Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο
KANSAS CITY, Μάιος. (Ιούλιος 29, 2025) - Nineteen-year-old boxing phenom Marco “El Tiburón” Romero (9-0, 8 KOs) will make his hometown debut as a professional on September 6, headlining “The Homecoming” Pro-Am card, presented by Turner Boxing Academy, at Embassy Suites Hotel & Conference Center in Olathe, Kansas.“The Homecoming” is a fundraiser for the Turner Boxing Academy, owned and operated by boxing legend Τζον Μπράουν, in Kansas City, Κάνσας. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Safe Kids Johnson County. “This will be a special event celebrating the 20ου anniversary of the Turner Boxing Academy,” explained Turner, who is Romero’s manager/head trainer. It’s a tough homecoming fight for Marco.”

The primary sponsor of this event is McCarthy Auto Group. “I’m elated to support the Turner Boxing Academy’s 20th anniversary event,” McCarthy Auto Group founder and owner John McCarthy σχολίασε. “This is clearly a reputable organization and non-profit. I’ve been impressed with Marco Romero and recognize how pivotal early support can be in shaping a career.”
Romero was a 23-time national amateur champion, highlighted by gold medal performances in the 2024 USA National Championships and National Golden Gloves Tournament, for which he was selected as the “Golden Boy” Award winner as the Most Outstanding Boxer.

He is matched against Javier Dario Aragon (7-1-1, 3 KOs), fighting out of Denver by way of Mexico, in the 8-round main event.

“Fighting at home means so much to me,” Romero said about fighting in Olathe. “It’s giving me that extra motivation and drive to work hard every single day in the gym. I’m ready to give my people from KC and Olathe a show.”
Ρομέρο, currently a promotional free agent, has needed only 17 rounds in his 9 επαγγελματικές περιόδους, registering 8 στάσεις, including his last six fights in a row. He is set to compete as a middleweight for the first time after previously fighting at super middleweight, his sixth fight in 2025.

“Going down to middleweight has always been the plan,” Romero noted. “My dream is to be a multi-world champion in different weight classes. I’m excited to see how I feel going to middleweight and see how I feel after this fight. Our plan is to go even lower in weight to super welterweight.

“I’m ready and excited to fight 8-rounds. Our opposition will be tougher – we know that – so we are preparing for a hard fought 8-rounder or finish it earlier Either way we are coming Shark Style!"

Proud of his Mexican American heritage, Marco’s boxing idols are Σαούλ "Κανέλο" Αλβαρέζ, Julio Cesar Chavez και, φυσικά, his namesake, Marco Antonio Barrera. Romero’s ultimate goal is to bring world championship boxing back to Kansas, in order to give back to his community and inspire other young and upcoming boxers from Kansas City, not necessarily just in boxing, but any sport. His ultimate goal is to fill up Arrowhead Stadium one day, either fighting for a world title, or defending his world title belt.

In the 10-round co-featured event, Topeka (KS) βαρέων βαρών John “Iron Man” Cantrell (14-0, 13 KOs) θα αναλάβει Portland “The Prince” Pringle (5-5, 1 KO), who is from Lexington, Kentucky.

The undercard will feature Kansas City’s (KS) popular Davidson brothers, Marcell Davidson (6-0, 4 KOs) Marcus Davidson (6-1, 5 KOs), both fighting as welterweights in separate 4-round fights. Marcell was a 2-time winner of The Ringside World Championships, καθώς και η 2019 Εθνικό Golden Gloves τουρνουά.

Μη. 1 rated WBA Super Flyweight John “Scrappy” Ramirez believes in the process

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

ΛΟΣ ΑΝΤΖΕΛΕΣ (Ιούλιος 2, 2025) -- It’s “Scrappy Time” again!

For the first time in 2025, charismatic super flyweight contenderJohn “Scrappy” Ramirez (15-1, 9 KOs) returned to the ring on last Saturday’s DAZN Pay-Per-View event, presented by MVP Promotions and Golden Boy Promotions, and headlined by YouTuber turned boxerJake “The Problem Child” Paul(12-1, 7 KOs) κατάJulio Cesar Chavez, Jr. (54-7-1, 34 KOs) at Honda Center in Anaheim, Καλιφόρνια.

