Ring Trivia from David Martinez

I have always been fascinated by boxing trivia, ever since I was a little boy growing up I would forever ask questions & try to out wit my older counter parts in boxing.

Today as I am now the older one, I have the young witty ones that ask me, and it is such fun & so educational to be able to answer the many questions that are brought to me.

So, here are three questions that I will ask you, my many loyal boxing guests on my website. The answers will be available and posted on September 15th. Good luck & have fun! That is my intent:

a) Joe Frazier

b) Jimmy Ellis

c) Ernie Terrell

d) Jerry Quarry

2) Who is the ONLY man “officially” ever to knock down
