The late Sen. McCain boxed at the U.S. Naval Academy, where the 5’ 7” lightweight competed three years as a fearless boxer who reportedly always came forward, never reversing gears. In his final year, he managed the battalion boxing team to a brigade championship.

“Our family believes our father would accept this award graciously as a very high honor,” daughterMegan McCain said on behalf of the McCain family. “The courage, character and action needed to step into the ring is something he felt very strongly about.

“He learned many life lessons through boxing, including the value of fitness, дисциплина, individual performance training and operating as part of a team. Boxers run up against opposition they have no idea how to attack or defend against, yet they figure it out and learn about themselves, as well as develop endurance during the process.”

“Senator McCain was a true ally to the sport, having personally understood the courage and risk-taking required from those who enter the ring,", Рекао јеЦhris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Executive Director. Throughout his career in politics, USA Boxing communicated with his office numerous times as part of a collaborative effort to safeguard the future of Olympic style, Аматерски бокс, and Senator McCain never hesitated to offer to do more for our athletes. For this and many other reasons, the USA Boxing Alumni Association looks forward to honoring his legacy this weekend.”

Трећа класа ХОФ Асоцијације бивших боксерских асоцијација такође укључује још две златне олимпијске медаље, “Big” George Foremanи “Smokin’” Joe Frazier, as well as legendary coachesАл Мичел иRay Rodgers

Његово. Јохн МцЦаин will be posthumously presented a special Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work to protect boxers and elevate the sport.

“I’m very happy to be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Breland said. “It really means a lot, especially going in this year with Foreman and Frazier. I guess it proves I’ve done a lot in boxing. I’m happy to be going in. I had a lot of fun in USA Boxing. To be going into the same Hall of Fame withЕвандер (Холифиелд) (МухамедАре, Foreman, Frazier…champs like that, it’s something for me to be with them.”

Breland, иронично, first got into boxing at the age of eight, due to him being brought to his first boxing match, Frazier-Ali I, у Мадисон Скуаре Гардену. „Били смо горе на горњим седиштима,”Бреланд, рођен и одрастао у Бреланду, сећао се као да је био јуче. "Публика, атмосфера ... све чега сам се могао сјетити била је, вау!  Све док нисам остарио нисам схватио да тамо има толико звезда које гледају Алију и Фрејзера, јер су сви били на прстену.

„Следећег дана сам отишао у теретану. Била сам стварно мршава, мали, али вратио сам се сутрадан. Уживао сам у вежбању и заволео бокс. Желео сам да боксам на великим турнирима. Ово сам желео да урадим, али бокс сам скривао од родитеља. Знали су да имам играо сам фудбал, али то им је било у реду, јер за разлику од бокса, имали смо кацигу. Победио сам на јуниорским олимпијским играма и то је било у новинама. Видео сам то и помислио да ће ме мајка убити. Мајка ме је питала зашто јој нисам рекао, па сам је позвао да ме гледа како се борим у Златним рукавицама. Била је у једном од првих редова, али после када сам је питао шта мисли кад сам нокаутирао противника, рекла је да то није видела јер је затворила очи. "

Бреланд је постао петоструки шампион њујоршких Златних рукавица са 21-0 запис, укључујући 19 нокаута, 14 долазе у уводној рунди. У 1982, Бреланд је на престижном светском првенству у Минхену освојио златну медаљу, Немачка, након чега је добио име бр. 1 велтер категорија света АИБА. Такође је изабран за боксера године (1982) од УСААБФ.

У 1984 Олимпијске игре, одржаном у Лос Анђелесу, Breland fought his way to a gold medal,

along with eight of his American teammatesPaul GonzalezSteve McCroryМелдрицк ТејлорПернелл ВхитакерJerry Page,Frank TateHenry Tillman иTyrell Biggs.

Breland, who completed his amateur career with an amazing 110-1 (73 КОс) запис, appeared to be cooler than the other side of the pillow on a hot, steamy night. No real celebrations after he won gold, to the contrary, Mark was emotionless, the same as he still is today as a trainer of champions.

“I’ve always been really laid back,” he explained. “I just remember raising my hands. At an Olympic press conference, I was asked if I was happy, and I just said I was glad it was over. I guess I didn’t seem excited. I was happy but calm. It’s the same way now (as a trainer); то сам само ја. Срећан сам због победе и срећан што радим то што радим. “

„Маркова доминација над конкуренцијом током његове боксерске каријере у САД цементира га као легенду,”Прокоментарисао јеЦhris Cugliari, Извршни директор Удружења бивших боксерских савезника САД. „Његова интелигенција у прстену, посвећеност свом занату, и способност да се бори било којим темпом против било ког стила чини га изванредним примером за данашњу групу аматерских шампиона. Прошло је много времена, али Удружење бивших ученика радује се што ће размислити о његовим достигнућима и одати почаст Марку у Луизијани “.

