Final bell tolls for popular Boxing manager Si Stern

KEY WEST, Fla (Septembro 6, 2015) -Boxing manager Si #Posta?o, president of SHS Boxing Management, passed away at the age of 81 this past Monday due to complications from a heart attack.
Stern managed three-time, two-division RandallThe Knock Out King” Bailey, veteran heavyweight Sherman “Tanko” Williams, Marcus “Arillius” Upshaw and former Cuban Olympian Robert Alfonso.
A very successful businessman, Williams explained that Stern also had a law degree and studied at one point to be a rabbi. Si recently returned from Romania, where he supported Williams at his fight, Dimanĉe, Aug. 30 and he suffered a heart attack the following day at home in Key West. He was air lifted to a hospital in Miami, where he remained for a week before he succumbed.
Bailey and Stern’s partner, Dave Johnson, along with Stern’s son, Gary, and daughter, Cynthia, were bedside in the hospital with Si for several days until the end. “I spoke to Si on Sunday night (#A?gusto 30) and got a call the next day saying he had been admitted to the hospital,” Bailey explained. “He suffered a massive heart attack. Things were up and down all week until last weekend.

Si was a great guy and a good friend. As a manager, he always fought for his boxers. If nobody else cared, Si cared; if they couldn’t do it, Si would do it. I was with him nearly 10 years and nobody was throwing money our way. It was hard for us. I only made enough money in a few fights, like when I won the world title, where he took any money. If Si had your back, he’d go to war with you.
He’d drive up from Key West to Miami to see me but, instead of staying overnight, he’d drive back. He’d call me call me 10 times while he drove home. He was so happy to get me a promotional contract (AK Promotions in Korea) and was really looking forward to my fight October 4Th in Korea. I’m dedicating that fight to Si and we’ll be doing something special.

Williams was managed by Stern for the past 11 years and they had a special relationship. They had dinner together in Romania and flew back to the U.S., arriving Sunday, #A?gusto 30.
Si was much more than my manager,” Williams offered. “He was a good friend, a confident I could always rely on for advice, in and out of boxing. Si was an all-around good man. We had many deep discussion about politics and religion, me being a Christian and Si a Jew, especially spending so many days together in Romania.
We all lost a good man in Si Stern. I was proud to be represented by Si. He wasn’t in boxing for the money. He was an important part of my life. He was always there for me and all of his fighters. Si never took a short cut or spared money. Si Stern was the best manager I ever had.

MIAMI / SEOUL (#A?gusto 24, 2015) – Three-time, du-divido mondĉampiono RandallThe Knock Out King” Bailey (45-8, 38 KOs) has signed an exclusive promotional contract with South Korean-based AK Promotions, Bailey’s manager Si #Posta?o (SHS Boxing Management) Anoncis hodiaŭ.
Bailey, who fights out of Miami and is trained there by Orlando Cuellar, is scheduled to make his AK Promotions debut Oktobro 4, in the main event versus an opponent to be determined, at Seonhak Boxing Stadium in Inchon, Sudkoreio.
This is a very exciting opportunity for Randall,” Stern said. “I’ve had personal experiences in the Far East and one of my fighters, Sherman ‘Tank’ Williams, won a couple of titles there. (WBO China Zone and interim WBO Asia Pacific championships via a 12-round decision, Junio 28, 2012, #Kontra?. Chauncy Welliver in Macao, #?inio) I’ve been to South Korea and it’s an extremely exciting place. The great career of Randall Bailey will continue. I’d like to thank promoter Andy Kim for presenting us with this tremendous opportunity.
I’m very happy to have signed Randall Bailey,” AK Promotions president Andy Kim commented. “I hope this helps boost the Korean boxing scene. There are US Army personnel and a lot of foreigners in Korea and I hope it interests them, Tro. Espereble, Randall can get another world title shot soon and bring back a championship belt to Korea.
Bailey has defeated a litany of top junior welterweights and welterweights during his 19-year professional career, Inkluzivanta Mike Jones, Rocky Martinez, Carlos Gonzalez, Hector Lopez, Demetrio Ceballos, Anthony Mora, Juan Polo Perez,Frankie Figueroa, DeMarcus Corley, Harrison Cuello, Kaj Jackson Osei Bonsu.

Now on a mission to win a fourth world title in his third weight class, the always dangerous and feared junior middleweight believes this signing has given him a new lease on his boxing career. He has had many problems securing fights in the past few years simply because he’s such a risky opponent for champions, contenders and top prospects alike.
I can’t wait to go there,” Bailey (pictured on left with his head trainer Orlando Cuellar) Dirita. “This is going to do a lot for my career. I spoke to my new promoter and he’s as excited about signing me as I am about signing with him. He told me that getting me another world title is his goal. He knows me, liked what he saw, and he’s all about doing his job as my promoter.
I went to South Korea in 2005 with female boxer we brought there to fight. It was a nice trip, a lot of fun. Traveling to fight there won’t bother me a bit. I have a good contract, no complaints at all with what they’re giving me. I’ll go there a week before my fight to get acclimated. When I come back from a fight, I’ll only take two or three days off, and then go back in the gym because I know that I’ll be fighting every three or four months. I’m excited and ready to get there to fight.
The boxing center of gravity will soon shift towards South Korea when Randall Bailey makes his debut there,” Cuellar predicted. “One look at his devastating one-punch power and Koreans will fall in love with him. What Manny Pacquaio is in Macau and Roy Jones, Jr. En Rusio, Randall Bailey will become in South Korea. Bailey has a great opportunity to make a big splash in South Korea. Once Korean boxing fans get a taste of Bailey, they will be hooked.
Bailey has joined a growing stable of AK Promotions fighters, including newly signed heralded Pakistan amateur (87-16) super flyweight MuhammadFalconWaseem, WBC Asian Boxing Council welterweight champion Neeraj Goyat (3-2-2), of India, and middleweight Dilbag Singh (1-0), of India.
