One of the best all-time…. 1988 Olympic silver medalist Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe

COLORADO SPRINGS, Putaran. (Bulan Maret 9, 2020) – By any standards, DIRI KITA. Olympian and former unified World heavyweight champion Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe is inarguably one of the all-time greatest boxers, amatir dan profesional.

Born and raised in the infamous Brownsville section of Brooklyn, New York, which also produced fellow World heavyweight championsMike Tyson danShannon Briggs, Bowe started boxing at 13 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant Boxing Association Gym.

“I wanted to do everythingMuhammad Ali did,” Bowe explained why he got into boxing. “He was my idol. I wanted to join the Marines, but I fell in love with boxing and stayed with it. I forgot about the Marines.”

Bowe developed his craft and became an outstanding boxer, kompilasi 104-18 catatan amatir, highlighted by his controversial silver-medal winning performance at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Korea Selatan.

A four-time New York Golden Gloves champion, Bowe also captured top honors at the 1986 Junior World Championships, along with a bronze medal at the 1987 Pan American Games, despite fighting in his final match with a fractured hand he hid from his coaches.

Bowe had a rivalry withRobert Salters, with whom he split four matches, but he defeated Salters, 3-2, di luar AS. Box-Offs to qualify for the 1988 USA Boxing Olympic Team. His Olympic teammates includedRoy Jones, Jr., Ray MercerKennedy McKinney danAndrew Maynard.

Controversary surrounded his Olympic championship fight against future World heavyweight champion, Canadian super heavyweight Lennox Lewis, who returned home with the Olympic gold medal. During his fight with Lewis, Bowe was deducted a point for a “ghost” head butt that never happened, and the referee gave Bowe a pair of disputed standing-eight counts, the last of which resulted in the stoppage of the fight in Lewis’ favor.

“That fight never should have been stopped,” Bowe commented. “I’m still happy about winning a silver medal. I still have it. And then I turned pro. My mother had 13 kids and I wanted to make my mother happy. I wanted to buy her a house. That’s what inspired me to box.”

“Bowe’s success as an amateur and professional has made him a household name amongst USA Boxing Alumni,"KataChris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Director. “His combination of power and skill, along with his legendary battles with other USA Boxing Alumni at the pro ranks, establishes him as one of the greatest fighters that USA Boxing has ever produced.”

Bowe later avenged his lone pro loss to Holyfield, winning two of three fights with the “Real Deal.”

“I’m very happy with my pro career,” Bowe added. “I beat Holyfield two times and I think it should have been three. I’m not a sore loser, but I was the World heavyweight champion. How did he win that fight? The challenger needs to take the belt from the champion, and he didn’t do that. I thought I won by a point, at worst, maybe it should have been a draw, but I shouldn’t have lost the fight. I did become the first to ever knockout Holyfield. My pro career wasn’t too bad. I kept working hard and became two-time World heavyweight champion.”

Saat Ini 51 and living in Maryland, Bowe has some advice for the American boxers trying to qualify for the 2020 Team USA Boxing Olympic Team.

“Just don’t think about it,” stressed Bowe, sounding like a Nike commercial. “Just do it! It worked for me. I showed up and didn’t think about it. And always finish strong.”

Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2015, left his mark in amateur and pro boxing. Nobody can ever take that away from the big guy from Brownsville.

“On behalf of our family,” Joe’s sonMarvis Frazier tersebut, “we’d like to thank the USA Boxing Alumni Association for remembering Joe Frazier. Honoring him like this will introduce to him to new generations of boxing fans.

“My father learned discipline he needed to go on and win Olympic gold and do what he need to be world champion. He took that to the pros and beatMuhammad Ali in the best fight in the world. They were two great champions who worked together to show people what boxing is really all about.”

Born in South Carolina, Frazier was well known as an elite Philadelphia boxing product, kompilasi 38-2 amateur record. He was a three-time National Golden Gloves champion whose only two losses were both toBuster Mathis, who was the only opponent to defeat Frazier, including a loss by decision – questionable according to Frazier – in the Olympic Trials.

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.

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, melawanHans 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.”

Frazier (32-4-1, 27 Biaya) went on to become a three-time world heavyweight champion, defeating the likes ofMuhammad AliJimmy Ellis (dua kali), Bob Foster, Oscar Bonavena(dua kali), Jerry Quarry, MathisDoug JonesEddie Machen danGeorge 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,” addedChris Cugliari, Direktur Eksekutif Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS. “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.

Just make sure you don’t listen to people with bad intentions because you’ve got natural talent.He believed in me even if some people did not think I would ever become a world champion.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward impacted the lives of so many who walked through the doors of Kronk Gym,” tersebut Chris Cugliari, Direktur Eksekutif Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS. “While he’s most recognized for his achievement at the professional level, his impact was significant in the amateurs. Manny serves as a model coach for USA Boxing today, and his impact will be felt for a long time.

I would notice him in the crowd. I would ball him out and then we did the same thing the following year.

