COLORADO SPRINGS, Lap. (Feabhra 11, 2020) - Tríocha dhá bhliain tar éis a gabhadh sé bonn óir Oilimpeach, "Merciless" Ray Mercer fondly cuimhin a thaithí Oilimpeacha mar a bhí sé an mhí seo caite. Mercer, a bhfuil an curadh trom ach Mheiriceá a t-amach go léir a opponents Oilimpeacha, chuaigh ar aghaidh le bheith curadh domhanda trom-mheáchain mar gairmiúil le haghaidh ár "trom-mheáchain dúbailte."

Do Mercer, thosaigh sé ar fad sa Ghearmáin, i gcás ina U.S. Cuireadh Arm Aonad bunaithe. Ar fáil deis a sheachaint cleachtadh réimse 30-lá, Ghlac Mercer tairiscint chun fónamh mar chomhpháirtí sparring don phost curadh dornálaíochta trom-mheáchain. In ainneoin riamh ag chur ar péire de lámhainní roimh, Bhí Mercer foghlaimeoir tapaidh a bhí go nádúrtha láidir, agus d'fhorbair sé go tapa isteach sa 1985 U.S. Airm agus Idirsheirbhíse curadh trom.

An Clár Domhanda Athlete Rang (WCAP), ina mbeadh an deis chun oiliúint lánaimseartha do na Cluichí Oilimpeacha lúthchleasaithe cháilithe, Ní raibh staid airgeadais ann ar ais ansin, ná rialacha an Oilimpeacha qualifier an lá atá inniu ann. Mercer defeated sa todhchaí domhain curadh tromTommy Morrison sa bhabhta oscailte an 1988 Trialacha Oilimpeacha agus sa todhchaí domhanda titlist trom eile, Michael Bentt (5-0) sa chluiche ceannais chraobh. ag an 1988 USA Oilimpeacha Box-dícheangail ag famed Caesars Pala

"Nuair a bhí mé in Arm, Bhí mé a bhuachan sa tseirbhís, rudaí a choimeád ar bun, agus téigh go dtí an chéad chéim eile,"Mercer cuimhne. "Bhí mé a buille ar roinnt trodaithe maith ar mo bhealach go dtí na Cluichí Oilimpeacha, agus bhí mé i gcruth is fearr de mo shaol. Bhí níos mó smachta sna amateurs ná na céimeanna gairmiúla. An bhliain dheireanach roimh na Cluichí Oilimpeacha, D'fhág mé mo aonad bhaile, thaistil go leor dul i ngleic, agus d'fhan i dteach mo oiliúnóra ionad ina gcónaí i nDún.

"Bhí a fhios agam go raibh mé a knockout an Cóiré Theas sa chluiche ceannais,"Mercer admhaigh. "Bhí mé díreach a dhéanamh cad a d'fhéadfadh liom a bheith ar an bhuaigh bonn óir Oilimpeach. Ní dóigh liom go úsáid mé jab.

"Winning an bonn óir Oilimpeach thoradh roinnt athruithe móra-am dom. Bhí mé le rá, ainm tí, agus lig sé dom a airgead a dhéanamh mar gairmiúil. An rud is fearr a tharla riamh dom go raibh a bhuaigh an bonn óir Oilimpeach, fiú níos mó ná mar a bhuaigh an teideal domhan mar pro. Ní dhéanfaidh aon ní i gcomparáid le bheith ina ór bhuaigh bonn Oilimpeach. i gcrích mé mo bhrionglóid. Ní raibh mé dreamed de pro ag dul, go dtí tar éis a bhuaigh mé an bonn óir.

"Bhí sé iontach tábhachtach a bhuachan go bonn óir. throid mé le mo chroí; ní raibh airgead i gceist, cheiliúradh chomh dian sin an oíche sin (tar éis a bhuaigh an bonn óir) gur chaill mé mo bonn ar feadh cúpla uair an chloig. Tháinig mo bhrionglóid fíor, Bhí mo lámh a chroitheadh, agus chaill mé mo bonn. Cad oíche!"

