Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger successfully transitioned from amateur to pro boxing

 

 

чашмаҳои Колорадо, Муддат. (Июн 13, 2018) — Hall of Fame referee Стив “Double SSmoger, arguably the most recognizable and respected official in boxing history, holds the unique distinction of officiating in more states and countries than any of his peers.

 

 

 

Smoger ranks among the top six all-time, Накунед. 2 Амрикоӣ, in terms of most pro boxing matches officiated (1015), including an incredible 220 world time matches. He has been a referee in some of the greatest boxing matches everVernon Forrest-Shane Mosley, Bernard Forrest-Felix Trinidad, Kelly Pavlik-Jermain Taylor, Рой Jones, Jr.-Hopkins, Micky Ward-Emanuel Burton, Andre Ward-Carl Froch and Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito II among the most notable.

 

 

 

Ҳамчунин, Smoger has refereed matches featuring a Who’s Who of Boxing: Майк Тайсон, Лалгандж Люис, Larry Холмс, Эвандер Холифилд. Роберто Гильермо, Hector Camacho Sr., Яъқуб Toney, Майк McCallum, Vinny Paz, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Артуро Гатти, Феликс Тринидад, Диего Corrales, Геннадий Golovkin, Lucia Rijker, Christy Martin and so many others..

 

 

 

In addition to the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Smoger has also been inducted into four other Hall of Fames in New Jersey, Пенсилвания, Philadelphia and Atlantic City.

 

 

 

As a youngster, Smoger got hooked on boxing, primarily because his father was anawesome fan”, who religiously watched the popular Friday night boxing series, Gillette Cavalcade of Sports, with his son. Steve’s father told him that boxing was the last version of will and skill, one-on-one, to determine the better man that night.

 

 

 

Smoger said he was too small to play football, too short for basketball, so he became a cross-country runner in high school. A friend invited Smoger to the local YMCA in New Jersey to get checkout its boxing program. Only one day working with a pro boxer was enough for Steve to realize that being a boxer wasn’t for him. But he still loved boxing.

 

 

 

After he started refereeing amateur matches in southern New Jersey and Delaware, Smoger got the break of his life that dramatically changed his life. “Everything in life is timing,” Smoger explained. “The gentleman who gave George Foreman the small American that he proudly waved after winning a gold medal at the 1968 Олимпиадаи, Pat Duffy, opened a gym in southern Jersey. I told him that I wanted to train as a referee. I trained under the great Frank Cappuccino and then had to honor to train with Zach Clayton. He trained to music so referees moved without being herky-jerky. Дар 1978, I started officiating then-AAU boxing and worked out of the Atlantic City PAL gym, which remains a vibrant amateur boxing club. I’m still there 40 years later, serving on its Board of Directors, and I’m also its legal counsel.

 

 

 

“Баъд, the boxing gods shined on me. Casinos were coming to Atlantic City in 1978 and boxing was involved at all the casinos there. I was the district attorney in Atlantic City, so after work I went to the PAL gym to workout with the kids. Як рӯз, the phone rang in the gym. Nobody else was there, so I answered. It was the New Jersey Boxing Commissioner, ‘JerseyJoe Walcott, who asked me who was in charge. I said that, дар ҳамин вақт, I was in charge. He said there was a pro show that night and they were short of inspectors. He said that they need somebody to watch the hand wrapping. I told him I was well versed in hand wrapping and that was it, I was hired to work that show and they gave me the royal treatment.

 

 

 

Walcott’s chief second was Chief Roy Johnson, who Walcott brought into the state commission. He hired me in 1982 as a probationary referee. Баъд аз ду сол, I was a licensed referee and, Ҳамчунон, ки мегӯянд, the rest is history.

 

 

 

Имрӯз, Smoger is still a very active referee, traveling around the world to officiate, as well as co-chairman of the International Boxing Association (IBA) officials, and a valued USA Boxing Alumni Association advisor. Steve has made several appearances at Alumni Association gatherings across the country.

 

 

 

I am honored to be the ‘unofficialrepresentative of all officials who’ve made the transition from amateur to pro boxing,” Smoger commented. “I’m the only active referee (Alumni Association advisor) who made the transition from the amateur to the pro level.

 

 

 

The accent has always been No. 1, on boxers, ва Не. 2, мураббиён. USA Boxing is the best group I’ve ever been associated with and, for me personally, I’ve seen what amateur boxing does for kids in this country. They learn under difficult circumstances, through boxing, to successfully reach different levels in life. I enjoy watching the development of youths who go through the USA Boxing program and do very well.

