Clark Sammartino

Uncasville, Conn. (Oktobris 19, 2017, 2017) – His induction into the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame (CBHOF) sestdien nakts, Oktobris 28, as part of the six-member Class of 2017, will cap the boxing career of retiring judge Clark Sammartino pie 13TH Gada CBHOF Gala Indukcijas Dinner in the Uncas balles pie Mohegan Sun.
The other new CBHOF inductees are pioneer boxerProfessorCharles Hadley, ring physician Dr. Tony Alessi, referee/judge Dick Flaherty, boksa rakstnieks Dan Parker and boxer/boxing contributor Hugh Devlin, Sr.
A graduate of Brown University, the now 80-year-old Sammartino has enjoyed two other careers as an oral surgeon and investment advisor at Blue Fin in Providence, in addition to his role as an international boxing judge since 1985.
I first got into boxing because Joey Angelo married my cousin,” Sammartino explained. “He fought back in the early forties. Joey fought Willie Pep twice and Sandy Saddler. That’s what got me started. We used to have the great Pirmdiena Night Fights at Rhode Island Auditorium and I remember watching Rocky Marciano fight “Tīģeris” Ted Lowry there.
Because he was a successful oral surgeon, Clark could take long weekends to judge fights all over the world. His first and most memorable world title fight was Vinny Paz-Greg Haughn I. Through his long career, Sammartino judged more than 400 pro cīņas, ieskaitot 50 major world title fights.
The list of boxers whose fights Sammartino judged reads like a Who’s Who of Boxing during the past 32 gadiem: Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, Evander Holyfield, Julio Cesar Chavez, Johnny Tapia, Naseem Hamed, Kriss Eubanks, Marco Antonio Barrera, Mark Johnson, Wayne McCullough, Wladimir Klitschko, Genādijs Golovkin, Anthony Joshua, Sergejs Kovaļevs, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Lopez, Nonito Donaire, Acelino Freitas, Ivan Calderon, Felix Trinidad, Tommy Morrison and many more.
Sammartino, who proudly says he never missed a day of work in 40 gadiem, has decided to retire, although he’ll remain a boxing fans for the rest of his life. “I started slowing down at my age, doing local shows and maybe three or four world title fights a year, mostly WBO and IBF,” Sammartino remarked. “I had a tough bout with pneumonia the past 5-6 months and that made working difficult.
His CBHOF induction is a fitting ending and tremendous tribute to Sammartino and his career in boxing. “I’m humbled to be inducted into the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame,” viņš teica. “This is a great way to end my career.

At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on Novembris 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., Alex “Bronksas bumbvedējs” Ramos, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, un “The Fighterand 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 we had 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up DennisThe MagicianMilton and Jesse Lanton connect once again.
