Passage 6.2.9
ἐπίγραμμα δὲ τὸ ἐπὶ τῷ Σαμίῳ πύκτῃ τὸν ἀναθέντα μὲν ὅτι ὁ παιδοτρίβης εἴη Μύκων καὶ ὅτι Σάμιοι τὰ ἐς ἀθλητὰς καὶ ἐπὶ ναυμαχίαις εἰσὶν Ἰώνων ἄριστοι, τάδε μὲν λέγει τὸ ἐπίγραμμα, ἐς δὲ αὐτὸν τὸν πύκτην ἐσήμαινεν οὐδέν.
The inscription on the statue of the Samian boxer tells that Mykon, the trainer, set it up, and that the Samians are the best of the Ionians, both in contests of athletics and in naval battles. Such is the content of the epigram, but about the boxer himself it makes no reference at all.