Cuireann Mercer daoine den 2020 USA Dornálaíochta Oilimpeacha Cáilíocht Foireann amháin beagán de comhairle, "Troid Coinnigh, leanúint do bhrionglóid agus a ghlacadh go céim dheireanach. "

Sleachta & PICTURES FROM THE NYSBHOF INDUCTEES

 


(L-R) – ron McNair, Jake Rodriguez and Bob Duffy
JAKE RODRIGUEZ: “I want to thank Ring 8 for the opportunity for me to be here. I’d also like to thank my wife for always being there for me, and my trainer.”

(L-R) – Herb Goldman, Don Majeski and Bob Duffy
HERB GOLDMAN: “If I have made any contributions to boxing – I hope I have – I did by redefining record keeping and creating a new perspective on boxing history. I’m proud of that, but I didn’t do it alone.”
(L-R) – Joe Mesi, Jack Hirsch and Bob Duffy
JOE MESI: “I have so many people to thank for this honor. I’m a Buffalonian. There’s nobody more in favor of one New York, but it’s not. This is special for me because it’s the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame. This solidifies me and makes me think I’m not just a local boy. There was a huge disadvantage coming from a small city, sparring wasn’t the same as in the gyms of New York City, but I had an advantage coming from Western New York. Nobody was welling out like we did in Buffalo with 10,000, ansin 16,00 and finally 18,000 daoine. They were always behind me and I share this with them because their support made me. My dream was to fight in Buffalo and to continue to fight there.
“One of the highlights of my life was fighting Monte Barrett on HBO in Madison Square Garden. He was one of the greatest fighters in the world who fought for the world title. I always wanted to get my world title shot, but I never got it. That’s okay, I was little bitter for a while, but I couldn’t be happier with my career. The best part of boxing is the brotherhood we share.

(L-R) – Randy Gordon, Ron Scott Stevens and Bob Duffy
RON SCOTT STEVENS: “I know people always say it, but this is the truth: I owe so many people who have supported me throughout my career. Boxing has always been home away from home for me and today I feel like I’m home.
“Bhí mé 30, living in Brooklyn Heights, and back driving a taxi a waiting on tables. A light went off in my head: boxing is the sport of the underdog and I’m an underdog. The next day I went to Gleason’s Gym – the center of the universe. I made my way around all the gyms in the city, meeting promoters, managers and trainers. I started making matches for promoters and then Cedric Kushner hired me from 1980-2002. I 2002, I got a call to work for the New York State Athletic Commission as its Community Co-Ordinator and Director of Boxing. Ansin, I was made chairman and I served two terms. Sa lá atá inniu, I’m extremely proud to be part of the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame.

(L-R) – Bob Duffy, Henry Hascup, Bob Goodman and Tommy Gallagher
BOB GOODMAN: “I can’t believe this crowd. In order to do what we do, the sacrifices and support you get from your family is so important and (in Goodman’s case) was for so many years. They allowed us to do what we do. All of us love boxing!”

(L-R) – Ray Mercer, Penny Allen, Al Cole, Clay Jenkins and Bob Duffy
AL COLE: “I thought boxing was the stupidest and dumbest sport ever. Who wanted to get punched in the face? I started boxing late. I played around some and people said I was pretty good. I started boxing when I was 20, in the Army, stationed at Ft. Hood. Four years later, I was on the Olympic Team. The reason why is I had a great sparring partner, Ray Mercer. If I was going to be in the ring everyday with Ray, I was either going to get beat up, or get better.
“I remember Bob Arum giving me his business card. I didn’t know him. I only knew of three people in boxing: Don King, Muhammad Ali agus Siúcra Ray Leonard. I didn’t follow boxing and the only reason I boxed was I would have had to sleep in the woods if I didn’t (in Army). Boxing is: hit him, before he hits me.”

(L-R) – Bobby Cassidy, Jr, Jaime Drubin and Pete Brodsky
PETE BRODSKY: “I want to thank the board. I’m going to be 70 and started in boxing when I was 18. It created a new direction in my life. I’m so proud to be in company with guys who didn’t just talk it, they loved it. If you really love this sport, you really have to learn it. Any man who stepped in the ring, plus all the roadwork, time in the gym and sacrificing what they eat, did it to be the best they can be.
“In boxing, you’re not going to win every fight, but whether a fighter wins or loses, if he gives 100-percent, he’s a winner. They work a job, run five miles day, workout at the gym, and then went home to spend time with his family. Friends and family always have your back.”