Бреланд је имао свој очекивани професионални деби у новембру 15, 1984, у чувеном Мадисон Скуаре Гардену, победивши Двајта Вилијамса једногласном одлуком у шест кругова. Током своје славне професионалне каријере (1984-1997), Breland compiled a sterling 35-3-1 (35 КОс) record and he was a two-time World welterweight champion.

The 56-year-old Breland, who once trained the late, велики 1992 US OlympianVernon Forrest, currently trains another great USA Boxing alumni and 2008 освајач бронзане олимпијске медаље, Деонтаи Вилдер, the reigning World Boxing Council heavyweight champion.

“Once I started boxing in the amateurs,” Breland concluded, “I started progressing. I learned a lot from other amateurs like different styles. Boxers from New York/New Jersey had different styles than boxers from Georgia/Florida, and fighting Cubans was completely different. I was beating up a Cuban fighter, but every time I hit him, somehow, they took away a point from me. I knew right away that I had to knock him out to win, and they did end up stopping the fight.”

ЦОЛОРАДО СПРИНГС, Круг. (Новембар 25, 2019) – Arkansas boxing icon Ray Rodgershas successfully dealt with more cuts than most surgeons, all the way into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame, in which he’ll be inducted on Friday night, Децембар 13, током посебне класе 2019 церемонија, at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Казино у Лаке Цхарлесу, Луизијана.

There isn’t much in boxing, if anything, that Rodgers hasn’t done: боксер, official, тренер, administrator and, наравно, рез човек. “I’m a boxing guy,” Rodgers said in his Southern twang. “I’ve been around the block, several times. But I don’t say I’m a cut man, I’m a laceration management specialist.

Rodgers first got into boxing when he was in the fifth grade, back in Oklahoma, where he was born. A memo was sent around that there would be a tryout for boxing held the next day at the local high school gym. His parents gave their permission to let him tryout, the first chapter of his incredible boxing career.

From the first moment,” the charming boxing character remembered, “Ја сам навукао. I still have the letter I received in boxing. That was in 1947 and I’m still in boxing. I’m very proud of that.

Rodgers has worked 39 world championship fights in professional boxing, as a cut man (he only trains amateur boxers) for the likes of world champions Jermaine Taylor, Wayne McCollough и Томми Моррисон.

It’s been beyond belief for a regular old boxing guy like me,” Rodgers said about his life in boxing. “I’ve traveled all over the world, many times, as a cut man.

Био је први национални званичник и Златних и Сребрних рукавица. Више, већ је примљен у три Куће славних: Сребрне рукавице, Златне рукавице и Аркансас Спортс ХОФ.

“Раиова жртва безброј младих као тренер, ментор, рез човек, и лидер у аматерској боксерској заједници је инспиративан,” цомментед Цхрис Цуглиари, Извршни директор Удружења бивших боксерских савезника САД. “Његов радни стаж и знање које је пренео другим генерацијама чине га Двором славе, и радујемо се што ћемо га почастити у децембру.”

Родгерс није успорио, упркос томе што је недавно прославио свој 83рд рођендан. И даље поседује и управља боксерским клубом Раи Родгерс у Вест Литтле Роцку, Арканзас, поред тога што је служио као директор Аркансас Златних рукавица и турнира Мид-Соутх, која укључује Луизијану, Мисисипи, Западни Тенеси и Арканзас. And he’s also the vice-president of the National Golden Gloves and chairman of the National Silver Gloves.

At my age, I’m happy to have any birthday,” Rodgers joked. “I’m hoping to live another 10-12 године, Lord willing. It’s all in the Lord’s hands; controlling the flow of blood, мада, is in my hands.

West Point Boxing Fall Classic Winchester Senior Cadet Luca LoConte Botis to be showcased in final local boxing match

Нов. 10 на Ентони је у Малден, Маса.

БОСТОН, Маса. (Октобар 28, 2019) – United States Military Academy Senior Cadet Luca LoConte Botis, who was born and raised in Winchester (Маса.,) is looking forward to his final local boxing competition on Sunday, Новембар 10.

Botis, captain of the West Point boxing team, will be in action in front of many friends and family members Nov. 10 at the National Collegiate Boxing Association’s (NCBA) “West Point Fall Classic,” to be held at Anthony’s in nearby Malden, Масачусетс.

