Nathan Beattie vs Milton Arauz headlines 1st August and 6 time World Champion Lee McAllister vs Edwin Palacios headlines 15th August

Following the success of the inaugural LET BATTLE COMMENCE, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA & NEON ENERGY DRINK, that took place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen last weekend, promoter Lee Mcallister has announced two more events in the series which will be broadcast live and exclusive on FITE TV on Saturday 1st August and Saturday 15th August 2020.

Back on the 18th July the fans of the pugilistic arts around the world watching LET BATTLE COMMENCE 1 on FITE TV were treated to the spectacle of the return to the fray by Lineal World Boxing Organization (WBO) Featherweight World Champion Scott Harrison, who faced and stopped Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Champion Paul Peers in a non-championship six rounder.

Prior to Harrison-Peers the fans tuned in watched an incredible Battle Royale between 10 time Kick Boxing World Champion Caitlin Foran, who was making her professional boxing debut, and Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Bronze Champion Jaime Bates, who stepped in as late replacement after original opponent Carly Mackenzie broke two toes in a riding accident the previous weekend. After six incredibly closely fought rounds Foran secured the victory by a close 58-56 points tally.

The third fight of the night was a fantastic all action War between undefeated Lewis Mulberry and Nicaragua’s Johnson Tellez. I’m sure those watching on TV were as enthralled with the action as much as myself, Mulberry’s ring name is “Machine Gun’ and believe me that is a most appropriate moniker, kuten 19 year old peppered the body of his far more experienced opponent with fast and powerful left and rights at a mega rapid pace. After six scintillating all action rounds, Referee Edward Law’s scorecard read 60-54 in favour of the teen sensation Lewis Mulberry.

Prior to Mulberry-Tellez Perth’s Adam Stewart (1-0-0) made his return to the ring against late replacement Nicaragua’s Alexander Zeledon, following an injury sustained by original opponent Liverpool’s Steve Sunners (4-0-0). Earlier this year Zeledon beat Manchester’s Dan Booth (4-1-0), so not an easy opponent, regardless of his negative record, varten 25 year old Stewart who returned to the fray following a three year sabbatical.

What a cracking fight, both protagonists went at it hammer and tongs for close to four rounds before Stewart’s power came into play late in the fourth. With around 25 second or so of the round remaining Stewart fired a massive Exocet to send the Nicaraguan to the deck, Zeledon was clearly in pain as he unsuccessfully tried to make it to his feet. Official time of stoppage 2 minutes and 40 seconds of the fourth round.

The opening fight of the night see 18 year old Heavyweight Liam Allan from Aberdeen make his professional debut against Puerto Rican Jose F Leon. Cracking opening round, but in the second Allan’s mature approach, that belied his tender years, really came into play.

As the second stanza progressed, Allan worked behind his superb jab to fashion some good openings, which he took without a second thought. Just about mid way through the second round one such opening enabled the youngster to let rip with a massive shot that sent Leon to the deck. Leon made the count and boxing resumed, then with around 30 seconds of the round remaining Allan created another opening and once again let rip and landed a big shot to send the South American to the canvas for a second time, the tough Puerto Rican tried to make it to his feet again but just failed to make the count, official time of the stoppage was 2 minutes and 40 sekuntia.

The first August event, LET BATTLE COMMENCE II, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA and NEON ENERGY DRINK, takes place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen and broadcast live and exclusive by FITE TV on Saturday 1ST AUGUST 2020.

The line-up for the 1st August is:

4) Super höyhensarja

Denny’s Kevin Traynor (2-0-0) will need to be at his best when he takes on the exciting Greek battler Paris Stavropoulos (2-1-0), who makes his first appearance in the UK.

5) Raskassarja

The final fight of the night will pit debutant against debutant as Craig Dick takes on Michael Bassett, both the big lads have stated they will be looking to make a big impression on the 1st August.

The second of the August events, LET BATTLE COMMENCE III, in association with PAPA JOHN’S PIZZA and NEON ENERGY DRINK will take place at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen and broadcast exclusively live on FITE TV on Saturday 15TH AUGUST 2020.

