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

कोलोराडोस्प्रिङ, ल्याप. (मार्च 9, 2020) – By any standards, U.S. Olympian and former unified World heavyweight champion Riddick “Big Daddy” Bowe is inarguably one of the all-time greatest boxers, अवैतनिक र व्यावसायिक.

Born and raised in the infamous Brownsville section of Brooklyn, न्यूयोर्क, which also produced fellow World heavyweight championsमाइक टायसन रShannon ब्रिग्स, Bowe started boxing at 13 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant Boxing Association Gym.

“I wanted to do everythingमुहम्मद अली 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, कम्पाइल एक 104-18 अवैतनिक रेकर्ड, highlighted by his controversial silver-medal winning performance at the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, दक्षिण कोरिया.

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 पान अमेरिकन खेल, 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, यो होटल Stay मा. Box-Offs to qualify for the 1988 USA Boxing Olympic Team. His Olympic teammates includedरय जोन्स, जूनियर., रे MercerKennedy McKinney रAndrew Maynard.

Controversary surrounded his Olympic championship fight against future World heavyweight champion, Canadian super heavyweight Lennox लुईस, 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,"भन्नुभयोक्रिस कुगलिआरी, 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.”

With legendary trainerकुर्कुच्चा Futch आफ्नो कुना मा, Bowe became the first truly unified World heavyweight champion, winning the title belt for all four recognized major sanctioning bodies: WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO.

Bowe retired with an amazing 43-1 (33 KOS) pro record. He had a 5-1 (4 KOS) mark in world title fights, 7-1 (5 KOS) versus past world heavyweight champions such asEvander Holyfield (दुई), Pinklon Thomasटोनी TubbsBruce SeldonMichael Dokes रHerbie Hyde.

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.”

अब 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.

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 KOS) went on to become a three-time world heavyweight champion, defeating the likes ofमुहम्मद अलीजिमी एलिस (दुई), बब Foster, Oscar Bonavena(दुई), Jerry Quarry, Mathisडग जोन्सEddie Machen रजर्ज Chuvalo during his 16-year professional career.

कोलोराडोस्प्रिङ, ल्याप. (नोभेम्बर 19, 2018) – The late Emanuel भण्डारे, arguably the greatest boxing trainer of all-time, is a member of the Class of 2018 getting inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, डिसेम्बर 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 एस. Temple St.) in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

Steward was a boxer, trainer extraordinaire, and HBO commentator until his untimely death in 2012 को उमेर मा 68. His boxing career culminated with his induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 1996.

 

 

 

वर्षको उमेरमा 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. एक शौकिया घूंसेबाज रूपमा, he compiled a 94-3 रेकर्ड, यो एक सुन-पदक प्रदर्शन गरेर हाइलाइट 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.

 

 

 

मा 1971, Steward became a part-time trainer at Kronk Gym, where he eventually guided many of the country’s top amateur boxers. Kronk Gym later became a property of Steward’s and he developed it into one of the most successful and famous boxing gyms in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

Steward also served as National Director of Coaching for USA Boxing in the early 2000’s.

 

 

 

Throughout his incredible career, Steward reportedly trained 41 संसारमा च्याम्पियन, सायद, the most noteworthy were थमस Hearns, Lennox लुईसWladimir Klitschko. He also trained Julio Cesar Chavez, मिगेल Cotto, ओस्कार डी ला होया, Naseem Hamed, Evander Holyfield, र माइक McCallum. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.

 

 

 

The last world champion Manny trained was अदोनिस “सुपरमैन” स्टीवेंसन, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.

 

 

 

Emanuel would always say, knockouts बेचन!” Stevenson fondly remembered. “He was also the first to tell me, ‘You will be a superstar and a world champion. 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,” भने क्रिस कुगलिआरी, युएसए बक्सिंग पूर्व छात्र संघ कार्यकारी निर्देशक. “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. The USA Boxing Alumni Association overwhelmingly supports his induction and looks forward to honoring him as part of this year’s Hall of Fame class.

For years he would come to my National Silver Gloves Tournament that I sponsored and put on in Kansa City just to show his support of the youth program,” added USA Boxing president यूहन्ना ब्राउन जोडी. “Every year I would tell him to let me know if he was coming, so I could VIP him, and every year he would ignore me and just quietly show up. 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. No one else ever gave me that recognition. He was humble and not a blowhard, my kind of guy.

 

 

 

Emanuel Steward left his mark on earth, not only as a multi-faceted personality in boxing, but he’s also remembered for his magnanimous charity work in Detroit, in which he helped youths in their pursuit of education.

