فئة 2019



MARK BRELAND

علامة Breland: “I enjoy boxing, it’s a lot of fun. I’m glad to be here because I’ve seen a lot of fighters I grew up with in the amateurs. I enjoy boxing because it kept me off the streets. I wasn’t a street guy., My father would have beaten me up if I had gotten into trouble in the streets. Boxing kept me off the streets, kept me in the gym. I guess I was good at it. I had a fight with a bully when I was 14 and I beat him up. I went to the gym the same day and my coach asked me what happened. My knuckles were shredded with blood. I told him I had a fight in the street. He said you can’t fight in the street. Then I realized boxing and street fighting are two different things.

شيلي فينكل (his manager), when he came into my life, changed a lot of things. Things changed a lot. I focused more on boxing, focused on the Olympic Games, and won championships. Every tournament I went into, فزت, but it was a lot of fun. I wanted to inspire youths. I hope I can inspire some amateurs coming up. To keep going, stay off the streets, and do something that can change your life in a good way., Eddie Futch for life!”



JOE FRAZIER

مارفيس فرايزر(Joe’s son, في الصورة): “It is so good today to speak about my father, what he meant to me, and Joe Frazier always said to me, ‘There’s no right way to do wrong, no wrong way to do right.’ هو قال, if you don’t do right, you’re going to smell this, putting his left fist right to my nose. When it was time for me to do bad, it wasn’t me, wasn’t Marvis Frazier. هكذا, اليوم, I’m still smelling it even if he’s not here.

I just love to talk boxing. As an amateur I was 46-1 and then when I turned pro, I beat the guy who had knocked me out. I love my father. He was a good guy and a champion. I know everybody know Muhammad Ali and I know everybody know ‘SmokinJoe Frazier.



AL MITCHELL

آل ميتشل:I got rid of anybody over 16 who didn’t want to go to school. I’ve been doing this the longest time and I want to thank the coaches. I had three or four who didn’t care about boxing, but they wanted their kids to get an education. Izzy Acosta is one. I got a perfect record at Marquette High, they’ve all graduated. I have four kids with master’s degrees, لدي 14 who have degrees, and four guys who are policemen and no way they should be policemen. أنا المباركة.

Old coaches would tell one you’re only as good as your memories. It’s crazy with kids 14, 14, 15. I had a kid named Vernon Forrest, a four-time world champion., It’s not just about boxing. It’s getting an education and after ten years they have a good life. I want to thank you all for putting me in the Hall of Fame.




Michael Rodgers (Ray’s son): “أولا, I want to apologize for my father for not being here. He hurt his back over the weekend working a boxing match, believe it or not, and he apologizes for not being here.

I want to thank USA Boxing and the Alumni Association for recognizing my father for this award. And when he heard about this, he said he didn’t do any of these things during the 72 years he’s been in the sport for awards. He just did what he did for the love this sport and he did what needed to be done.

USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION



مايك مكاتي, مدير تنفيذي, الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية للملاكمة (في الصورة): “On behalf of the Board of Directors, President Tyson Lee, I can only say thank you, شكرا, and thank you. هذه الليلة, is a culmination of work between our members, our alumni association, but I have to recognize a couple of people. This great event wouldn’t be done without Chris Cugliari, Al Valenti and Nicole Anderson, our Alumni Association Coordinator.

I have the honor of talking about boxing and obviously we have passion. When Marvis Frazier said this was a brotherhood, a sisterhood, and none of us, quite frankly, who’ve stepped in the ringI include myself in thatwe’re not right. Takes a special person to climb in the ropes. You all can give yourselves a hand for not being right.

USA Boxing is proud of our history, but more proud of our future, and I can tell you the young men and women battling at the elite levels, we started at 104 and that will be taken down to 13 by Sunday evening. لكن, أكثر أهمية, we’re going to be breeding the next generation of champions, because this is closing the chapter of 2020, but starting the chapter of 2024, and ultimately, when the Olympic Games comeback here in 2028. This is a special time.



كريس tofflemire, مدير تنفيذي, رابطة خريجي الملاكمة USA: “Three years ago a group of us sat around a table in Kansas City at the National Championships and this idea was hatched: جون براون, في فالنتي, جون سكالي, Christy Halbert, Mike McAtee and a few others. هكذا, it’s something I’m very proud of and an organization I’m proud to lead with the support of all of you.