The line-up for the 15th August is:

1) Keskisarja

Six time, Five Division World Champion, and Promoter of the LET BATTLE COMMENCE series, Lee McAllister steps in to replace Malta’s Brandon Borg to face Gerona, Spain based Nicaraguan Edwin Palacios in the headline fight, definitely a much tougher fight for Palacios than what he was expecting, but the macho South American has stated he’s up to the challenge and to expect fireworks.

2) Höyhensarjalainen

Sensational Teen former Amateur Star Hollie Towl will be making her professional debut against equally sensational World Boxing Council (WBC) Muay Thai World Champion Natacha De Almeida from Switzerland, who will also be making her professional boxing debut.

3) Keskisarja

Nathan Russo versus Wilmer Gonzalez – this highly anticipated clash of the Big Bangers was originally due to have been on the first LET BATTLE COMMENCE show in the series, but had to be rescheduled due to a minor injury suffered by Russo. Without a doubt this is going to be a highly exciting all action contest, how long it’ll last is anyones guess, as Russo has won every fight so far by KNOCKOUT and Gonzalez has 14 KOs on his record, including a huge upset KO win over a certain World Boxing Foundation (WBF) European and International Champion last year.

4) Välisarjan nyrkkeilijä

Instead of the anticipated rematch against Dean Porter, Leeds’ Jack Jones, will now face Nicaraguan hard man Michael Isaac Carrero, following original opponent Porter having to withdraw.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Kesäkuu 4, 2020) - Kuten monet nyrkkeilijät, kaksi-divisioonan maailmanmestari "El Gallo" Jose Antonio Rivera hyvittää nyrkkeilyä elämänsä pelastamiseksi.

"Ehdottomasti,”Rivera suostui. ”Kun äitini kuoli, kun olin 10 vuotias, Luovuin elämästä ja päätöksenteoni heijasti sitä: roikkua väärän väkijoukon kanssa, mukaan lukien jengin jäsenet, alkoholin käyttö iältään 10 ja 15. Olin ehdottomasti menossa väärään suuntaan.

"En koskaan ajatellut minulla tulevaisuutta, ennen kuin aloitin nyrkkeilyn. On vaikea sanoa, mitä tekisin, jos en olisi koskaan nyrkistänyt, mutta muuten asuin, Olisin todennäköisesti jo vankilassa tai kuollut. "

Syntynyt Philadelphiassa, Rivera asui Puerto Ricossa ja Springfieldissä, MA, ennen kuin hän muutti Worcesteriin, MA, missä hän tapasi miehen, joka auttoi muuttamaan elämäänsä, Carlos Garcia, joka oli vastuussa erityisestä nyrkkeilyohjelmasta Worcester Boysissa & girls Club.

Rivera oli aloittanut nyrkkeilyn iässä 14 ½ kellarissa ystävänsä kanssa, Felix lopez.  Hän oli rakastunut nyrkkeilyyn katselun jälkeenRoberto Duran poissa tolaltaan"Sokeri" Ray Leonard ensimmäisessä taistelussaan. Nuori Puerto Rican-amerikkalainen käytti erityisesti amatöörinyrkkeilykokemustaan ​​valmistautuakseen ammattilaisille. Garcia, kuka on National Golden Gloves Hall of Fame -hallissa, laittaa hänet aloittelijaotteluun vain yhden amatööritaistelun jälkeen, jotta Rivera saataisiin nopealle radalle, koska hän ymmärsi, että Rivera haaveili tulla maailmanmestariksi ammattilaisena. Rivera päättyi a 35-15 amatööri ennätys, korosti pronssimitalilla PAL Nationals.

