The other new CBHOF inductees are pioneer boxer “Professor” Charles Hadley, ring physician Dr. Tony Alessi, referee/judge Dick Flaherty, writer tinju 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 Senen Night Fights at Rhode Island Auditorium and I remember watching Rocky Marciano fight “Maung” 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 gelut pro, kaasup 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 taun: Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, Evander Holyfield, Julio Cesar Chavez, Johnny Tapia, Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Marco Antonio Barrera, Mark Johnson, Wayne McCullough, Wladimir Klitschko, Gennady Golovkin, Anthony Joshua, Sergey Kovalev, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Lopez, Nonito Donaire, Acelino Mantena, Ivan Calderón, Felix Trinidad, Tommy Morrison and many more.

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,” cenah. “This is a great way to end my career.”

Iceman John Scully’s 6th Official Amateur Boxing Reunion

Ninggalkeun comment hiji

Saptu, Maret 18, 2017
12:00 Beurang (until around 3 WIB)
@ Monique’s Lounge (alias 108 Lounge)
181 East 108th Street
East Harlem, York Énggal
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, York Énggal. 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 Olimpiade Silver medalist Riddick Big Daddy Bowe, NYC Golden Gloves Champ “Poison” Junior Santang, 1984 Olympic champ Mark Breland, 1974 National Junior Olympic champ Kasja Jalak, 1996 USA Olympic team captain Lawrence Clay-Bey jeung 1988 National Golden Gloves Champion Mark “Teuing Sharp” Adang.
At my past reunions, including the most recent one held at the Rival Boxing Store in Las Vegas on Nopember 18, we’ve had the likes of Roy Jones Jr., Alex “The Bronx ngabom” Ramos, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, former three time world champions Mike McCallum and Iran Barkley, jeung “The Fighter” 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 we had 1984 New York City Golden Gloves 156 pound champion and runner up Dennis “The Magician” Milton 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.
