1988 Olympic gold medalist “Merciless” Ray Mercer Looks back at his Olympic experience

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (二月 11, 2020) – Thirty-two years after he captured an Olympic gold medal“Merciless” Ray Mercer fondly remembers his Olympic experience like it was last month. Mercer, who is the only American heavyweight champion to knock out all of his Olympic opponents, went on to become world heavyweight champion as a professional for our “heavyweight double.”

For Mercer, it all started in Germany, where his U.S. Army unit was based. Offered a chance to avoid a 30-day field exercise, Mercer accepted an offer to serve as a sparring partner for the post’s heavyweight boxing champion. Despite never having put on a pair of gloves before, Mercer was a quick learner who was naturally strong, and he rapidly developed into the 1985 中美. Army and Inter-service heavyweight champion.

The World Class Athlete Program (WCAP), 其中合格的運動員有機會培養全日制奧運會, didn’t exist back then, nor the Olympic qualifier rules of today. Mercer defeated future world heavyweight champion湯米·莫里森 in the opening round of the 1988 Olympic Trials and another future world heavyweight titlist邁克爾·本特 (5-0) in the championship final. At the 1988 USA Olympic Box-offs at famed Caesars Pala

ce in Las Vegas, Mercer won a split decision (3-2) over Bentt, but Mercer had already qualified to fight in the Olympic Games by being the U.S. Armed Forces champion.

“When I was in the Army, I had to win in the service, maintain things, and go to the next step,” Mercer remembered. “I had to beat some good fighters on my way to the Olympics, and I was in the best shape of my life. There was more discipline in the amateurs than the professional ranks. The final year before the Olympics, I left my home unit, traveled a lot to fight, and stayed in my trainer’s house instead of living in the barracks.

Mercer made history at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, 韓國, when he became and remains the only Olympic heavyweight champion from the United States to knockout all four of his opponents:  Rudolf Gavenciak (Czechoslovakia – RSC3), Luigi Gaudiano(Italy – KO1), Arnond Vasnderlyde (Netherlands – RSC2) 和Baik Hyun-Man (South Korean – KO1).

“I knew I had to knockout the South Korean in the final,” Mercer admitted. “I just wanted to do what I could to be the Olympic gold medalist. I don’t think I used a jab.

“Winning the Olympic gold medal resulted in some big-time changes for me. I became a celebrity, a household name, and it allowed me to make money as a professional. The best thing that ever happened to me was winning the Olympic gold medal, even more than winning the world title as a pro. Nothing compared to becoming an Olympic gold medalist. I accomplished my dream. I had never dreamed of going pro, until after I won the gold medal.

“It was really important to win that gold medal. I fought with my heart; no money was involved, celebrated so hard that night (after winning the gold medal) that I lost my medal for a few hours. My dream had come true, my hands were shaking, and I lost my medal. What a night!”

Mercer offers members of the 2020 USA Boxing Olympic Qualification Team one bit of advice, “Keep fighting, follow your dream and take that last step.”

Mercer, who was born in Jacksonville, 佛羅里達, made his much-anticipated pro debut in 1989, 停車Jesse McGhee in the third round of their fight in Atlantic City. “Merciless” won his first 18 親打架, including a ninth-round knockout ofFrancisco Damiani, followed by a successful defense against Morrison, who was stopped in the fifth round.

During his 19-year pro career, Mercer compiled a 36-7-1 (26 科斯) 記錄, defeating four world champions in Damiani, 莫里森, 蒂姆·威瑟斯龐 和Ossie Ocasio.  Five of his eight career losses were to world champions倫諾克斯·劉易斯弗拉基米爾克里琴科,拉里·霍姆斯霍利菲爾德 和香農布里格斯

“Ray represents everything that makes USA Boxing proud,“說克里斯tofflemire, USA Boxing Alumni Association Director. “As an Army veteran, 奧運金牌得主, and heavyweight champion of the world, he has demonstrated excellence and professionalism that reflects the best of what USA Boxing has to offer.”

