Peltz boksè fete 46th anivèsè Anniversary Ane


Nan konmansman,…
Pandan ke prepare pou Vandredi a Pòtoriken boksè klasik nan la 2300 Arena nan Philadelphia, pwomotè J Russell Peltz, Entènasyonal boksè Hall nan rnome, klas nan 2004, sonje kòmansman li nan boksè 46 ane de sa.

Jodi a mwen selebre-oswa petèt obsève-anivèsè a 46th nan premye batay mwen kòm yon pwomotè boksè. Mwen te kapab te mete tout espwa kat yon lòt ane yo ekri istwa sa a, men sa sanble tankou yon bon bout tan, depi koulye ak yon parye menm ankò yo rive jwenn ki etap enpòtan.

Mwen te wè sèlman kèk minit nan kat premye boksè mwen. Li te Sept. 30, 1969, a Blue Horizon a-pa ankò lejand-epi mwen te okipe nan biwo nan bwat ak manman, vann tikè nan dènye a nan la 1,606 moun nou prese nan la Jou lannwit sa a yo gade middleweight Bennie briscoe detwi Tito Marshall nan rematch yo. Nou aktyèlman vire moun lwen pase tout nwit lan e ke sa a yon bagay mwen pa ta janm fè ankò. Ki sa mwen te panse?

Te gen yon miscommunication ak sendika a ki apwovizyone vandè yo tikè Se konsa, lè yo echwe pou pou montre, Mwen te anplwaye manman-gratis, nan kou-ak li te ede nan vann tikè yo.

Mwen te 22 ane fin vye granmoun, 15 mwa apre yo fin diplome nan tanp Inivèsite ak mwens pase 30 jou yo retire nan travay plen tan sou anplwaye nan espò nan Bilten an Aswè. Mwen te te sitèlman anvi nan boksè bat nan Bilten an, men mwen te resevwa enpasyan lè Jack Fried, ekriven an boksè, te resevwa yon ekstansyon sou pou pran retrèt obligatwa l 'nan laj 65 ak mwen pa t 'sou yo pann alantou tann pou l' pran retrèt ou oswa, kòm papa ta ka di, choute bokit la.

Se konsa, mwen te fè sa chak grad kolèj 22-zan ki moun ki te leve soti vivan sou prestijye nan Main Line ta fè-I te vin tounen yon pwomotè boksè.

Mwen te sove sou $5,000 nan kolèj depi m 'te travay plen tan sou sa yo rele an Woma Shift nan Bilten an, kòmanse ete a apre jinyò ane mwen nan tanp. Mwen te travay soti nan minwi 8 menm, istwa koreksyon, ekri tit ak tit ak ap fè re-ekri. Lè sa a, mwen ta kondwi soti nan 30 & Market Street nan North Broad Street pou ane wo grade mwen nan tanp, ale nan klas soti nan 9 menm 1 pm, Lè sa a, kondwi lakay yo nan BALA CYNWYD pou yo ale nan dòmi.

Se te yon ane pòs-Olympic nan Filadèlfi e te gen talan sou chak kwen lari yo. Mwen sonje fen sezon ete a nan 1969, kondwi moute Columbia Avenue-kounye a Cecil B. Moore-yo ak vire dwa apre 22d Ri kote Columbia vin nan Ridge. De bilding soti nan kwen an kanpe justesse yo te rele Café nan Roach nan. Sou tèt sa Café Roach nan, moute yon vòl nan eskalye apik, te Champs Gym, kouri pa Quenzell McCall, ki te fè fè yo zo l 'fòmasyon Percy Bassett ak Leotis Martin ak Kitten Hayward ak briscoe ak anpil lòt avyon de gè tèt Filadèlfi.

Mwen te rankontre Sam Salomon, yon zanmitay moun wonn-fè fas ki posede yon londwomat piblik nan West Philadelphia, epi li entwodwi m 'nan avyon de gè nouvo l' yo, yon stud 17-zan ki moun ki te ap chache vire pro. Non l 'te Eugene Hart. Sam surnommé l ' Cyclone.

Yon ane pi bonè, Yon jimnastik nan sousòl la nan Legliz la Anonsyasyon a 12yèm & Norris, jis nan lakou lekòl la nan tanp, Mwen te fè antrevi yon lòt jèn boxer amatè pou yon istwa mwen te ekri pou Bilten an. Non l 'te Bobby Watts. Yo rele l ' Boogaloo.

Gen pa t 'janm yon pro kat batay nan Filadèlfi depi Me ak fanatik lokal yo te pare pou kèk aksyon.

Mwen te reve pou gen estati zidòl anfans mwen, Hall-of-Famer Harold Johnson, nan evènman an prensipal men mwen pa te kapab gen mwayen nan $2,000 li te vle. Mwen te vin zanmitay ak breve Duffy, li te gen ekri kèk istwa sou amatè boksè pandan y ap Mwen te nan Bilten an. Duffy kontwole amater yo nan zòn nan Tri-eta a ak li te gen men l 'nan avantaj yo kòm byen. Li te patisipe nan Leotis Martin ak Sammy Goss ak Bennie briscoe ak pou yon garanti nan $1,000 kont yon pousantaj nan resi yo pòtay mwen te resevwa briscoe al goumen yon rematch ak Marshall, ki te bat Bennie kat ane pi bonè.