A quick update of the Alumni Association, we’re at about 1200 members right now and this is our third year. We had events across the country the past year, honoring Micky Ward and Vinny Pazianza in the New England area. We gathered in Chicago. We honored Izzy Acosta at the Junior Olympics in Wisconsin, as well as Buster Douglas and coach Mike Stafford at the Ohio Legends celebration, and here we are today honoring our third Hall of Fame class. We’ve come a long way. Our theme in 2020 is two missions: أولا, we want to take this down to the grassroots level, second is supporting our athletes and their families as they travel to the 2020 Olympic Games.



في فالنتي, Special Projects Consultant for USA Boxing: “USA Boxing is the one fundamental difference that makes a difference in a young person’s life. The path to self-confidence, the path to self-respect, انضباط, فوز, and how to accept defeat all comes through amateur boxing.

“هذه الليلة, the story will be told. هذه الليلة, we will take you on a path, of amateur boxing in the United States that rivals no other nation. Gold medalists, silver medalists, المدربين, مسؤولون, الأطباء…they’re all here. It’s like Woodstock for boxing; everybody’s here!”



آل بيرنشتاين, Master of Ceremonies: “I’m delighted to be back here for my third year at USA Boxing’s Alumni Association Hall of Fame. I hosted a lot of events, MC’d a lot of events, and this is the final event because it’s in the end of December. It’s definitely my favorite.

3rd annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception

Sen. John McCain to be honored

فئة من 2019 ceremonyيوم الجمعة at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا

COLORADO SPRINGS, حضن. (ديسمبر 11, 2019) -Senator John McCain will be posthumously presented a Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work to protect boxers and elevate the sport this Friday night at a special ceremony during the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا.

The HOF reception is being held in conjunction with the ongoing 2020 الامريكى. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing and 2019 National Championships at the Lake Charles Civic Center. The finals of the Olympic Trials will be held Sunday, ديسمبر. 15, في فندق Golden Nugget & كازينو. Hall of Fame broadcasterآل بيرنشتاين from Showtime Sports will serve as the event’s emcee for the third year in a row.

The USA Boxing Alumni Association’s third HOF class also includes three Olympic gold-medalists“Big” George Foremanعلامة Brelandو“Smokin’” Joe Frazier, as well as legendary coachesآل ميتشل وRay Rodgers.

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, انضباط, 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,"وقالChris 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, الملاكمة للهواة, and Senator McCain never hesitated to offer to do more for our athletes.

فئة من 2019 ceremony Dec. 13 at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا

COLORADO SPRINGS, حضن. (ديسمبر 3, 2019) – Arguably the greatest American amateur boxer of all-timeعلامة Breland will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame on Friday night, ديسمبر 13, during a special Class of 2019 ceremony at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا.

The HOF reception is being held in conjunction with the 2020 الامريكى. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing and 2019 البطولات الوطنية, ديسمبر. 7-15, في مركز ليك تشارلز سيفيك. The finals of the Olympic Trials will be held Sunday, ديسمبر. 15, في فندق Golden Nugget & كازينو. Hall of Fame broadcasterآل بيرنشتاين from Showtime Sports will serve as the event’s emcee for the third year in a row.

The USA Boxing Alumni Association’s third HOF class also includes two other Olympic gold-medalists“Big” George Foremanو “Smokin’” Joe Frazier, as well as legendary coachesآل ميتشل وRay Rodgers

Sen. John McCain 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 withإيفاندر (هوليفيلد) (محمدهل, رئيس العمال, Frazier…champs like that, it’s something for me to be with them.”

Breland, ومن المفارقات, first got into boxing at the age of eight, due to him being brought to his first boxing match, Frazier-Ali I, at Madison Square Garden. “We were up in the top seats,” the Brooklyn-born and raised Breland remembered like it was yesterday. “The crowd, the atmosphere…all I could think of was, رائع!  I didn’t realize until I got older that there were so many stars there watching Ali and Frazier, because they were all at ringside.

“The next day I went to a gym. I was really skinny, small, but I came back the next day. I enjoyed working out and fell in love with boxing. I wanted to box in big tournaments. This is what I wanted to do, but I had hid boxing from my parents. They knew I had I played football, but that was okay with them, because unlike in boxing, we had a helmet. I won at the Junior Olympics and it was in the papers. I saw it and thought my mother was going to kill me. My mother asked me why I hadn’t told her, so I invited her to watch me fight in the Golden Gloves. She was in one of the front rows, but afterwards when I asked her what she thought when I knocked out my opponent, she said she didn’t see it because she had closed her eyes.”