Mercer’s outstanding amateur boxing career also included a classic match-up against Cuban great and three-time Olympic gold medalist費利克斯·薩翁, at USA vs. Cuba dual match, in which Mercer twice staggered Savon, who survived without suffering additional damage only because the Cuban referee made a questionable intervention that gave his fellow countryman time to recover and a controversial 2-1 勝利.

“And he gave me a standing eight-count for no reason,” Mercer added. “I beat that guy and he knows it. We’re still in touch even though he doesn’t speak English. He has a friend translate and we’re in touch on Facebook. We like each other.”

今天, Mercer is founding a charity at home in North Carolina, which will include free boxing clinics, 但, 更重要的是, give back to the community and teach youths, especially those who are bullied, the skills they’ll need to go out into the real world.

Ray Mercer has reached the zenith twice in boxing as an Olympic gold medalist and world heavyweight champion as a professional. Not too shabby for somebody who never really wanted to box.

“Boxing saved my life,” Mercer concluded. “I can’t imagine my life without boxing, it certainly wouldn’t be the same.

The GOAT boxing trainer….. 伊曼紐爾管家

美國拳擊校友會, 等級 2018 Inductee
(L-R) – The great Tommy Hearns & the late Manny Steward

科羅拉多斯普林斯, 膝部. (十一月 19, 2018) – The late 伊曼紐爾管家, 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, 十二月 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

在年齡 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. 作為一名業餘拳擊手, he compiled a 94-3 記錄, 由金牌的表現在突出 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.

 

 

 

在 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 世界冠軍, 也許, the most noteworthy were 托馬斯·赫恩斯, 倫諾克斯·劉易斯弗拉基米爾克里琴科. He also trained 塞薩爾查韋斯, 米格爾·庫托, 霍亞, 納西姆·哈米德, 霍利菲爾德, 和 邁克·麥卡勒姆. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.

 

 

 

The last world champion Manny trained was 阿多尼斯 “超人” 史蒂文森, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.

 

 

 

Emanuel would always say, 擊倒賣!” 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,” 說 克里斯tofflemire, 美國拳擊校友會執行董事. “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 約翰· 褐色 額外. “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.

 

 

 

簡而言之, 雖然, he taught boxing, and nobody has ever done it any better.

Maurice Hooker Scores Split-Decision Upset Victory Over Terry Flanagan For WBO 140-Pound World Championship Belt

LOS ANGELES (六月 9, 2018) – Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury scored a fourth-round TKO over Sefer Seferi at Manchester Arena in Manchester, 英國, on Saturday in a bout that was streamed live to U.S. audiences via SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

 

 

The 6-foot-9, 275-plus pound Fury, who outweighed Seferi by more than 65 pounds following Friday’s weigh-in, looked rusty in the scheduled 10-rounder, his first bout in more than 31 個月. Seferi sat on his stool after four completed rounds and did not answer the bell for round five.

 

 

 

憤怒 (26-0, 19 科斯) playfully bounced around for the first few rounds, and was even warned for a lack of activity in the second round against a severely undermanned Seferi (23-2, 21 科斯). Fury is likely to face a tougher opponent in his next fight set for September in a division currently ruled by world title holders Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

Fury’s return to the ring came after 924 days of inactivity due to bouts of depression and admitted drug use following an upset victory over Wladimir Klitschko to take Klitschko’s WBA, IBF and WBO world titles.

 

 

 

In a fight that preceded Fury-Seferi, undefeated American Maurice Hooker won a split-decision upset victory over hometown favorite Terry Flanagan to capture the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight World Championship belt. 該得分 117-111, 115-113 for Hooker, 和 117-111 for Flanagan.

 

 

 

With blood streaming down his face, the former lightweight title holder Flanagan (33-1, 13 科斯), who suffered a deep cut on the forehead after an accidental head butt in the seventh round, couldn’t overcome the aggressive Hooker (24-0-3, 16 科斯), who just like training partner Errol Spence Jr., had to travel overseas to win his first world title.