”Minulla ei koskaan ollut suuria amatööri-toiveita, mutta, tietenkin, Halusin voittaa jokaisen taistelun, jossa kilpailin,”Rivera sanoi. "Kerran en päässyt olympiakokeisiin, suunnitelmani oli kääntyä ammattilaiseksi. En tiennyt, kuinka paljon harrastajat houkuttelevat minut menestyväksi ammattilaisyrittäjäksi. Olen iloinen, että kuuntelin valmentajiani, muuten olisin kääntynyt ammattilaiseksi aiemmin, koska turhautun harrastajien politiikkaan. Vihasin menettämistä, mutta vihasin menettää vielä enemmän, kun tiesin, että minun olisi pitänyt voittaa. Kolmen vuoden kuluttua yhdessä (Garcian kanssa) harrastajissa ja saamassa paljon kokemusta matkustamisesta ympäri New Englandia, maassa ja jopa taistelevat Kanadassa, Näin kaikenlaisia ​​tyylejä ja lahjakkaita nyrkkeilijöitä, jotka auttoivat minua ammattilaisena. Carlos on minulle kuin isähahmo ja kaiken harjoittelun ja matkan aikana, hän oli aina pääni, rakentaa minusta hyvä nyrkkeilijä, mutta myös auttaa minua tulemaan paremmaksi mieheksi. "

Marraskuun 7, 1992, Rivera teki pro debyyttinsä, koputtaa ulosFrancisco Mercedes toisella kierroksella. Hän voitti ensimmäisen 23 ammattilaiset, mukaan lukien Massachusettsin osavaltion keskipaino - titteli vuonna 2001 1995. Hänen ensimmäinen ammattilaisen tappio oli veteraani Philadelphia-hävittäjälleWillie Wise (20-3-4), joka voitti kiistanalaisen 10 kierroksen split-päätöksen Foxwoods Resort Casinossa Connecticutissa. Rivera oli osoittanut olevansa enemmän kuin mahdollisuus ensimmäiseen tappioonsa, menettää läheisen päätöksen (98-95, 94-97, 94-96) vastustajalle, joka järkyttää meksikolaista kuvakettaJulio Cesar Chavez (102-3-2) vasta kolme vuotta myöhemmin.

Osoittaa samaa joustavuutta, joka pysyi Riveralla koko uransa ajan, kaksi taistelua myöhemmin Rivera pysähtyiGilberto Flores kahdessa erässä vangita Kansainvälinen nyrkkeilyjärjestö (IBO) keskikilpailun maailmanmestaruus. Rivera pidensi uuden voittoputkensa seitsemään, ennen taisteluita taaksepäin. Neljä taistelua myöhemmin, vaikka, Rivera rekisteröi ensimmäisen lausuntovoitonsa 2001, koputtaa ulosFrankie Randall (55-10-1) vuonna 10th kierros säilyttää Pohjois-Amerikan nyrkkeilyyhdistys (Myös) kruunu ensimmäisessä puolustuksessaan.

Nyt mainostanut legendaarinen Don King, Rivera matkusti Atlantin valtameren yli syyskuussa 2003 Saksaan, missä vain harvat amerikkalaiset pystyivät voittamaan. Rivera osoitti aikaisin, että hän tarkoitti liiketoimintaa, pudottamalla aiemmin voittamatonMichel Trabant toisella kierroksella matkalla voittamaan 12 kierroksen enemmistöpäätös avoimelle World Boxing Associationille (WBA).  Hänen hallituskautensa, kuitenkin, ei kestänyt kauan. Ensimmäisessä puolustuksessaan, Rivera hävisi 12 kierroksen jaetun päätöksen kotona Worcesterissä haastajalleLuis Collazo (24-1)

Rivera nousi yhtä painoluokkaa seuraavaa taistelua varten, osoittaa joustavuutta, joka oli katkottua uransa aikana seuraavaan taisteluunsa, myös kotona, vastaan ​​WBA juniorien keskipainoinen maailmanmestariAlexandro Garcia (25-1).

Seuraavassa taistelussaan ja kolmannen maailmanmestaruutensa ensimmäisessä puolustuksessa, Rivera pysäytettiin ensimmäistä kertaa ammattilaisuransa aikana, kirjoittanut uusi mestariTravis Simms (24-0), ja sitten hänet tyrmättiinDaniel Santos (24-0) kahdeksannella kierroksella heidän WBA-juniorien keskipainotuotteiden eliminoijansa.

Rivera jäi eläkkeelle vuonna 2008 vain palata takaisin sisään 2001, jonka jälkeen hän jäi eläkkeelle, kunnes palasi kahteen taisteluun Worcesterissä täydentääkseen ammattilaisuransa 50 taistelee, viimeinen tulossa iässä 46.