 

 

 

छोटकरीमा, यद्यपि, he taught boxing, and nobody has ever done it any better.

Simply the best….. रय जोन्स, जूनियर.

यूएसए बक्सिंग पूर्व छात्र संघ, को वर्ग 2018 Inductee

कोलोराडोस्प्रिङ, ल्याप. (सेप्टेम्बर 6, 2018) – Living legend रय जोन्स, जूनियर., universally recognized as one of the greatest pound-for-pound boxers of all-time, leads a celebrated quintet of Class of 2018 inductees into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, डिसेम्बर 2-8, will be held Dec. 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 एस. Temple St.) in Salk Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

जोन्स अलावा, को क्लास 2018 also includes two U.S. Olympic gold medalists and world (व्यावसायिक) champions, Andre वडाClaressa ढाल, as well as former USA Boxing National Director of Coaching Emanuel भण्डारे and veteran USA Boxing official Tom Cleary. The latter two will be posthumously inducted.

 

 

 

The charter class inducted last year included मुहम्मद अलीEvander Holyfield, as well as veteran coaches Roosevelt SandersTom Coulter.

 

 

 

I am honored to be selected for induction into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Jones commented, “especially as a member of this great class with my fellow inductees.

 

 

 

Amateur boxing gave me the chance to learn life skills as well as face every other possible scenario inside of the ring.

 

 

 

जोन्स, विडम्बनाको, got into boxing at the age of 11 because of Ali. “I saw Ali vs. (जो) Frazierand just felt as though Ali and I had the same mental concept on life,” Jones explained.

 

 

 

Jones went on to become one of the best amateur boxers in the world, compiling a reported 121-13 रेकर्ड, including gold medal performances at the 1984 National Junior Olympics and 1986 & 1987 National Golden Gloves Tournaments.

 

 

 

मा 1988 Olympics in Seoul, दक्षिण कोरिया, Jones reached the championship final of the light middleweight division against Park Si-Hun, of South Korea. Jones suffered arguably the worst decision in boxing history, losing 3-2, despite outpunching his opponent, 86 गर्न 32 landed punches, and he was forced to settle for a silver medal. Even his opponent admitted that Jones won their fight, leading the AIBA to later suspend the three judges who selected the hometown fighter as the winner.

 

 

 

How disgraceful was this decision? Jones was selected as the Val Barker Trophy winner as the best boxer of the 1988 Olympics and, due to controversy, the scoring system for Olympic boxing was changed, replacing the 20-point must system with electronic scoring.

 

 

 

I was angered,” Jones admitted, “yet promoted to prove that I was the best fighter there, and in the world, at that time.

 

 

 

Jones made his professional debut May 6, 1989, at home in Pensacola, फ्लोरिडा, in a scheduled eight-round bout, in which RJJ stopped Ricky Randall दोस्रो चरणको मा. His long, glorious journey has produced a remarkable 66-9 (47 KOS) pro record, highlighted by nine major world titles in four different weight classes.

 

 

 

मा 2003, Jones defeated यूहन्ना Ruiz by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the first former world middleweight champion to become world heavyweight title holder in more than a century.

 

 

 

The possessor of exceptional hand and foot speed, athleticism, movement and reflexes, Jones went undefeated through his first 34 समर्थक झगडे, 22-3 (14) संसारमा शीर्षक झगडे मा. Against former, present or future world champions, Jones was 19-9 (8 KOS) and included among his victims were greats such as बर्नार्ड Hopkins, जेम्स Toney, माइक McCallum,Vinnie Pazienza, Virgil हिल, Antonio Tarverफेलिक्स त्रिनिदाद.

 

 

 

आज, the 49-year-old Jones, technically speaking, is still an active fighter. He also has two promotional companies and gyms, located in Pensacola and Las Vegas, trains several pro boxers and serves as a color commentator for HBO Boxing. He recently opened gyms in South Africa.

 

 

 

For the past two years, Jones has hosted theFuture Stars of Boxing Tournament” लास भेगास, showcasing some of the best amateur boxers in the world.

 

 

 

Hosting the tournament in Las Vegas gives me the opportunity to give back to amateur boxing,” Jones explained. “It’s a great experience for the boxers and it reminds them that who they may have or still look up to, are watching them as well.

His spectacular talent, dedication to his craft, and infectious personality make him a no-brainer to headline this year’s Hall of Fame class. He continues to give back to amateur boxing and support the next generation. Roy deserves to be celebrated for all he has accomplished, and we look forward to honoring him in December.

Montell ग्रिफिन: “फ्लोइड (Mayweather, जूनियर) was no comparison as far as speed. Roy was much faster.