 

 

 

I also used to see him at big fights and he would always make me feel special by saying my company saved boxing in the seventies and eighties by providing safe, well-made, fair priced boxing equipment for the sport.

“Saya merasa terhormat terpilih untuk dilantik ke dalam Hall of Fame Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS,” Jones berkomentar, “terutama sebagai anggota kelas yang hebat ini dengan teman-teman yang dilantik.

 

 

 

“Tinju amatir memberi saya kesempatan untuk mempelajari keterampilan hidup serta menghadapi setiap skenario yang mungkin terjadi di dalam ring.”

 

 

 

Jones, ironisnya, terjun ke tinju pada usia 11 karena Ali. “Saya melihat Ali vs.. (Joe) Frazierdan hanya merasa seolah-olah Ali dan saya memiliki konsep mental yang sama tentang hidup,” Jones menjelaskan.

 

 

 

Jones kemudian menjadi salah satu petinju amatir terbaik di dunia, menyusun laporan 121-13 catatan, termasuk penampilan medali emas di 1984 Olimpiade Junior Nasional dan 1986 & 1987 Turnamen Sarung Tangan Emas Nasional.

 

 

 

Pada 1988 Olimpiade di Seoul, Korea Selatan, Jones mencapai final kejuaraan divisi kelas menengah ringan melawan Taman Si-Hun, dari Korea Selatan.

Bahkan lawannya mengakui bahwa Jones memenangkan pertarungannya, memimpin AIBA untuk kemudian menangguhkan tiga juri yang memilih petarung kampung halaman sebagai pemenang.

 

 

 

Betapa memalukan keputusan ini? Jones terpilih sebagai pemenang Trofi Val Barker sebagai petinju terbaik 1988 Olimpiade dan, karena kontroversi, sistem penilaian untuk tinju Olimpiade diubah, mengganti sistem 20-poin must dengan penilaian elektronik.

 

 

 

“Saya marah,” Jones mengakui, “belum dipromosikan untuk membuktikan bahwa saya petarung terbaik di sana, dan di dunia, pada waktu itu.”

Pemilik kecepatan tangan dan kaki yang luar biasa, atletis, gerakan dan refleks, Jones tidak terkalahkan melalui yang pertama 34 perkelahian pro, 22-3 (14) dalam perkelahian gelar juara dunia. Melawan mantan, juara dunia sekarang atau masa depan, Jones dulu 19-9 (8 Biaya) dan termasuk di antara korbannya adalah orang-orang hebat seperti Bernard Hopkins, James Toney, Mike McCallum,Vinnie Pazienza, Virgil Bukit, Antonio Tarver dan Felix Trinidad.

 

 

 

Hari Ini, Jones yang berusia 49 tahun, berbicara secara teknis, masih petarung aktif. Dia juga memiliki dua perusahaan promosi dan pusat kebugaran, terletak di Pensacola dan Las Vegas, melatih beberapa petinju profesional dan berfungsi sebagai komentator warna untuk HBO Boxing. Dia baru-baru ini membuka gym di Afrika Selatan.

 

 

 

Selama dua tahun terakhir, Jones telah menjadi tuan rumah “Bintang Turnamen Tinju Masa Depan” di Las Vegas, menampilkan beberapa petinju amatir terbaik di dunia.

 

 

 

“Menjadi tuan rumah turnamen di Las Vegas memberi saya kesempatan untuk membalas tinju amatir,” Jones menjelaskan. “Ini adalah pengalaman yang luar biasa bagi para petinju dan mengingatkan mereka bahwa siapa yang mungkin mereka miliki atau masih mereka hormati, sedang mengawasi mereka juga.”

“Ketika alumni USA Boxing mendiskusikan petarung favorit mereka,” tersebut Chris Cugliari, Direktur Eksekutif Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS, “Roy Jones berada di dekat bagian atas daftar semua orang. Bakatnya yang spektakuler, dedikasi untuk keahliannya, dan kepribadian yang menular membuatnya tidak perlu dipikirkan lagi untuk menjadi tajuk utama di kelas Hall of Fame tahun ini. Dia terus memberikan kembali kepada tinju amatir dan mendukung generasi berikutnya. Roy pantas dirayakan atas semua yang telah dia capai, dan kami berharap untuk menghormatinya di bulan Desember.”

Kutipan Catatan dari Juara Dunia lainnya

 

George Foreman: “(Jones) hits seperti kelas berat dan bergerak seperti ringan.”

 

Montell Griffin: “Floyd (Mayweather, Jr.) tidak ada perbandingan sejauh kecepatan. Roy jauh lebih cepat.”

 

Mike McCallum: “(Jones adalah) petarung terhebat sepanjang masa.”

 

 

 

 

Jika dia pernah menutup sarung tangannya untuk selamanya, Roy Jones, Jr. akan menjadi penerima suara pertama di International Boxing Hall of Fame. Mungkin tidak akan pernah ada petinju lain yang seperti RJJ.