Σε ένα 8-γύρο, “Scrappy” dominated Houston’sJosue Jesus Morales (33-19-5, 14 KOs), who was a very late replacement forSaleto Henderson (10-2, 7 KOs), enroute to an 8-round unanimous decision (80-72, 80-72, 89-73).

Henderson pulled out of the fight last Wednesday night, Morales accepted the fight Thursday evening after the event’s final press conference.

“I trusted the process,” Ramirez explained. “It was emotional when my original opponent pulled out of the fight so late and I didn’t know if I’d be fighting. I’m happy I got the fight, even if I had to open the show, because I’ve learned to embrace the opportunity. I trained to fight a 5’ 2”, righty and fought a southpaw. I was comfortable, regardless, because I prepare at camp for anything that may happen. I wanted the fight and gave him (Morales) two passes on weight. He was coming in heavy; έτσι, we agreed to fight at a 120-pound catchweight. Before he stepped on the scale, he said he weighed 121.6. I didn’t want him to be fined for coming in overweight because he was doing me a favor by taking the fight. I respect him for taking the fight on late notice and we changed the contract to 121.6. Nothing changed for me other than the opponent and opening the preliminaries. Time is money, and I wanted everything I had done to count like camp (expenses), resources I used, mileage on my body. Everything happens for a reason. There are six months left in 2025, and my goal is to have two more fights.”

The 29-year-old Ramirez is world rated at No. 1 στο WBA, καθώς και αριθ. 12 και αριθ. 15, αντίστοιχα, από το World Boxing Συμβουλίου (WBC) and WBO.Fernando Daniel Martinez (16-0, 9 KOs), της Αργεντινής, is the reigning WBA Super Flyweight World Champion, David Jimenez (17-1, 11 KOs) remains the WBA Interim Champion.

“I’m back where I left off (Μη. 1 κατάταξη),” Ramirez said. “After my last fight I was No. 2, ‘Chocolatito’ (Ρομάν Γκονζάλες) was on top. And before this coming fight, I wanted to go up to No. 1 και στη συνέχεια, a little while ago, I saw that I was back at No. 1. It’s a good feeling to have put myself back where I was. Σε αυτό το σημείο, I have power and leverage. They may want me to fight a rematch with Jimenez, who is still the (WBA) Interim champion but we’ll see how everything plays out. If I get the opportunity to fight ‘Chocolatito’ or ‘Bam’ (WBC world championJessie Rodriguez), I’d do that if it makes sense.”

Fighting out of South Central Los Angeles, “Scrappy” hasn’t fought since last December 14th when he decisioned previously undefeatedEphraim Bui (10-0) από τα αποτελέσματα των 97-93 τρεις φορές. In Ramirez’ previous fight in April of 2024, “Scrappy” had suffered the lone loss of his pro career to Jimenez for the WBA Interim Super Flyweight crown.

“I’m hungry! I feel like I’ve been locked up in a cage. I’m happy to be back to the spot I had before.,” Ramirez continued. ”I’m ignoring distractions and continue to work on my craft and self-discipline. I know my opportunity (world title shot) will come. Even when I didn’t know who my opponent would be or even if I’d fight (αυτό το Σάββατο), I just let that go and kept training hard to keep improving.

“Everything is based on my confidence. Είμαι ακόμα μάθηση στην εργασία. I like to compare it to when I played football, my level of confidence, because I knew what that was all about for me. I’ve gained that same level of experience in the ring, when to or when not to do something that I’ve learned through my experiences. Going back to December 14ου, I was coming off my only loss eight months earlier, and it’s been six months since my last fight. I kept on the right path, and now I have my old football comfort and understanding. People compared me with fighters who’ve fought their whole lives, but I didn’t make my pro debut until December of 2020. I started late (στην πυγμαχία) and I’m still learning and figuring things out.”

Πράγματι, ‘Scrappy’ has been an adaptive learner who resents being called by some as ahyped-up fighter, primarily because of his commitment and sacrifices he’s made to be the all-around fighter he has become.

“I know I have the skills to be world champion,” Ramirez concluded. “I like to fight and prove people wrong. I train to learn how to perform better. I’m in a great spot. I know I need to keep winning and that my opportunity will come. I’m only really thinking about this fight as I glimpse a little into my future.”

It’s “Scrappy Time” again and the dynamic super flyweight is closing in on his world title.

