Rusty Rubin is a veteran boxing writer
I request that all readers refer to the end of this column and also do their share to help myself and others in the fight against cancer. I’m asking for stories of inspiration and miracles, not money. Your stories can help prolong and hopefully save many lives.
I can’t think of a better time than the Christmas season to share your blessings with those who are in dire need of help.
I think by now everyone knows the upcoming welterweight fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas could prove to be one for the ages, (or is it aged) mzk 최신버전?
We have two fighters who recently have been victimized by bad or horrible decisions, facing off for the fourth time.
Manny Pacquiao, 33, lost a horrible decision to Tim Bradley, and a case can be made that Juan Manuel Marquez, 39, lost two (or at least one) bad decisions against Pac Man.
Pacquiao, who is still itching for a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr., is a guy who always comes to fight. He never puts on a bad performance 다운로드.
Pac Man, a southpaw, 54-4-2, (38) stands 5’ 6 1/2” and has faced Marquez in three very close contests.
Marquez (54-6-1 39) who also lost a bad decision to Chris John in Indonesia, is also a guy who doesn’t know the meaning of the word quit.
No question, this fight will be a contest to see which fighter has the most heart as well as the most left in the tank.
The easiest prediction here is that it will be a great fight for the fans on hand and Pay-Per View, the hardest is to predict the winner.
Okay, I’m required by conscience to pick a winner, the fight will once again go the distance and there will be some blood spilled before the hand of Pacquiao gets raised by the referee 야후메일 다운로드.
Speaking of referees, it’s been a while since outstanding professional referee has been seen on national television. He is missed.
Glove 2 Glove: Former heavyweight champ Ken Norton can use your prayers to recover from a serious illness. Prayers are also requested for boxing guy Reginald Boucher, father in law of boxing writer Keith Teciera. Reginald is battling cancer.
Prayers for the return to health of outstanding boxing guys Alex “The Bronx Bomber” Ramos. Alex has done much to improve the welfare of retired boxers. Your prayers for him have worked in the past. Alex is still facing some serious obstacles 다운로드.
Health problems also facing another friend, Roger Davidson, who can use your prayers and ‘all the help he can get’.
Young ex-champ Paul Williams was involved in a motorcycle accident and needs your prayers for a full recovery. Prayers also requested for the recovery of former champ Rocky Lockridge.
Tony Triem is also in need of your prayers, as is L.H. Dalton and Marilyn Johnson.
Please continue to pray for my Aussie mate and Glove2Glove member John MacDougall, who had to deal with the recent passing of his wife of many years, Gwen 한국가요 무료 다운로드. John is also recovering from hip replacement surgery.
Also prayers for the recovery of outstanding referee Mills Lane and Denis Wilcox.
Please say prayers for Phill Grazide of Santa Rosa, CA. a big supporter of amateur boxing, who is suffering the crippling effects of rheumatoid arthritis.
Needless to say we need prayers for the return to health of former champ Gerald McClellan, who is confined to wheelchairs.
On behalf of these great fighters who have given their all in our great sport, we thank you for your ongoing prayers.