 

 

 

Boxing enables boxers. My accent is on youths, to watch them grow and develop, not turn pro, to better their lives.

I think this is great,” Jones talked about the formation of the USA Boxing Alumni Association. “Fighters who turned pro were great amateurs, but there are also a lot of amateurs who didn’t turn pro.

Энтони “The Magic Man” Tarver Credits USA Boxing for giving him Structure that carried him to top

чашмаҳои Колорадо, Муддат. (Май 21, 2018) – Future Hall of Famer Энтони “The Magic Man” Тарвер (31-6-1, 1 NC, 22 KOs) has just about done it all as a boxer having been an Olympic medal winner and world champion as an amateur, along with capturing five major light heavyweight world titles as a professional, as well as a pair of The Ринг magazine’s top honors, and four other world championships in two different divisions.
I credit USA Boxing for giving me structure for the first time in my life,” Тарвер фаҳмонд,. “Everything was scheduled; curfew, eating, омӯзиш, sleep….ҳама! I then understood that I had to be accountable for everything I did. I had talent, but I wasn’t structured, and that was bigger than me. I had to adjust to authority. My determination took off, giving me support I never had before. I went on to make speaking engagements and get sponsors. I broke barriers. I’ve been the best at every level that I fought at in the world.
Tarver was a highly decorated amateur who had an amazing 158-12 рекорд. He is the only boxer to capture gold medals at World Amateur Championships, U.S. National Championships and Pan-American Games in the same year (1995). The Orlando, Florida-born southpaw won a bronze medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, losing in the quarterfinals to future world champion Vassiliy Jirov, who Tarver had defeated in the semifinals of the 1995 World Amateur Championships. Tarver also won top honors at the 1994 National Golden Gloves Tournament and 1995 World Championships Challenge.
I went on a winning roll in 1995 and went into the Olympics in rare form,” Тарвер гуфт:. “And that’s why I was favored to win a gold medal. I was hitting him (Jirov), the same guy I’d beaten in the World Championships, but no points were registering for me. I had a good second round, but I was down three points, so I threw my game plan away in the third round. I felt I had to do more and got away from my style: counter punching, not getting hit, and being patient. I thought I had won and so did a lot of people. I made up for that, ҳатто, with a gold-medal professional career.
I had been faced with a decision about going pro after I was beaten in the ’92 Olympic Trials. I decided to stay in the amateurs, despite not having any guarantees about making the 1996 U.S. Дастаи олимпии. I sacrificed four years of my pro career, which is why I turned pro at a relatively late age (27). I was determined when I found out the 1996 Olympics were in Atlanta. I think I made the right decision and I have no regrets.
I had always dreamed of going to the Olympics. I saw Roy Jones, Jr – we first fought each other at 13 – get robbed of gold. I was watching that on television, jumped up, and knew where I was heading: The Olympics! We both suffered horrible decisions in the Olympics and I knew then that our careers would be parallel.
Tarver made his pro debut February 18, 1997 дар Филоделфия, манъ Joaquin Garcia (4-0) дар даври дуввум.
I was an Olympic bronze medal winner but when I first turned pro,” Tarver added, “I didn’t have a promoter or manager. Nobody was willing to take a chance on me until I was 4-0, when I signed by first contract with Russell Peltz. I felt nobody could beat me.
Nobody was able to beat Tarver, at least until his 17уми pro fight, кай Эрик Hardingdefeated Tarver by way of a 12-round unanimous decision.
Баъд аз ду сол, Tarver embarked on a 12-fight murderer’s row stretch during the next seven years, arguably establishing him as the No. 1 фунт-барои-минои муборизи ҷаҳон. It all started with a successful rematch with Harding (21-1-1) in Indianapolis, when Tarver dropped Harding in the fourth round, plus twice more in the fifth, on his way to a fifth-round technical knockout to avenge his lone pro loss to that date.