 

 

 

Hooker, a 28-years-old Dallas native, was fighting for the first time outside of the United States against Flanagan, who was a 135-pound champion for three years with five defenses before moving up to the 140-pound class.

 

 

 

憑藉這場勝利, Hooker became the 76 的ShoBox: 新一代 alum to win a world title, joining the likes of Spence and Wilder.

 

 

 

Boxing broadcaster Ray Flores and analyst Chris Mannix delivered pre and post-fight analysis from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

 

 

 

Later on Saturday night, WBA Super Featherweight World Champion 獅子座聖克魯斯 will rematch former three-division world champion 押尼珥Mares精彩表演拳擊錦標賽® (10 P.M. ET/PT delayed on the West Coast) from Staples Center in Los Angeles. 在轉播揭幕戰, Houston’s Jermell夏洛茨維爾 will defend his WBC Super Welterweight World Title against former world champion 奧斯汀鱒魚.

曼徹斯特, 英國 (六月 6, 2018) – Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury took one more step toward ending his 31-month exile from the sport as he met face-to-face with Sefer Seferi at the final press conference Wednesday at the Midland Hotel in Manchester.

AND/1:30 P.M. PT.

 

Here’s what Fury had to say on Wednesday:

 

If he has knocked out 21 men before, if he gets it on my chin he will knock me out too.

 

I look at Sefer like I look at Wladimir Klitschko, Deontay懷爾德, Anthony Joshua, anybody. He’s a dangerous puncher.

 

I could have picked someone a lot easier than Sefer; someone to knock out in a round. But I need rounds.”

 

On his Heavyweight rivals:They know the message – I’m back. I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now.

 

I feel sharper now, more power. I fell out of love with the game but now the love is thriving, we are back on fire for one another.

 

You’re going to be the best Tyson Fury you have ever seen.”

 

There are no nerves at all. I feel like I have been a goldfish in a tank, trapped and now I am getting released back into the river where I belong. So just put me there and watch me swim.

 

“I don’t ever remember feeling any better than I do now. I feel shaper now, faster than I’ve ever been, more power, I just want it more.

 

“It was a lost relationship, it was like I was married to the game too long and we sort of fell out of love with each other.”

 

In the opening bout of the live stream, 當地的英雄 特里·弗拉納根(Terry Flanagan) (33-0, 13 KO的) will look to become a two-division world champion when he clashes with unbeaten American 莫里斯·胡克(Maurice Hooker) (23-0-3, 16 KO的) for the vacant WBO Super Lightweight crown.