Αφήστε ένα σχόλιο

LAS VEGAS (Μάιος 19, 2021) – Only five boxers have started their professional careers with a 50-fight win streak and the contemporary leader, 41-0 Ο Gilberto "Zurdo" Ραμίρεζ is on a mission to join the exclusive club, continuing July 9ου in Los Angeles againstSullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 KOs). 

Ραμίρεζ, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withOscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, was the first Mexican-born super middleweight World champion, and he is currently the No. 3 rated light heavyweight in the world, από το World Boxing Association (WBA) και της Παγκόσμιας Οργάνωσης εγκιβωτίζοντας (WBO). 

Although he won’t turn 30 until June 19, Ramirez has been fighting professionally for nearly 12 χρόνια, and one of his goals is to become a World champion in two different weight classes. Another is joining his idol and fellow Mexican, Julio Cesar Chavez στην 50-0 Λέσχη, in which he is No. 1 having amazingly won his first 87 pro fights. The first blemish on his pro record was a 12-round majority draw with the greatPernell Whitaker σε 1993 in their WBC World welterweight title fight.

    “Getting to 50-0 is very important, but I’m more interested in being able to fight the fights the fans want,” Ramirez said. “I’ve never turned down a fight and have made it clear to all the fighters I want. I look across the division and none of these fighters are on my level”

    Chavez moved ahead of featherweight iconWill Pepστο 62, Μη. 2 on the contemporary list, compiled in less than three years dating back to the 1940’s. Pep lost for the first time as a pro toSammy Angott by 10-round decision in 1943.

    Another Mexican boxer is in the 50-0 Λέσχη, Μη. 4 Carlos Zarate, who reached 52 straight victories off his pro debut, 51 με νοκ-άουτ, in the 1970’s. Zarate was stopped in his 53RD fight by Puerto Rican starWilfredo Gomez in the fifth round of their 1978 WBC super bantamweight World championship match.

    The only member of the exclusive 50-0 Club to retire undefeated is Floyd “Money” Mayweather, Jr. in fifth place with 50.

    The four inactive boxers in the club – Chavez, Pep, Zarate, and Mayweather – are inducted in the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

    Rocky Marciano καιBrian Nielson (49), Larry Holmes (48), Ρικάρντο Λόπεζ (47), Joe Calzaghe (46-0) καιJim Barry (45) all came close to 50-0 memberships. Lopez (51-0-1) fought a draw in his 48ου pro fight withRosendo Alvarez. 

    Ramirez is closing in on boxing history as he fights for his legacy. Five years after he retires, “Zurdo” should rightfully join the four Hall of Famers who are presently ahead of him on the 50-Club list.

Ένωση Αποφοίτων Πυγμαχίας ΗΠΑ, Τάξη του 2018 Inductee
(L-R) – The great Tommy Hearns & the late Manny Steward

COLORADO SPRINGS, Αγκαλιά. (Νοέμβριος 19, 2018) – The late Emanuel Steward, 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, Δεκέμβριος 2-8, will be held December 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salt Lake City, Γιούτα.

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

Στην ηλικία των 12, Manny moved with his mother from West Virginia to Detroit, where his life soon turned to boxing. Ως ερασιτέχνης μποξέρ, he compiled a 94-3 ρεκόρ, τονίζεται από μια παράσταση χρυσό μετάλλιο στο 1963 National Golden Gloves Tournament as a bantamweight, but he decided against trying out for the US Olympic Boxing Team.

 

 

 

Σε 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 πρωταθλητές κόσμου, ίσως, the most noteworthy were Τόμας Χερνς, Lennox Lewis και Wladimir Klitschko. He also trained Julio Cesar Chavez, Miguel Cotto, Oscar de la Hoya, Naseem Hamed, Evander Holyfield, και Mike McCallum. Manny also trained a young Detroit rapper, Eminem, how to box at Kronk Gym.

 

 

 

The last world champion Manny trained was Αστεροειδής αδώνης “Υπεράνθρωπος” Stevenson, who remains the reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) World light heavyweight champion since 2013.

 

 

 

“Emanuel would always say, knockouts πωλούν!” 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,” είπε Κρις Κούλιαρι, Εκτελεστικός Διευθυντής της Ένωσης Αποφοίτων Πυγμαχίας των ΗΠΑ. “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 Γιάννης Μπράουν προστεθεί. “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.”

