Utorak, Studeni. 21 u O'Neill's Restaurant
U Maspethu, NY
NEW YORK (Studeni 15, 2017)) – Eve Kuće slavnih Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield and former world welterweight champion Luis Collazo will be special guest speakers at Ring 8’s next monthly meeting,Utorak noć, Studeni 21, u O'Neill's Restaurant (64-21 53rd Voziti) u Maspethu, Njujork,
Because a large crowd is expected, only Ring 8 members will be allowed to attend this meeting, but membership may be obtained at the door for those interested in joining Ring 8.
“Evander Holyfield is one of the few living legends in our sport,” Prsten 8 predsjednik Jack Hirsch rekla. “Tako, you can imagine how thrilled we are to have him as a guest speaker. We had planned to present Holyfield with the Ring 8 Legends Award at our holiday banquet, but a lucrative business opportunity will prohibit him from being there that afternoon. Umjesto, we will present him with that award at O’Neil’s. It says a lot about Evander that he adjusted his schedule to remain in New York to attend our meeting.
“Luis Collazo is a terrific fighter in his own right, having been a former world champion. His career seems to be on an upswing once again and we are anxious to hear about his future plans.”
Holyfield has retired as a boxer with an outstanding 44-10-2 (29 Kos), but this past year he has operated a New York City-based promotional company, Real Deal Boxing. A U.S. Olimpski, Holyfield is the only unified world cruiserweight champion, as well as a four-time heavyweight champion of the world.
He had a 16-7-2 record in world title fights and won 19 od 30 fights with two draws against past or present world champions, defeating a Who’s Who list of all-time greats such as Dwight Muhammad Qawi, George Foreman, Larry Holmes, Riddick Bowe a Mike Tyson (dvaput), među više uglednika.
Born in Brooklyn and now a resident of Queens, Collazo (37-7. 20 Kos) captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) welterweight world title on April 2, 2005, winning a 12-round split decision over hometown favorite and defending champion Jose Antonio Rivera u Worcester, Massachusetts.
The 26-year-old Collazo, who has also defeated world champions Miguel Angel Gonzalez a Victor Ortiz, remains a world title contender having upset 21-1 Sammy Vasquez in his last action by way of a sixth-round knockout last February.

NEW YORK (Rujan 11, 2017) – Indukcija Državne bokserske dvorane slavnih Bruce Silverglade, posebni direktor programa boksa Alex Montaldo i povjesničar boksa Frederick Roman bit će Prsten 8 gostujući govornici na sljedećem mjesečnom sastanku u utorak noć, Rujan 19 (7 poslije podne. I početak), u O'Neill's Restaurant (64-21 53rd Voziti) u Maspethu, Njujork.
“Bruce Silverglade treba dati punu zaslugu za pretvaranje Gleason-a u, vjerovatno, najbolju boksačku teretanu u svijetu,” Prsten 8 predsjednik Jack Hirsch rekla. “Sa svim sjajnim borcima koji su tamo trenirali tijekom godina, vjerojatno će imati neke fascinantne priče koje će podijeliti s nama. Alex Montaldo vodi Gledateljev program boksa za ljude oboljele od Parkinsonove bolesti. Radujemo se što će nam objasniti kako to funkcionira.
Frederick Romano napisao je novu knjigu s detaljima o povijesti boksa na radiju, vraćajući nas u zlatno doba prije nego što je televizija nastala. Sa sobom će donijeti neke knjige za kupnju po sniženoj cijeni za članove Ring8. Naša tri govornika trebali bi ovo učiniti vrlo ugodnom noći za članstvo.”
Silverglade je od tada posjedovao svjetski poznatu Gleason's Gym 1983. Ikonična bokserska teretana datira još iz vremena 80 godina, kada je Gleasonova teretana izvorno osnovana u Bronxu, prije nego što se preselio na Manhattan iz 1974 za 1984, zatim u Brooklyn u 1985, i konačno na današnje mjesto u Brooklynu prije godinu dana u 130 Vodena ulica.
Mnogi od boksačkih velikana trenirali su u Gleason-u uključujući Jake Lamotta, Roberto Duran, Mike Tyson pa čak Muhammad Ali, ko kao Cassius Clay trenirao tamo za svoju prvu borbu sa Sonny Liston u 1964. Mnogi glumci, uključujući Robert DeNiro aWesley Snipes, i tamo su trenirali za uloge u filmovima.
Montaldo je razvio i upravlja posebnim programom u Gleason's Gym – stoPD (Podržite trening za prevladavanje Parkinsonove bolesti) dizajniran za pomoć osobama oboljelim od Parkinsonove bolesti.
Romano je više nego radno iskustvo u boksu 35 godina kao istraživački savjetnik za HBO, kao i producent i voditelj emisije kabelske televizije o boksu, i on je certificirani sudac amaterskog boksa u New Yorku. Frederick će govoriti o boksačkim knjigama – napisao je nekoliko – i filmove.