Next up for Tarver was a showdown with 44-3 Montell Грифин for the WBC and IBF 175-pound division titles, which were vacated by Рой Ҷонс Jr., Апрел 26, 2003 Дар Foxwoods Resort Казино дар Mashantucket, Коннектикут. In his first world title shot as a pro, Tarver pitched a complete shutout, decking Griffin in the first and last rounds to shut out his opponent by scores of 120-103 from all three judges.
Баъд аз ҳафт моҳ, Аммо, Tarver lost a controversial 12-round majority decision and his WBC crown (he was stripped of his IBF belt) to WBA Super and IBO champion Jones in Las Vegas. The following May at the venue, Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, ҳатто, Tarver became the first to knockout Jones, putting him to sleep in the second round.
Tarver then became a mainstream celebrity, appearing on late-night shows and covers ofThe Ринг magazine and KO Magazine, and co-hosting an ESPN Ҷумъа Задухурдҳо Night telecast.
I was robbed in my first fight with Roy,” Tarver insisted. “They called my knockout of Roy the greatest upset in light heavyweight history. Why didn’t they see me coming? I had beaten everybody ranked ahead of me. Roy was the pound-4-pound king, but he knew. I may not be the fastest, the quickest, or the strongest, but I doubt that there’s ever been a pro fighter to enter the ring with a higher IQ than me. Even at my age, I still feel that way today.
The WBC stripped Tarver of his title in 2004 for fighting IBF champion Глен Ҷонсон (41-9-2) instead of the WBC mandatory challenger. Ҷонсон, Тааҷубовар, was stripped of his IBF title for the same reason right before his fight in Los Angeles with Tarver. Tarver and Johnson fought for The Ринг and IBO titles and Johnson won a 12-round split decision.
In their rematch six months later Дар Мемфис, Tarver won a unanimous 12-round decision over Johnson to capture the IBO strap. Tarver completed his trilogy with Jones, retaining his IBO title with a unanimous 12-round decision (117-111, 116-112, 116-112).
Tarver lost a 12-round decision June 10, 2006 in Atlantic City to Бернард Хопкинс for the IBO championship, which was soon vacated and recaptured by Tarver with a 12-round majority decision over Elvir Muriqi (34-3).
Tarver traveled to Australia in 2011 to challenge IBO cruiserweight champion and local hero Danny Green, who retired after nine rounds, as Tarver added another title belt to his display case.
Дар моҳи декабри соли 2013 in Temecula, Калифорния, Tarver knocked out Jonathon Banks (29-2-1) in the seventh round, and Tarver’s last fight was a 12-round split decision draw with former world champion Стив Каннингэм (28-7) дар Неюарк, Ню Ҷерсӣ.
Дар 2006, Tarver starred as MasonThe LineDixon, the heavyweight champion in the film,Rocky Балбоа.
Тарвер, as he marches towards his planned history-making performance by becoming the oldest heavyweight world champion of all-time, also has served as a color commentator in boxing for Spike TV and Showtime.
Имрӯз, дар синни 49, Tarver is still technically active, and he also trains his son and undefeated middleweight prospect, Антонио Тарвер, Jr. (5-0 (4 KOs), where they live in Tampa, Флорида.
I was older than the rest of the boxers on the U.S. Olympic Team and the U.S. National Team,” Тарвер қайд намуд. “What a team! Guys like Диего Corrales ва Zab Яҳудо didn’t make that Olympic Team. I gave Душкино Mayweather, Jr. his first moniker, ‘Pretty Boy Floyd’, until he changed it years later to ‘Money’. We had a bond on that Olympic team with Floyd, Фернандо Варгас, David Reid, Zarim Raheem and the others.
Although at the age of 49 he is still an active fighter, Tarver occassionally does some color commentating and he trains pro and amateur boxers at a gym in Tampa, Флорида. “I’m not retired as a fighter,” Tarver commented. “I started a program, ‘Train with The Champ’, and it includes room rent and training. I like to say it’s an AirB&B for boxing. I train my son (5-0 middleweight Антонио Тарвер, Jr. он ҷо. I learned a lot from my early days, training in Orlando with my coach, Lou Harris, and I reunited with Jimmy Williams, шахсиятҳо 90 ҳозир, training my son together in Tampa.
Tarver also is an advocate of the relatively newUSA Boxing Alumni Association,” which was created to champion a lifelong, mutually beneficial relations between USA Boxing and its alumni, –боксчиёни, officials, coaches and boxing fansthe Alumni Association connects generations of champions, inspiring and giving back to USA Boxing’s future boxing champions, дар дохил ва хориҷ аз ҳалқаи.
I’m going online to join,” Тарвер гуфт:. “I’m looking forward to attending an Alumni Association meeting, Июн 24-30 during the Junior Olympics in Charleston, Вирҷиния Ғарб.
Everything that goes around, меояд, дар атрофи, in USA Boxing. Just ask future Hall of Fame candidate Antonio Tarver.