"Josen USA: n nyrkkeilykokemukset muovasivat hänestä sellaisen miehen, jolla hän on tänään, sekä sisään ja ulos rengas,"SanoiChris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Director. ”Hän kuljetti tietä vähemmän matkustaessaan maailmanmestariksi, ja näin hän osoitti sitkeytensä ja sinnikkyytensä, jotka tekivät hänestä erinomaisen esimerkin nykypäivän USA-nyrkkeilijöille. "

USA Boxing pays tribute to True Patriot Robert Carmody 1964 Olympic pronssimitalisti & Soldier killed in Vietnam

Jätä kommentti

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Toukokuu 21, 2020) – People all across the United States will rightfully pay respect to fallen military men and women during this Memorial Day weekend. One true American Patriot that USA Boxing will remember forever is 1964 Olympic pronssimitalistiRobert “Butterball” Carmody, who was killed in action three years later at the height of the Vietnam War.

Born in 1938, Carmody learned to fight on the streets of Brooklyn, where he lived before joining the U.S. Army in 1957, and where he took his first boxing lesson. A natural-born fighter, he was selected to represent the 11th Airborne Division, even after it was deployed to Germany, after he had earned his airborne wings, and Robert developed into a record 4-time All-Army flyweight champion.

Carmody also captured top honors at the 1962 International Military Sports Council and earned a bronze medal in 1963 at the prestigious Pan American Games. At the 1964 Olympic Boxing Trials, held at the famous New York’s World’s Fair, he upset flyweight favoriteMelvin Miller to earn a spot on the 1964 USA: n nyrkkeilyjoukkue.

At the Olympics, Carmody became a close friend of heavyweightJoe Frazier, the lone American to win an Olympic gold medal at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. The smallest and biggest men on the Olympic Team were buddies. Frazier, tietenkin, went on to become a Hall of Fame heavyweight champion, who was inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame this past December.

“He’s the type of guy you really need,” Frazier said in a 2006 ESPN.com interview. “I had some hard times, things was rough, but he was a guy that helped you out a lot. I loved him like a brother.”

Hampered by a bruised hand, the 5’ 2”, 112-pound Carmody had a bye in the opening round, tyrmäsiNam Singh Thapa (Nepal) in his first fight, took a decision (4-1) vastaanOtto Babiasch (Saksa), and lost in the semifinals by way of a questionable decision (1-4) to the eventual Olympic champion, Fernando Atzon (Italia).

Although he never publicly complained about the decision that may have cost him an Olympic gold medal, Carmody was visibly upset as he headed to the locker room, kunGeneral William Westmoreland hollered to him, “Good job, soldier!” Carmody, vaikka, turned and reportedly yelled back, “You dumb son of a bitch!"

Olympialaisten jälkeen, Carmody retired from amateur boxing with a 128-12 ennätys, returned home and rather than turn pro, he decided to stay in the U.S. Armeija, training a few teams at the International Military Sports Council, including the U.S. Army squad.

Strings were pulled for the 10-year military veteran, because of his imposing status as an Olympic bronze medalist, he didn’t have to go with his 199th Light Infantry Brigade when it was deployed to Vietnam. But even though he wasn’t combat trained, due to his training as a boxer, Carmody insisted on deploying with his unit on June of 1967, the day his son, Robert Carmody, Jr. was born.

A few weeks later, Staff Sergeant Carmody’s unit. D Troop of the U.S. 17th Calvary Regiment was on a routine six-man foot patrol north of Saigon. They were ambushed by Viet Cong guerillas and five of the six U.S. soldiers were killed, including Carmody, who was posthumously awarded a Bronze Star for valor. He became the first Olympic boxing medalist to die in combat.

“Robert Carmody’s selflessness and character extends far beyond our sport of Olympic-style amateur boxing,” said Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “A warrior in the ring, a hero outside of the ring—he showed the world the very best of what USA Boxing has to offer, and the USA Boxing Alumni Association looks forward to keeping his legacy alive.”

