“Ring 8 is looking forward to having Stan Hoffman and Regelio Tuur as our featured speakers this month,” Ring 8 president Jack Hirsch öeldud. “Stan has managed or advised many world champions over his career, Tuur included.

It will be nice to hear him relive that and other fights of his stellar career.”