Breland went on to become a five-time New York Golden Gloves champion with a 21-0 سجل, بما فيه 19 بالضربة القاضية, 14 coming in the opening round. In 1982, Breland captured a gold medal at the prestigious World Championships in Munich, ألمانيا, after which he was named the No. 1 welterweight in the world by AIBA. He was also selected as Boxer of the Year (1982) by USAABF.

في 1984 مهرجان المباريات الأولمبية, held in Los Angeles, Breland fought his way to a gold medal,

along with eight of his American teammatesPaul GonzalezSteve McCroryMeldrick تايلوربرنل ويتيكرJerry Page,فرانك تيتHenry Tillman وTyrell Biggs.

Breland, who completed his amateur career with an amazing 110-1 (73 كوس) سجل, 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); it’s just me. I’m happy to win and happy to be doing what I do.”

“Mark’s dominance over his competition throughout his USA Boxing career cements him as a legend,” commentedChris Cugliari, المدير التنفيذي لرابطة خريجي الملاكمة بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية. “His ring intelligence, commitment to his craft, and ability to fight at any pace against any style makes him a tremendous example for today’s group of amateur champions. It has been a long time coming, but the Alumni Association looks forward to reflecting on his accomplishments and honoring Mark in Louisiana.”

Confirmed special guests include 1988 الميدالية الذهبية الاولمبيةأندرو ماينارد, three-time National AAU Coach of the Year (1972-76-77) Joe Clough, 1984 Olympic gold medalist Frank تيتوشقيقهتوماس, 1972 أولمبيTim Dement, 2002 الوطني بطل قفازات الذهبيJaidon Codringtion, 1980 Olympic QualifierJackie Beard, 1981 دورة الالعاب الاولمبية للناشئينGlen Modicue, four-time National championإيريك كيلي, 1988 Eastern Olympic Qualifier championجون سكاليObie BeardMark Lanton وStephensbrothers –Donaldأنتوني وجيري.

Breland made his much-anticipated pro debut November 15, 1984, at the famed Madison Square Garden, defeating Dwight Williams by way of a six-round unanimous decision. During his illustrious pro career (1984-1997), Breland compiled a sterling 35-3-1 (35 كوس) record and he was a two-time World welterweight champion.

The 56-year-old Breland, who once trained the late, جميل روعة 1992 الأولمبي الأمريكيVernon Forrest, currently trains another great USA Boxing alumni and 2008 الميدالية البرونزية الاولمبية, ديونتاري وايلدر, 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.”

Closing cuts & controlling blood flow leads 83-year-old Ray Rodgers into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame

فئة من 2019 ceremony Dec. 13 at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا

COLORADO SPRINGS, حضن. (تشرين الثاني 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, ديسمبر 13, during a special Class of 2019 ceremony, في فندق Golden Nugget & Casino in Lake Charles, لويزيانا.

The HOF reception is being held in conjunction with the 2020 الامريكى. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing and 2019 البطولات الوطنية, ديسمبر. 7-15, في مركز ليك تشارلز سيفيك. The finals of the Olympic Trials will be held Sunday, ديسمبر. 15, في فندق Golden Nugget & كازينو.

Sen. John McCain will be posthumously presented a special Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work to protect boxers and elevate the sport.

There isn’t much in boxing, if anything, that Rodgers hasn’t done: ملاكم, official, مدرب, administrator and, بالطبع, قطع رجل. “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, “كنت مدمن مخدرات. 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 و تومي موريسون.

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.

He was the first national official of both the Golden Gloves and Silver Gloves. أكثر, he’s already been inducted in three Hall of Fames: القفازات الفضية, Golden Gloves and Arkansas Sports HOF.

Ray’s sacrifice to countless youth as a coach, الناصح, قطع رجل, and leader throughout the amateur boxing community is inspirational,” علق كريس tofflemire, المدير التنفيذي لرابطة خريجي الملاكمة بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية. “His years of service and the knowledge he has passed on to other generations is what makes him a Hall of Famer, and we look forward to honoring him in December.

Rodgers hasn’t slowed down, despite recently celebrating his 83الثالثة عيد ميلاد. He still owns and operates Ray Rodgers Boxing Club in West Little Rock, أركنساس, in addition to serving as director of the Arkansas Golden Gloves and Mid-South Tournament, which includes Louisiana, ميسيسيبي, Western Tennessee and Arkansas. And he’s also the vice-president of the National Golden Gloves and chairman of the National Silver Gloves.