埃德蒙頓, 加拿大 (六月 5, 2018)Canadian boxing fans will have the opportunity to watch the long-awaited return of the“吉普賽國王,undefeated former unified heavyweight world champion 泰森怒 這個星期六 針對 Sefer “真正的交易” 遠征 在10輪的主要事件, airing in Canada exclusively on Super Channel, live from Manchester Arena in Manchester, 英國.
他回來: 憤怒vs. 遠征, presented by Frank Warren’s Queensbury Promotions, will air exclusively on Super Channel across Canada, 開始 2:00 P.M. AND / 11:00 A.M. PT.
We couldn’t be more excited to be bringing this highly anticipated bout marking the return of Tyson Fury to the boxing world, to our viewers,” said Don McDonald, 總裁兼首席執行官, 超級通道. “This is exactly the type of exclusive content that Canadian boxing fans have come to expect from Super Channel Sports and is a welcome addition to our growing catalogue of marquee boxing events.
Perhaps boxing’s most polarizing figure, 憤怒 (25-0, 15 科斯) has been sidelined with mental health issues for the past 2 年半, after shocking the boxing world November 28, 2015, when he defeated future Hall of Famer 弗拉基米爾克里琴科 (64-3, 53 科斯) 通過10輪的一致決定的方式 (116-111, 115-112, 115-112).
6′ 9″ Fury became the undisputed world heavyweight champion, securing the IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO and 午夜凶鈴 冠軍, only to be stripped and/or relinquish his title belts without a single defense.
(L-R) – 在他的最後一戰, Tyson Fury upset Wladimir Klitschko
Canadian boxing fans are more than familiar with Fury, who held his extended training camp in Canada, at Hotel Lac Leamy in Gatineau, prior to his April 20, 2013 fight at famed Madison Square Garden in New York City, in which he stopped multiple world champion 史蒂夫·坎寧安 在第七輪.
I can’t wait to get in there and prove that I’m a better fighter than I’ve ever been,” the charismatic Fury said. “I’m coming into the prime of my career now and I’ve never felt better. I’m fitter, stronger and faster than the Fury of 2015.
It’s going to be a huge night for the City of Manchester (where Fury was born). I’m delighted to be fighting at the iconic Manchester Arena for the first time in my career. I’m promising the fans a special performance to thank them for their loyal support.
遠征, fighting out of Albania, has suffered only one loss during his otherwise perfect 11-year pro boxing career, losing a 10-round decision in 2016 to future WBA heavyweight world champion Manuel Charr (29-4) for the vacant WBA International crown.
This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” Seferi predicted. “I’m very disciplined and always ready to take on everyone and anyone. This will not be an easy night for him. I’m coming to Manchester to beat one of the boxing legends of the 21ST century.
He is tall and strong, but he won’t be ready for the pressure that I will bring. Two-and-one-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko. I am going to seize the opportunity with both hands.
The 12-round co-feature features local hero, undefeated Brit 特里 “渦輪” Flanagan (33-0, 13 科斯), in his bid to become a two-division world champion, versus unbeaten American 莫里斯 “浩浩蕩盪莫” Hooker (23-0-3, 16 科斯) for the vacant WBO super-lightweight world title.

Fury To Face Sefer Seferi; Terry Flanagan To Face Maurice Hooker For Vacant 140-Pound World Title

星期六, 六月 9 Live on SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel and SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook Page

 

紐約 (六月 4, 2018) – SHOWTIME Sports has secured the U.S. rights to stream the long-awaited return of former heavyweight world champion 泰森怒, 誰將會面臨 Sefer Seferi in a 10-round heavyweight bout Saturday, 六月 9 from Manchester Arena. 欣欣拳擊INTERNATIONAL® will stream live exclusively to U.S. audiences on the SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook page and SHOWTIME Sports YouTube Channel beginning at 4:30 P.M. AND/1:30 P.M. PT.

 

 

 

在開幕回合, 當地的英雄 特里·弗拉納根(Terry Flanagan) (33-0, 13 KO的) will look to become a two-division world champion when he clashes with unbeaten American 莫里斯·胡克(Maurice Hooker) (23-0-3, 16 KO的) for the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight crown. This will be the fourth live streaming boxing event this year on SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

 

 

Live coverage for the Frank Warren promoted event will be provided by BT Sport and BoxNation with U.K. sportscasters John Rawling providing the blow-by-blow and Richie Woodhall the analysis. Boxing broadcaster 雷弗洛雷斯 與分析師 Chris Mannix will deliver pre-fight and post-fight analysis from Staples Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

 

 

 

The live stream of Fury vs. Seferi will precede that evening’s SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® doubleheader that features WBA Featherweight World Champion Leo Santa Cruz in a rematch against fellow three-division world champion Abner Mares live on SHOWTIME (10 P.M. ET / PT, delayed in the West Coast) from Staples Center. 在共同特徵, Jermell Charlo will face Austin Trout for the WBC Super Welterweight World Championship.

 

 

 

憤怒 (25-0, 18 科斯), a former WBA, WBO and IBF Heavyweight World Champion will end a two-years-and-seven-months exile from the sport on June 9. Fury has been inactive since outpointing 弗拉基米爾克里琴科 in Dusseldorf in November 2015 due to an injury, personal problems and a doping ban.

