The World Boxing Hall of Fame began in 1980, and lasted until 2009, with twenty-nine magnificent induction banquet shows 엔트리 코딩 다운로드.

I am happy to have attended fourteen banquets, from 1992 to 2006. During that time period, I was delighted to have met more world boxing champions than I ever imagined 다운로드.

On October 19, 1996, a large group of my friends from the Santa Barbara area all came down to the LAX Marriott Hotel for the program. This was the banquet that was just before I officially became a member of the WBHOF as Board of Director / Boxing Historian 다운로드.

Oscar De La Hoya was named the Fighter of The Year, and the whole event was electric, with many other boxing greats in attendance.

Here’s sharing a few photos from the evening … with myself (in order) they are: Archie Moore, Mike and Jerry Quarry, Eddie Futch, Dick Sadler, Carlos Zarate, Bob Foster, Armando Muniz and Genaro Hernandez – AND – my truly amazing group of friends that attended 다운로드.

A Lady, My Friend – Eva Futch

David Martinez, Eddie Futch, FLASHBACK

FLASHBACK *** This article was originally published on www.dmboxing.com on October 18, 2007

By David Martinez / Boxing Historian / dmboxing.com

In all my years following boxing, since 1961, there have been lots of people that have given me gifts for my collection, and believe it or not, after 46 years, I can honestly tell you exactly
who gave me what and when 다운로드!

This is a short story about just one of those boxing gifts that I recently received from a lady, my friend, Eva Futch, the widow of the late Eddie Futch 다운로드.

Most of the boxing world certainly knows who Eddie Futch was – he was without a doubt one of the all time top trainers and corner men in boxing… ever  다운로드.

He worked with boxers such as: Don Jordan, Hedgemon Lewis, Bob Foster, Joe Frazier, Virgil Hill, Ken Norton, Alexis
Arguello, Larry Holmes, Michael Spinks, Trevor Berbick, and Riddick Bowe – just to name a few  다운로드.

In my opinion, Eddie was best remembered for two things in his outstanding career in boxing, which were: on March 8, 1971, in what we in boxing know as the “Fight of the Century”, he guided Joe Frazier to a 15 round unanimous decision over previously unbeaten
Muhammad Ali; and in 1975 for his decision to stop the Ali vs pc용 카톡. Frazier fight, “The Thrilla in Manila”.

Joe Frazier could not see the punches Ali was throwing because of his swollen eyes after 14 brutal rounds.

In Rusty’s Corner – In Memory

David Martinez, FLASHBACK, Glove2Glove, R.I.P., Rusty Rubin

FLASHBACK – In memory of Rusty Rubin, one of my dearest friends, and that actually was my first boxing writer contributor to www.dmboxing.com back in July 2007 다운로드. Upon meeting Rusty in 1997 we stayed in contact through the years and I was so honored to have written several articles and fight results for his RingSports Magazine 다운로드. Here’s sharing his last article piece that was published on October 6, 2014 … Rusty passed away on November 11, 2014, at the age of 72, peacefully at his home in Reno, Nevada 프리미어 프로 무료 다운로드.

For my wedding present to David Martinez, along with my congratulations and support, I offer this column.

Martinez


The fight is a challenging one to predict 갱스터 리오 버그 판. The one thing we can say with reasonable certainty is that it will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York City on October 18.

This is a fight between the strong European power puncher Genedy Golovkin and veteran Marco Antonio Rubio .

Rubio, 34, has a two year advantage on Golovkin, stands a half inch shorter and shares the same reach. No real advantage for either one.

The hard-punching Golovkin is 30-0, with 27 coming by way of knockouts. Rubio has more experience with a 59-6-1 mark and 51 knockouts, certainly no slouch.

This fight is for WBA super middleweight title, the IBO middleweight championship and the interim WBC middleweight title.

So how do you predict a fight like this ? Rubio has fought better foes, but he is growing a bit long in the tooth and all those fights probably has taken a bit out of him.

All the stats are pretty much the same, and I don’t like predicting draws. Will Golovkin’s power make the difference, or will Rubio’s experience save the day?

I’ve got to go somewhere here, so I’ll just predict that youth must be served. Golovkin by knockout.***

On a further newsworthy issue, my good friend and head of the BWAA for twenty years is stepping down after doing yeoman’s work for the eight extra rounds . He goes out a winner. Well done, Jack.

Ken was loved by all that knew him, and his greatest gift was his kindness and generosity to those that were connected with him in life.