(L-R) – Darryl Peoples & Melvina Lathan
MELVINA LATHAM: “I’m speechless. It’s wonderful. Randy (former NYSAC chairperson Gordon), do you remember this story? There were only three judges and, ar an drochuair, one called in sick. I was sitting at ringside with no responsibilities. Randy said I had to workanocht. I said that I wasn’t licensed and couldn’t do it. Randy said, ‘Raise your right hand’, and it was on. I was thrown in there, but it was okay.
“My greatest accomplishments are my children and husband. I couldn’t ask for a better situation. Agus Ralph Petrillo is part of my family; he was my second in command. I also had the best officials: deputy commissioners, inspectors, judges and referees. I wouldn’t be here with without them. Bob Duffy put this whole thing together. I personally think he’s amazing. My journey continues, I am blessed.”

(L-R) – Bob and Murray Goodman
NUA-EABHRAC (Márta 26, 2018) – Boxing lifers Bob Goodman agus a athair, nach maireann Murray Goodman, are among 23 members of the Class of 2018 being inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame (NYSBHOF) ar Dé Domhnaigh tráthnóna (12:30-5:30 p.m. AGUS), Aibreán 29.
The seventh annual NYSBHOF induction dinner will be held once again at Russo’s On The Bay in Howard Beach, Nua-Eabhrac.
A legendary boxing publicist, Murray Goodman (             ) brought his son into the sweet science when Bob was only eight years old. The rest was historic for the Goodmans, who are both inductees in several Halls of Fame, including the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
“This is a great honor for me and my father,” Bob said. “I wish he were alive today to be there. I’m a boxing lifer. I was eight years old going to all the training camps with my father, who was a boxing writer and sports editor for the INS (Hearst News Service) Seirbhís. The joke is I was conceived at Grossinger’s (Catskill Resort Hotel training camp). Boxing just came into my life. My dad and I had some businesses in promotions and public relations, all different kinds of sports-related businesses, but there was always boxing.
“I’m the luckiest guy in the world. I was brought up doing the very things I loved. How many people can say that? I met and became friends with Joe Louis, Marcel Cerdan, Siúcra Ray Robinson, Rocky Graziano, Rocky Marciano and so many others. I’d stay in camps for weeks. I’d get up to run with the boxers and got a chance to be around my heroes. I also got to know trainers and others in boxing and later fans. I got to know everybody. I was brought up in boxing, my whole life was boxing, 65 years in the business.”
Bob is, b'fhéidir, best known as Vice President and Matchmaker for Madison Square Garden (1985-1994), as well as a quarter-century serving as Vice President of Boxing Operations, Matchmaker and Director of Public Relations for Don King Productions. He also promoted many world champions as President of his own company, Garden State Boxing.
“I remember going away to training camps for weeks at a time,” the 78-year-old Goodman fondly remembered. “I’d take pictures, write stories every day and use my telecopier to send them to AP and UPI. I did so much being brought up un the business, even loading trucks up with chairs, an fáinne, speakers and more. My father was the Publicity Director for the International Boxing Club at Madison Square Garden. I worked there when I was a teenager.
“I’m honored to be inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame with my father and so many boxing guys. They’re different from people in any other sports. One of the awards I’ve won that I’m most proud of is the James J. Walker Memorial Award for Long and Meritorious Service to Boxing (BWAA in 1960).
“I’m fortunate to have transcended various eras in boxing. It was a different world back then, we had 20-30 writers stay for weeks at training camps. I got to know old-time boxers and trainers.”

In Maspeth, NY
NUA-EABHRAC (Samhain 15, 2017)) – Halla na Famer Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield and former world welterweight champion Luis Collazo will be special guest speakers at Ring 8’s next monthly meeting,Dé Máirt oíche, Samhain 21, at O’Neill’s Restaurant (64-21 53rd Drive) in Maspeth, Nua-Eabhrac,
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,” Ring 8 uachtarán Jack Hirsch Dúirt. “Mar sin,, 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. Ina áit sin, 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. Cluichí Oilimpeacha, 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 de 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 Saoiste, Larry Holmes, Riddick Bowe agus Mike Tyson (faoi ​​dhó), i measc na notables níos mó.
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 i Worcester, Massachusetts.
The 26-year-old Collazo, who has also defeated world champions Miguel Angel Gonzalez agus 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.
