en otro blog los enlaces a Ushio Shinohara, un importante artista japonés que se lo toma muy en serio:

  Born in 1932 in Tokyo, this artist was the leading figure in the revolutionary art movement “Neo-Dada Organizers” formed in the 1960s. His spirited, youthful and energetic works were at times created outdoors and often exceeding the limits of the canvas, raised a polemic around the definition of art of that time.

  Shinohara has recently participated in a television commercial of a pop drink alongside Fukuyama Masaharu with his most important work, the “Boxing Painting” in which he punches the wall with paint soaked boxing gloves. When this works came out for the first time, the art world discovered an exceptional talent who had no fear of satirizing works of leading American painters (such as Rauschenberg) in his own works.
  This exhibition features the vast and vivid painting “Doll Festival”(1966, collection of Hyogo Prefectual Museum of Art) which gained acclaim at such an epoque by its startling combination of Ukiyo-e expression and contemporary art.

  Yo lo prefiero a Robaina y a Posada Carriles.

  Sobre arte, poesía y boxeo, hay un antecedente importante: Atrhur Cravan. Buena esa referencia que propones, César.