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

Confirmed special guests include 1988 الميدالية الذهبية الاولمبية أندرو ماينارد, three-time National AAU Coach of the Year (1972-76-77) Joe Clough, 1984 الميدالية الذهبية الاولمبية فرانك تيت وشقيقه توماس, 1972 أولمبي Tim Dement, 2002 الوطني بطل قفازات الذهبي Jaidon Codringtion, 1980 Olympic Qualifier Jackie Beard, 1981 دورة الالعاب الاولمبية للناشئين Glen Modicue, four-time National champion إيريك كيلي, 1988 Eastern Olympic Qualifier champion جون سكالي, Obie Beard, Mark Lanton وStephens الإخوة – Donald, أنتوني و جيري.

When U.S. Olympic Team heavyweight qualifierBuster Mathis was unable to compete at the 1964 Olympic Games due to injury, Frazier took full advantage of this opportunity as a replacement.

Frazier went on to become one of only four American boxers to medal in Tokyo, Joe the lone gold medalist, despite breaking a thumb in the semifinals. في الجولة الافتتاحية, Frazier knocked outGeorge Olynello (أوغندا), followed by a third-round stoppage ofAthol McQueen (أستراليا) in the quarterfinals. AgainstVadim Yemelyanov (روسيا) في الدور نصف النهائي, Frazier won by way of a second round KO, even though he broke his left thumb.

Unwilling to tell anybody that he had broken his thumb, fearing that he wouldn’t be allowed to fight, Frazier showed the tremendous grit he became famous for by winning a close decision, 3-2, مقابلHans Huber (United Team of Germany) in the championship final to capture a gold medal.

“Winning an Olympic gold medal was the highlight of his amateur career,” Marvis noted. “It meant that he was the best in the world, and it also made things easier for his next step into the pros. I think he felt it helped made him a real man, the best in the world, and not many people can say that. Winning Olympic gold with a broken thumb showed our father what he could do and proved that he was the man. He wasn’t afraid to get the job done. No excuses, get the jog done, was what my father said all the time. And you better had gotten the job done.”

فرايزر (32-4-1, 27 كوس) went on to become a three-time world heavyweight champion, defeating the likes ofمحمد عليجيمي إليس (مرتين), بوب فوستر, Oscar Bonavena(مرتين), Jerry Quarry, Mathisدوغ جونزإدي مشن] وجورج Chuvalo during his 16-year professional career.

Listed at only 5-11 ½, Frazier was best known for his bobby, weaving, relentless pressure and liver-damaging left hook. He passed away November 7, 2011 due to complications from liver cancer at the age of 67.

“Joe’s legacy will live on forever throughout USA Boxing,” addedكريس tofflemire, المدير التنفيذي لرابطة خريجي الملاكمة بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية. “His toughness and heart were second to none, and today’s USA Boxing champions can look to Joe for the definition of a champion in and out of the ring. We look forward to honoring his legacy as a Hall of Famer on December 13عشر."

Iceman John Scully’s 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion


السبت, مارس 18, 2017
12:00 ظهيرة (until around 3 رئيس الوزراء)
@ Monique’s Lounge (ويعرف أيضا باسم 108 Lounge)
181 East 108th Street
East Harlem, نيويورك
10029
I am proud to officially announce my 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion that will take place on March 18 at Monique’s Lounge in Harlem, نيويورك. I am expecting by far the largest turn out of any of the previous 5 reunions which were held twice at Rival Boxing in Las Vegas, once at Jimmy’s Corner in Manhattan and once each at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Casinos.
Of the over 100 boxers attending this far, among them I expect the likes of 1988 الميدالية الفضية الاولمبية Riddick Big Daddy Bowe, NYC Golden Gloves Champ Poison” جديد جونز, 1984 Olympic champ علامة Breland, 1974 National Junior Olympic champ مارلون الزرزور, 1996 USA Olympic team captain لورانس كلاي بيه و 1988 الذهبي الوطنية قفازات بطل علامة “شارب جدا” جونسون.
At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on تشرين الثاني 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., أليكس “الانتحاري برونكس” راموس, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, و “المحارب” and Irish Micky Ward in attendance.
Among the most special of moments at my reunions, we had Mike McCallum and Alex Ramos, who met each other in the semi-finals of the 1980 NYC Golden Gloves, reconnect in Las Vegas in late 2014, we had Luis Ortiz and Lawrence Clay-Bey, who were brought together in 2015 at Foxwoods after not only not seeing each other in 38 YEARS but after not even knowing they fought against each other in 1977 until just a few days before they reunited and in NYC over the summer of 2015 كان لدينا 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up DennisThe MagicianMilton and Jesse Lanton connect once again.
Any media who wish to attend the event in Harlem, New York on March 18 are more than welcome to be a part of the festivities.