ΔΗΛΩΣΕΙΣ & PICTURES FROM THE NYSBHOF INDUCTEES

 


(L-R) – Ron McNair, Jake Rodriguez and Bob Duffy
JAKE RODRIGUEZ: “I want to thank Ring 8 for the opportunity for me to be here. I’d also like to thank my wife for always being there for me, and my trainer.”

(L-R) – Herb Goldman, Don Majeski and Bob Duffy
HERB GOLDMAN: “If I have made any contributions to boxing – I hope I have – I did by redefining record keeping and creating a new perspective on boxing history. I’m proud of that, but I didn’t do it alone.”
(L-R) – Joe Mesi, Jack Hirsch and Bob Duffy
JOE MESI: “I have so many people to thank for this honor. I’m a Buffalonian. There’s nobody more in favor of one New York, but it’s not. This is special for me because it’s the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame. This solidifies me and makes me think I’m not just a local boy. There was a huge disadvantage coming from a small city, sparring wasn’t the same as in the gyms of New York City, but I had an advantage coming from Western New York. Nobody was welling out like we did in Buffalo with 10,000, τότε 16,00 and finally 18,000 άνθρωποι. They were always behind me and I share this with them because their support made me. My dream was to fight in Buffalo and to continue to fight there.
“One of the highlights of my life was fighting Monte Barrett on HBO in Madison Square Garden. He was one of the greatest fighters in the world who fought for the world title. I always wanted to get my world title shot, but I never got it. That’s okay, I was little bitter for a while, but I couldn’t be happier with my career. The best part of boxing is the brotherhood we share.

(L-R) – Randy Gordon, Ron Scott Stevens and Bob Duffy
RON SCOTT STEVENS: “I know people always say it, but this is the truth: I owe so many people who have supported me throughout my career. Boxing has always been home away from home for me and today I feel like I’m home.
“Ήμουν 30, living in Brooklyn Heights, and back driving a taxi a waiting on tables. A light went off in my head: boxing is the sport of the underdog and I’m an underdog. The next day I went to Gleason’s Gym – the center of the universe. I made my way around all the gyms in the city, meeting promoters, managers and trainers. I started making matches for promoters and then Cedric Kushner hired me from 1980-2002. Σε 2002, I got a call to work for the New York State Athletic Commission as its Community Co-Ordinator and Director of Boxing. Τότε, I was made chairman and I served two terms. Σήμερα, I’m extremely proud to be part of the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame.

(L-R) – Bob της Duffy, Henry Hascup, Bob Goodman and Tommy Gallagher
BOB GOODMAN: “I can’t believe this crowd. In order to do what we do, the sacrifices and support you get from your family is so important and (in Goodman’s case) was for so many years. They allowed us to do what we do. All of us love boxing!”

(L-R) – Ray Mercer, Penny Allen, Al Cole, Clay Jenkins and Bob Duffy
AL COLE: “I thought boxing was the stupidest and dumbest sport ever. Who wanted to get punched in the face? I started boxing late. I played around some and people said I was pretty good. I started boxing when I was 20, in the Army, stationed at Ft. Hood. Four years later, I was on the Olympic Team. The reason why is I had a great sparring partner, Ray Mercer. If I was going to be in the ring everyday with Ray, I was either going to get beat up, or get better.
“I remember Bob Arum giving me his business card. I didn’t know him. I only knew of three people in boxing: Don King, Muhammad Ali και Sugar Ray Leonard. I didn’t follow boxing and the only reason I boxed was I would have had to sleep in the woods if I didn’t (in Army). Boxing is: hit him, before he hits me.”

(L-R) – Μπόμπι Cassidy, Jr., Jaime Drubin and Pete Brodsky
PETE BRODSKY: “I want to thank the board. I’m going to be 70 and started in boxing when I was 18. It created a new direction in my life. I’m so proud to be in company with guys who didn’t just talk it, they loved it. If you really love this sport, you really have to learn it. Any man who stepped in the ring, plus all the roadwork, time in the gym and sacrificing what they eat, did it to be the best they can be.
“Στην πυγμαχία, you’re not going to win every fight, but whether a fighter wins or loses, if he gives 100-percent, he’s a winner. They work a job, run five miles day, workout at the gym, and then went home to spend time with his family. Friends and family always have your back.”