Duffy tou te gen yon pwa loud yo te rele Jerry Jij, soti nan seksyon an Kensington nan Filadèlfi, ak mwen te ajoute l 'nan kat la nan pro premye l'. Sou afich an mwen idantifye Jij kòm Kensington pwa loud chanpyon nan. Vrèman!

George Hill, ki moun ki te fòmasyon an Champs Gym, te dakò ak fè pwòp tèt li pro premye kont Jij.

Jimmy Toppi, Jr, posede Blue Horizon nan. Li te ankouraje batay nan divès avni Filadèlfi nan ane 1940 yo ak ane 1950 ak kòm pli vit ke li tande pale sou evènman prensipal mwen an, sa li te prevwa yon likidasyon. Toppi ta fèmen biwo li chak jou nan 2 pm, Se konsa, mwen ta kondwi sou nan Blue Horizon a soti nan apatman mwen an nan seksyon an Germantown nan lavil la, pake soti deyò, li rete tann yo wè si genyen kliyan ta montre jiska achte tikè. Chak fwa mwen te wè yon moun sonnen sonèt la nan Blue Horizon nan, Mwen ta jwenn soti nan machin mwen an, rele sou nan yo e yo vann yo tikè soti nan kòf mwen.

Kat la te sanble, byenke Watts’ opozan orijinal, Nò Filadèlfi frè parèy Lloyd Move nouvèl Nelson, anile soti yon koup la semèn anvan montre a epi li pa t 'jouk fèmen nan Sept. 30 ke mwen te jwenn Ron Nesby, ki moun ki te fòmasyon nan gym Gil Clancy a nan New York.

Papa te nan plonbri a, chofaj ak èkondisyone biznis ak li te pran 100 tikè rinsid e li te bay yo soti vin jwenn asosye biznis li. Li peye m 'pou tout nan yo-yo te $5 derechanj. Mwen devine li te enkyete mwen pa ta fè l 'nan boksè. Tonton mwen Bob rive batay la epi li te vin malad apre yo fin manje yon sosis Blue Horizon.

Mwen te nan jimnaz yo chak swa, Champs ak PAL an 23rd nan North Filadèlfi, Passyunk ak Gym nan Juniper nan Sid Filadèlfi. Te gen lòt moun men moun yo te nan Fab Kat.

Malcolm “Flash” Gordon, yon long-chveu New York kame boksè ki te te achte yon machin roneote ak Bar mitsva lajan l 'pi bonè ane, te dakò nan vann pwogram kounye a-lejand li nan batay la pou 25 santim chak.

Tom Cushman, ekriven an boksè pou la Daily News, te yon gwo jwè. Mwen te kontre Cushman nan Oklahoma City yon kèk ane pi bonè. Li te sispann gen–sou wout li soti nan Denver East yo kòmanse nouvo travay li nan nan Daily News-yo kouvri ekip baskètbòl tanp lan nan yon tounwa Nwèl ak Mwen te la kòm yon Korespondan pou Bilten an.

Cushman te konnen ke boksè ekriven soti nan lòt jounal nan vil pran lajan anba tab la soti nan pwomotè yo ekri istwa pre-batay epi li te di m 'si li janm kenbe m' fè sa mwen te kapab bo orevwa amitye nou an. Pa yon chans!

Anketeur a gran tit jou a anvan kat mwen: Èske Peltz pare jwenn skinned?

Nou vann soti. Nan moman sa a, nan 1,606 fanatik nan prezans nan lekòl reprezante foul moun yo pi gwo nan istwa Blue Horizon nan. Pòtay lavil la te $6,010 ak tikè pwi a $3 ak $5. Pousantaj briscoe a rive $1,314.58 ak Marshall te mache soti ak $788.75.

Middleweight Oscar COOR bat Clarence Finney nan yon tout-lokal kat-Rounder yo louvri kat la-sou tan, natirèlman, nan 8 pm-ak Cyclone Hart kònen lwen South Filadèlfi a Sheldon Moore, ki pa t 'reponn klòch la pou wonn de. Jerry Jij te travay di ak sispann George Hill nan wonn nan katriyèm ak Boogaloo Watts soti-bwat Ron Nesby nan yon 6. Nan evènman an prensipal, Briscoe te gen yon eksplozyon. Li kloure Marshall anba a senti a byen bonè ak ki lè Tito pote plent ba ref la, Bennie te ale anwo kay epi li te tout lòt peyi sou nan 60 segonn. Marshall pa janm bwat ankò.

Kroniker Sandy Grady te gen soti nan Bilten an. Istwa li jou kap vini an–Fou rèv Vini Vrè–te di sou prediksyon m 'ki nan kolèj ke yon jou zanmi m' ta dwe vini nan kat batay mwen. Li te tou te ekri ke mwen (premye) madanm ak mwen te k ap viv nan yon apatman nan Germantown ak bagay sa yo sèlman nan li te yon matla, yon seri televizyon ak yon chat yo te rele Ophelia. Ak lajan an nou te fè, jou swa sa ($1,438.83), Grady te ekri ke petèt kounye a nou ta achte kèk mèb.

Yon kèk mwa pi bonè, te madanm mwen mande m 'sa ki te fè m' panse mwen te kapab gen siksè nan sa a biznis. Mwen te di li ke li ta pran m 'sou sis mwa ka kònen ekonomi m' men mwen ta gen yon gwo Scrapbook yon sèl jou yo montre timoun nou sou tan an papa yo te yon pwomotè boksè.