“On this Memorial Day, USA Boxing wants to recognize and honor our fallen heroes who have gave their lives in defense of our country, like Robert Carmody,” stated USA Boxing Executive Director Mike McAtee. “On this Memorial Day, I think it is important to also recognize all who have served in our military, which Billy Ray Cyrus stated, ‘All gave some and some gave all.’ Thank you for your service, we will never forget.”

Olympic Bronze Medal winner to Bronze Star recipient, Robert Carmody was a fighter true and true, as well as a man of tremendous honor, and a legitimate hero.

Undefeated boxing prospect Lamont Powell Escaped 36-bullet shooting without a scratch Founded “Gloves Up, Guns Down” hyväntekeväisyys

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (Toukokuu 5, 2020) – Undefeated super welterweight prospectLamont “The Blessed One” Powell, based on a near death experience 2-½ years ago in Providence, could easily have “Onnekas” as his nickname.
 
The 26-year-old Powell was a three-time Silver Mittens champion, who compiled a 45-4 amatööri ennätys, prior to turning two years ago. Hän on 5-0 (1 KO) as a professional but, due to the pandemic, he hasn’t fought since last August, when he won a 4-round unanimous decision over 14-7-1Ricardo Garcia.
 
Back on that near fatal night in 2018, Lamont and his uncle were sitting in a car in front of Powell’s home, when another vehicle suddenly and surprisingly stopped near them. Two unidentified young men jumped out and starting firing automatic weapons in Powell’s direction. Thirty-six rounds were shot, one hit Powell’s uncle in the leg, but Powell somehow miraculously escaped without a scratch.  
 
“No bullets hit me,” Powell confirmed. “I’m blessed and the reason for that is God and my mother – we lost her (Melissa) when I was 3 – who is my guardian angel. We were just sitting in a car, when two kids got out of a car and starting shooting our car. They had extended clips, but I don’t know who they were, and neither do the police to this day. My uncle was taken to the hospital and I had to start watching myself closer.”
 
Powell’s grandparents – Phillip Copper jaMary Ann Powell – brought him up, because his mother had passed away and his father was in and out of his life. His grandmother is his legal guardian and his grandfather has been like a father since he was a baby.
 
Naturally, after his surreal experience, Powell dramatically changed his lifestyle. Instead of running the streets and ending up like many people he knew, dead or incarcerated, Powell dedicated himself to boxing and created a charity for high-risk kids, Gloves Up, Guns Down, sponsored by Big Six Boxing Academy in Providence, where he trains with his grandfather as head coach, as well as having former U.S. Olympian boxerJason “Big Six” Tie hänen nurkka.
 
After the shooting somebody who had been shot in the head reached out to Powell. They met to talk about what they’d been through and soon createdGloves up, Guns Down, joka “blew up” overnight, according to Powell.
 
“Gloves Up, Guns Down” offers at-risk youngsters an opportunity to try boxing as part of an after-school program aimed to keep kids active and out of trouble. Kids are supplied with boxing equipment and taught valuable lessons through boxing with proper coaching and support.
“I started boxing when I was eight years old,” Powell added. “Boxing kept me off of the streets and busy. This is a sport outside of school that everyone can get involved in.”
 
Powell is promoted by Jimmy Burchfield’s Classic Sports and Entertainment (CES). Burchfield clearly remembers the first time he saw Powell, because he was so impressive running a hilly 2 ½ mile course around a pond at Lincoln Woods State Park.
 
“I walk there often, and I’ve watched everybody struggle running those hills, including top athletes, but I saw this kid running the hills without a problem,” Burchfield remembered. “I later found out that he was a boxer and knew I’d never have to worry about him being in top shape.  
 
“Lamont came to see me with his grandfather, who has been such a big part of his life, and laterRoland Estrada joined us. I was impressed because Lamont had a full-time job, vielä, he trains so hard. I learned that he came from one of the toughest areas of Providence and ran the streets as a kid. Yksi päivä, he called and asked if I would go with him to the Met School, where he was going to be speaking to about 150 kids and teachers. He spoke about running the streets and admitted that he had done it all. He said to me that if he could impact the lives of one or two of those kids, he’d feel happy, and that brought tears to my eyes. He was going speak at other schools, but this pandemic has put that on hold for now. His program is No. 1 in his life, helping at-risk kids so they don’t repeat what Lamont did when he was younger.”
 