 

 

 

“I’m the fittest I’ve ever been,” said Fury, who has teamed up with new trainer Ben Davison. “Timing, reflexes, everything is better than it’s ever been. I kid you not. 我 29 歲, coming into the prime of my life, I’m stronger and faster, holding more muscle mass than ever. I’m more confident looking at the competition.”

 

 

 

Albania’s Seferi (23-1, 21 科斯) is a 39-year-old Switzerland-based cruiserweight who is stepping up in weight and opposition when he faces the 6-foot-9 Fury. Seferi’s sole loss came in 2016 in a heavyweight bout against now-secondary WBA heavyweight champ Manuel Charr.

 

 

 

“This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” said Seferi. “Two-and-a-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko.”

 

 

 

Flanagan, the first Englishman to earn a lightweight world title, will seek to capture a title in a second weight class just days away from his 29 生日. Hooker, a southpaw from Dallas, Texas and 的ShoBox alum, has been training with 特倫斯·克勞福德. Hooker will look to follow in the footsteps of fellow Dallas resident 埃羅爾·斯彭斯JR., who went to Kell Brook’s hometown of Sheffield, England to capture his first world championship.

名人堂級的康涅狄格州拳擊名人堂 2017 Induction caps Judging career of Clark Sammartino

十月. 28 在金神大賭場

Clark Sammartino

安卡斯維爾, 康涅狄格州. (十月 19, 2017, 2017) – His induction into the Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame (CBHOF) 週六 夜晚, 十月 28, as part of the six-member Class of 2017, will cap the boxing career of retiring judge Clark Sammartino 在 13TH 每年CBHOF晚會感應晚宴在昂卡斯宴會廳金神大賭場.
The other new CBHOF inductees are pioneer boxerProfessorCharles Hadley, ring physician 博士. Tony Alessi, referee/judge Dick Flaherty, 拳擊作家 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 喬伊安傑洛 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 星期一 Night Fights at Rhode Island Auditorium and I remember watching Rocky Marciano fight “虎” 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 親打架, 含 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 歲月: 邁克·泰森, 霍亞, 霍利菲爾德, 塞薩爾查韋斯, 約翰尼塔皮亞, 納西姆·哈米德, 克里斯·尤班克, 馬爾科·安東尼奧·巴雷拉, 馬克約翰遜, 韋恩·麥卡洛, 弗拉基米爾克里琴科, 根納季·戈洛夫金, Anthony Joshua, 謝爾蓋·科瓦廖夫, 伯納德·霍普金斯大學, 胡安·曼努埃爾·洛佩斯, nonito Donaire主場, Acelino弗雷塔斯, 伊万·卡爾德隆, 費利克斯·特立尼達, 湯米·莫里森 and many more.
Sammartino, who proudly says he never missed a day of work in 40 歲月, has decided to retire, although he’ll remain a boxing fans for the rest of his life. “I started slowing down at my age, doing local shows and maybe three or four world title fights a year, mostly WBO and IBF,” Sammartino remarked. “I had a tough bout with pneumonia the past 5-6 months and that made working difficult.
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,” 他說. “This is a great way to end my career.

FNU搏擊運動展: UFC 214 分解, Nobody Likes Dana White, Tom and Tony break down Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. 馬里亞加

This week’s combat sports show is a split personality situation. We had technical difficulties getting all of us together for the show, so we recorded Tom and Tony chatting with each other on Thursday night. I’ve added my portion today. It all worked out to some incredible insight about Mayweather vs. 麥格雷戈, Dana White’s growing problem with disgruntled stars in the UFC, Broner VS. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. 馬里亞加. We also break down Jon Jones beating Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 and the implications for a Brock Lesnar showdown in the Octagon. It’s far from likely, but it’s intriguing. We also touch on the retirements of Juan Manuel Marquez and Wladimir Klitschko.