Members of the West Point boxing team will compete against amateur boxers from USA Boxing New England, University of Connecticut, Trinity College, Hartford College, and the University of Massachusetts.
Botis is a 2015 graduate of Winchester High School, where he captained the school’s cross country, swimming and outdoor track teams.

It always feels nice to comeback home and fight in front of my home crowd,” Botis said. “Since this is the last local fight for me, I can definitely say there is an early sense of nostalgia.

Botis will graduate from the United States Military Academy on May 23, 2020, after which he will be commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Војска. Although he hopes to serve in the Infantry in either Colorado or Kentucky, Botis will not know his first assignment until Nov. 13, nor where he will be assigned until February.

Boxing has been an enjoyable experience for Botis for numerous reasons. “Boxing has helped me become a more humble, respectful person,” he explained. “In the boxing ring there must be mutual respect between the two opponents; no taunting, teasing, or any form of disrespect. Boxers must also learn to not feel emotional toward their opponents. I learned these lessons by fighting in or watching fights where instances as such occurred.

I will not be boxing competitive in the army, but I will continue to train, because it is the best form of exercise I have ever experienced. Regarding my post-Army life, I will most likely volunteer at local gyms to train the younger generations to box.

Unsure how long he will serve in the U.S. Војска, at least at this stage, Botis plans to serve more than his required five years, but less than 10 године. He speaks an incredible seven languages: Енглески, Italian, Sicilian and Romanian he learned at home, adding Portuguese, Spanish and a little Hebrew at West Point.

Botis has somewhat followed the path set by his great uncle, Louis LoConte, who was a varsity athlete excelling in hockey. He graduated in 1948 with honors from West Point, where he was trained to fly B-52 bombers. The now 93 година стар, who lives in Louisiana, served in the military until 1956. Луцас’ велики, great grandfather, Louis LoConte, Ср., immigrated to the U.S. from Sicily, working as mason on the West Point military base. He used to speak to his son, лоу, about how much he admired young Cadets, understanding that they were special.

West Point has taught me that life is not about my own personal gains but, уместо тога, about service to others,” Botis concluded. “It doesn’t matter what kind of service, military of civil, but what does matter is that I will help people everywhere I go. I value my relationships at West Point so much that I would not have made it this far if I didn’t have them.

USA BOXING HEAVYWEIGHT ADRIAN TILLMAN IN U.S. ARMY

ЦОЛОРАДО СПРИНГС, Круг. (Септембар 3, 2019) – No. 2 rated American heavyweight Адриан Тиллман, who is also ranked No. 5 as a light heavyweight, is not only representing his country as a member of USA Boxing’s 2019 Men’s Elite team, he’s also serving in the U.S. Army at the same time.

Tillman, 24, is able to do both, because he’s an active soldier enrolled in the World Class Athlete Program (ВЦАП), у коме квалификовани спортисти имају прилику да редовно тренирају за Олимпијске игре.

“As of right now,” Tillman said, “my focus is on the Olympics. I love the military and I love boxing. So, I’ll just see where life takes me. But, as of now, 2020 Tokyo, Јапан, is the one thing on my mind.

“Training (in Colorado Springs) with the Elite team has definitely elevated my game all around. The coaches and trainers are always teaching me. It’s a non-stop learning environment with the team.”

Born in Riverside, Калифорнија, Tillman started boxing in 2008, because he wanted to lose weight and learn how to defend himself and his siblings as he was about to enter high school.

The heavyweight with a stiff jab is a three-time National PAL champion (2018, 2017 и 2015), in addition to capturing a gold medal at the 2017 Eastern Elite Qualifier. His greatest accomplishment, међутим, may be a little surprising, because it isn’t about winning medals, trophies and belts.

“My greatest accomplishment was being able to qualifying two weight classes (lightweight and heavyweight) for the Olympic Trials.”

Tillman has traveled throughout South America and Europe. He is with his Team USA teammates training in England before going straight to Yekaterinburg, Русија, to compete in the 2019 Elite Men’s World Championships, Септембар 7-21.

“Gaining a medal at the World Championships is important to me because,” he noted, “not only am I representing my country, I’m also representing the Army and my family.”

When he’s in the ring, Tillman adjusts to his opponent, brawling or boxing equally, whatever it takes to win.

Adrian Tillman is a true patriot who also happens to wear boxing gloves. Whether he qualifies as a heavyweight or light heavyweight, all that matters to him is boxing for Team USA at the 2020 Олимпијске игре.