Kehässä, Powell displays a stiff jab and, tietenkin, tremendous conditioning. And like most boxers, he believes that he’ll be a champion someday.
 
“Everything is going as planned with CES,” Powell concluded. “My grandfather has been my head coach since day one, Jason also coaches me, and Doc. Estrada is my adviser. Boxing came naturally to me. I just needed to put in the hard work. Someday I will be a champion and I can’t wait to see my grandfather in the ring holding the belt over his head, because nobody deserves that more than him.”
 
Burchfield has been a boxing promoter for nearly 30 vuotta, and he agrees that Powell will be a champion someday. “He’s definitely is on a mission to be a champion,” Burchfield added, and he has everything needed to make that happen. This kid has a really good story. He can be a champion and continue helping at-risk kids have better lives. What’s better than that?”
 
Powell, who also gave-away toys to children in need last Christmas at Big Six Boxing Academy, is on the boxing journey of his career that he believes will climax someday with him being crowned world champion.  
 
Lyhyesti, Lamont Powell is the total package, sisään ja ulos rengas. And lucky to be alive!

Born to box Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini

COLORADO SPRINGS, Kierros. (Huhtikuu 27, 2020) — As the son of a prizefighter, Kansainvälinen nyrkkeilyn kunniataulun nyrkkeilijä (“Class of 2015”) Säde “Boom Boom” Mancini was born to box, and the Youngstown, Ohio fighter climbed to the top of the sport’s mountain, capturing the World Boxing Association (WBA) lightweight title in 1982.

Mancini’s father, myöhässä Lenny “Boom Boom” Mancini, boxed professionally from 1937 kohteeseen 1947, kokoaminen 46-12-3 (16 KOs) pro-ennätys. Lenny was the No. 1 ranked lightweight in the world in 1941 and considered a future world champion. Kuitenkin, his dream was sadly shattered when he was wounded during World War II. He returned to boxing after being discharged, but his physical issues due to the wound prevented him from fulfilling his once vast potential.

His son, Säde, took the mantle and ran with it to fame, glory and notoriety as a world champion. He started boxing young and had his first fight when he was 15 at the Junior Olympics in Cleveland. Ray had thought that he would have to wait until he turned 16, because that was the minimum age to compete in the Golden Gloves.

“When I heard that I could enter (the Junior Olympics),” Mancini remembered, “I pressured my father to let me go (to Cleveland). A very close family friend was training some guys in the next town over from us and he was taking some fighters to the Junior Olympics. He said he’d take me there. I won by first fight by first-round knockout and I wound up winning the regional title. I went on to the Mid-West Regional in Detroit and fought a local kid, Sammy Fuentes, to go to the Nationals. He beat me by decision, but I gained my first real lesson about boxing and life: experience is everything. It was my sixth amateur fight and I was told that Fuentes had more than 200. It did not deter me, itse asiassa, it made me hungrier to succeed.”

Succeed he did, despite his aggressive style that best suited the professional ranks much more than amateurs. He won 43 of 50 amateur matches, capturing top honors in the 1977 Youngstown Golden Gloves and Northeastern Ohio Golden Gloves. He also won the Northeast Ohio AAU Championship and reached the quarterfinals of the 1978 National AAU Tournament.

“I lost a close decision in the semifinals of the 1978 National Golden Gloves to two-time U.S. Jumalainen Davey Armstrong,” Mancini said. “I lost a decision to Anthony Fletcher in the quarterfinals of the 1978 National AAU Championships and once again in the championship final of the Ohio State Fair. In my last amateur fight, I lost a bad decision to defending National Champion Melvin Paul klo 1979 Kansallinen Golden Käsineet Tournament. (Sen jälkeen) I knew I wasn’t going to have another amateur fight and was going to turn pro.

“I had more of a pro style when I fought in the amateurs. Three rounds didn’t benefit me. I never had a four-round fight (pro). I started with six-rounders because, for my style, a three-round amateur or a four-round pro fight were pretty much the same for me. Six-rounders were more beneficial to me and that was proven right away.

