Short and not-so sweet in this summer heat!

First, please sent out prayers for boxing good guy and my good friend Johnny “The Downey Flash” Ortiz. Johnny, who I have known for many years, is a compassionate human being.

His organs are shutting down and he’s in a hospice in Southern California 언어의 정원 자막 다운로드. He’s a battler, but this one, even with our prayers, will be hard to overcome. Hang in there Johnny; a lot of great people are in your corner.

I also request prayers for the mother of Eva Futch (widow of Eddie), who is suffering from cancer. It would mean a lot to her to know that we’re all lining up as her entourage.***

The big fight this weekend is from Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn N.Y. where super lightweight champion Danny Garcia takes on “Lightning” Rod Salka.

This is a fight that is attracting a lot of attention, as it features boxer-puncher Garcia against a fine boxer in Salka 심 타워 2 다운로드.

Salka, 31, has compiled a record of 19-3 but hasn’t shown any one-punch knockout power.

Garcia is 28-0 with 16 knockouts. He is five years younger than Salka and has a slight height and reach advantage.

If Salka can stay away from Garcia, he does stand a chance of pulling off an upset via decision.

But unless Garcia decides to box with the boxer, he should be able to walk away with his title in tact.

The fight will be shown August 9^th on ShowTime, and features a pretty good under card. Definitely worth watching.

Prayers requested for the recovery of friend Lora Martz from a broken leg 가변윤고딕.

I request prayers for the full recovery from a couple of serious surgeries for my long-time friends Doni Uren.

“I WOULD LIKE TO URGE THAT ALL OF MY MANY FRIENDS TO LIST THE FOLLOWING INFO ON YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PAGE AS WELL AS YOUR E-MAIL.

“HAVING BEEN BLESSED WITH SO MANY GREAT AND CARING PEOPLE IN MY LIFE, I HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO GET INVOLVED WITH NETWORKING; I’M JUST TOO DAMN TIRED AND OLD FOR THAT, ALTHOUGH I KNOW IT’S FOR A GOOD CAUSE AND THAT NETWORKING IS THE BEST WAY TO GET THE WORDS OUT.

“HENCEFORTH, ALL PROFITS FROM THE SALE OF ANY OR ALL OF MY BOOKS WILL GO TO THE SUSAN G. KOMAN FOUNDATION, AND BE USED TO FIND A CURE FOR BREAST CANCER.

“I ALSO PROPOSE A CHALLENGE TO ALL OTHER JOURNALISTS, BOXING OR OTHERWISE, TO DO WHAT THEY CAN TO SUPPORT ME IN THIS EFFORT. IT’S ALSO  A CHANCE TO CHANGE THE PUBLIC OPINION OF THE WORKING PRESS AND OUR SPORT, AS WELL AS DOING SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR WORLD.

Finally, “My 2014 New Year’s resolution, besides living long enough to finish this book was to spend the rest of my life by helping others, and I really need everyone’s help to do that. Just  by putting a smile on someone’s face helps to heal, not to mention giving yourself an uplifting feeling.

Please step into the ring with me to add power to all the voices that are crying out for a cure for dread diseases.

Keep punching, always….Rusty