(L-R) – Darryl Peoples & Melvina Lathan
MELVINA LATHAM: “I’m speechless. It’s wonderful. Randy (former NYSAC chairperson Gordon), do you remember this story? There were only three judges and, δυστυχώς, one called in sick. I was sitting at ringside with no responsibilities. Randy said I had to workαπόψε. I said that I wasn’t licensed and couldn’t do it. Randy said, ‘Raise your right hand’, and it was on. I was thrown in there, but it was okay.
“My greatest accomplishments are my children and husband. I couldn’t ask for a better situation. Και Ralph Petrillo is part of my family; he was my second in command. I also had the best officials: deputy commissioners, inspectors, judges and referees. I wouldn’t be here with without them. Bob Duffy put this whole thing together. I personally think he’s amazing. My journey continues, I am blessed.”

(L-R) – Bob and Murray Goodman
ΝΕΑ ΥΟΡΚΗ (Μάρτιος 26, 2018) – Boxing lifers Bob Goodman και ο πατέρας του, ο αείμνηστος Murray Goodman, are among 23 members of the Class of 2018 being inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame (NYSBHOF) επί Κυριακή απόγευμα (12:30-5:30 μ.μ. ΚΑΙ), Απρίλιος 29.
The seventh annual NYSBHOF induction dinner will be held once again at Russo’s On The Bay in Howard Beach, New York.
A legendary boxing publicist, Murray Goodman (Μπρονξ) brought his son into the sweet science when Bob was only eight years old. The rest was historic for the Goodmans, who are both inductees in several Halls of Fame, including the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
“This is a great honor for me and my father,” Bob said. “I wish he were alive today to be there. I’m a boxing lifer. I was eight years old going to all the training camps with my father, who was a boxing writer and sports editor for the INS (Hearst News Service) υπηρεσία. The joke is I was conceived at Grossinger’s (Catskill Resort Hotel training camp). Boxing just came into my life. My dad and I had some businesses in promotions and public relations, all different kinds of sports-related businesses, but there was always boxing.
“I’m the luckiest guy in the world. I was brought up doing the very things I loved. How many people can say that? I met and became friends with Joe Louis, Marcel Cerdan, Sugar Ray Robinson, Rocky Graziano, Rocky Marciano and so many others. I’d stay in camps for weeks. I’d get up to run with the boxers and got a chance to be around my heroes. I also got to know trainers and others in boxing and later fans. I got to know everybody. I was brought up in boxing, my whole life was boxing, 65 years in the business.”
Bob is, ίσως, best known as Vice President and Matchmaker for Madison Square Garden (1985-1994), as well as a quarter-century serving as Vice President of Boxing Operations, Matchmaker and Director of Public Relations for Don King Productions. He also promoted many world champions as President of his own company, Garden State Boxing.
“I remember going away to training camps for weeks at a time,” the 78-year-old Goodman fondly remembered. “I’d take pictures, write stories every day and use my telecopier to send them to AP and UPI. I did so much being brought up un the business, even loading trucks up with chairs, το δαχτυλίδι, speakers and more. My father was the Publicity Director for the International Boxing Club at Madison Square Garden. I worked there when I was a teenager.
“I’m honored to be inducted into the New York State Boxing Hall of Fame with my father and so many boxing guys. They’re different from people in any other sports. One of the awards I’ve won that I’m most proud of is the James J. Walker Memorial Award for Long and Meritorious Service to Boxing (BWAA in 1960).
“I’m fortunate to have transcended various eras in boxing. It was a different world back then, we had 20-30 writers stay for weeks at training camps. I got to know old-time boxers and trainers.”

Goodman, who served in the U.S. Coast Guard from 1958-62, stays active today working with veterans’ groups. He is President of the Weymouth Township Veteran’s Advisory Board, and also active with the American Legion and part of the Honor Guard with the Korean War Veterans Association.