“I knew I wouldn’t win any of the major amateur championships because of my style. Matkan varrella, vaikka, I beat some pretty good amateurs: Darryl Chambers,Memo Arreola, Tim Christianson ja Mark Chieverini. My amateur career just made me even more hungry to win a World title as a pro.”



His seek and destroy style made him an instant favorite as a professional. “I had to be aggressive, as a fighter or on the playing field when I played other sports, because of my natural instincts,” Mancini explained. “I couldn’t sit back and wait for things to happen; I had to try and make things happen. I follow that thinking in my business life as well, but much like the fight game, you have to known when to attack and when to sit back and counter.”

Mancini, who some called a little Rocky Marciano because of the way he fought, turned pro October 18, 1979 in Struthers, Ohio, pysähtymättä Phil Bowen Avauskierroksen. Ray fought 15 times in his first year as a pro and extended his winning streak to 19, before he challenged World Boxing Council (WBC) lightweight World champion Alexis Arguello (67-5), who won by way of a 14-round technical knockout, in a fight that was dead even after 10 kierrosta. After the match, then future Hall of Famer Arguello was quoted as saying: “I think my heart is special, but his (Mancini) is bigger than I have. Someday he will be champion.”

Only seven months and three fights later, Mancini captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) lightweight World title way of a sensational first-round knockout of defending champion Arturo Frias (24-1). Ray dedicated that fight to his father, who was unable to become world champion, due to the wounds he suffered in World War II.

Mancini finished his pro career with a 29-5 (23 KOs), which included victories against world champions Bobby Chacon (523-5-1), Ernesto Espana (35-4), Frias and Jose Luis Ramirez (71-3), and all five of his losses were to world champions – Arguello, Hector Camacho, Greg Haughen ja Livingstone Bramble (kahdesti).

“Ray ‘Boom Boom’ Mancini demonstrated the heart of a champion throughout his career,” sanoi Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Director. “Even though his in-ring success is primarily discussed at the professional level, the hunger to learn and grow as an amateur is something that inspires today’s USA Boxing champions. He is another example of a USA Boxing alumnus who experienced tremendous success resulting from experiences and lessons from his amateur days.”

Mancini is proud of his roots in Youngstown, which also produced world pro boxing champions such as Harry Arroyo, Jeff Lampkin, Greg Richardson ja Kelly Pavlik.

“Growing up in Youngstown helped me tremendously as a fighter,” Mancini talked about his hometown. “We all knew what a tough town it was and is and we knew the stories of all the fighters, amateur and pro, who had left a mark before us. Growing up there, football and boxing were the two sports everybody talked about. If you left a mark in either one, people still talked about you long after you’re playing, or fight days were over. Joten, to succeed in a town like Youngstown, was a tremendous accomplishment in itself.”

The ultra-popular Mancini is one of the few boxers to have had a movie (“Heart of a Champion: The Ray Mancini Story)”), song (“Boom Boom Mancini” by Warren Zevon) and book (“The Good Son: The Life of Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini by Mark Kriegel) about him.

Tänään, the 59-year-old Mancini still resides in Youngstown, and he remains involved in boxing as a color commentator for PBC on Fox. He’s also been a member of the Ohio Boxing Commission for the last three years. “I’m involved (nyrkkeily) as close as I want to be and can still be a fan,” hän myönsi. “What I miss most about the fight game is challenging myself mentally and emotionally, and to be able to “get up” and challenge myself physically on a daily basis. To stand in front of another man before the fight, right in the center of the ring, and say to myself, ‘Either you’re getting carried out of here tonight or I am, but one of us is getting carried out of here tonight,’ was my mentality. I miss that challenge!”

Looking back at his boxing career, Mancini maintains that he wouldn’t change a thing. “I can’t say I would do anything different, in retrospect, because I won the World title, successfully defended it four times, made good money and retired healthy,” Mancini concluded. “People still remember and talk about my fights and I made it into the International Boxing Hall of Fame, the ultimate shrine for fighters. Joten, why would I want to have done anything differently?”