Κλαρκ Σαμαρτίνο

Uncasville, Conn. (Οκτώβριος 19, 2017, 2017) – Η εισαγωγή του στο Κονέκτικατ Πυγμαχίας Hall of Fame (CBHOF) Σάββατο νύχτα, Οκτώβριος 28, ως μέρος της εξαμελούς Τάξης των 2017, θα κλείσει την πυγμαχία καριέρα του αποχωρούντος δικαστή Κλαρκ Σαμαρτίνο στο 13Θ ετήσια Δείπνο Gala CBHOF επαγωγής στην Συνδέσμου Ηνωμένων Εθνών Κύπρου Ballroom στο Mohegan Sun.
Οι άλλοι νέοι εισακτέοι του CBHOF είναι πρωτοπόροι μπόξερ “Καθηγητής” Τσαρλς Χάντλεϊ, δαχτυλίδι γιατρός Ο Δρ. Τόνι Αλέσι, διαιτητής/κριτής Ντικ Φλάχερτι, πυγμαχία συγγραφέας Νταν Πάρκερ και πυγμάχος/συνεισφέρων πυγμαχίας Χιου Ντέβλιν, Sr.
Απόφοιτος του Brown University, ο 80χρονος πλέον Sammartino έχει απολαύσει άλλες δύο καριέρες ως στοματοχειρουργός και σύμβουλος επενδύσεων στο Blue Fin in Providence, εκτός από τον ρόλο του ως διεθνής κριτής πυγμαχίας από τότε 1985.
“Πρώτα μπήκα στην πυγμαχία γιατί Joey Angelo παντρεύτηκε την ξαδέρφη μου,” εξήγησε ο Sammartino. “Πολέμησε πίσω στις αρχές της δεκαετίας του σαράντα. Ο Joey πάλεψε δύο φορές με τον Willie Pep και τον Sandy Saddler. Αυτό με έκανε να ξεκινήσω. Παλιά είχαμε τα σπουδαία Δευτέρα Night Fights στο Rhode Island Auditorium και θυμάμαι ότι έβλεπα τον Rocky Marciano να αγωνίζεται “Τίγρη” Ο Ted Lowry εκεί.”
Γιατί ήταν επιτυχημένος στοματοχειρουργός, Ο Clark θα μπορούσε να πάρει πολλά Σαββατοκύριακα για να κρίνει αγώνες σε όλο τον κόσμο. Η πρώτη και πιο αξιομνημόνευτη μάχη του παγκόσμιου τίτλου ήταν Vinny Paz-Greg Haughn I. Μέσα από τη μακρόχρονη καριέρα του, Ο Sammartino έκρινε περισσότερα από 400 αγώνες υπέρ, συμπεριλαμβανομένου 50 μεγάλους αγώνες παγκόσμιου τίτλου.
Η λίστα των πυγμάχων των οποίων οι αγώνες έκρινε ο Sammartino μοιάζει με Who's Who του Boxing κατά το παρελθόν 32 χρόνια: Mike Tyson, Oscar de la Hoya, Evander Holyfield, Julio Cesar Chavez, Τζόνι Τάπια, Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Marco Antonio Barrera, Μαρκ Τζόνσον, Wayne McCullough, Wladimir Klitschko, Gennady Golovkin, Anthony Joshua, Σεργκέι Κοβάλεφ, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Lopez, Nonito Donaire, Acelino Freitas, Ιβάν Καλντερόν, Felix Τρινιδάδ, Τόμι Μόρισον και πολλά άλλα.
Sammartino, που λέει περήφανα ότι δεν έχασε ποτέ ούτε μια μέρα δουλειάς 40 χρόνια, αποφάσισε να συνταξιοδοτηθεί, αν και θα παραμείνει οπαδός της πυγμαχίας για το υπόλοιπο της ζωής του. “Άρχισα να επιβραδύνω στην ηλικία μου, κάνοντας τοπικές παραστάσεις και ίσως τρεις ή τέσσερις αγώνες παγκόσμιου τίτλου το χρόνο, κυρίως WBO και IBF,” παρατήρησε ο Σαμαρτίνο. “Είχα μια δύσκολη περίοδο με πνευμονία στο παρελθόν 5-6 μήνες και αυτό έκανε δύσκολη την εργασία.”
Η εισαγωγή του στο CBHOF είναι ένα κατάλληλο τέλος και ένας τεράστιος φόρος τιμής στον Sammartino και την καριέρα του στην πυγμαχία. “Είμαι ταπεινωμένος που μπήκα στο Connecticut Boxing Hall of Fame,” είπε. “Αυτός είναι ένας πολύ καλός τρόπος για να τελειώσω την καριέρα μου.”
