KELAS 2019



MARK BRELAND

Mark Breland: “I enjoy boxing, it’s a lot of fun. I’m glad to be here because I’ve seen a lot of fighters I grew up with in the amateurs. I enjoy boxing because it kept me off the streets. I wasn’t a street guy., My father would have beaten me up if I had gotten into trouble in the streets. Boxing kept me off the streets, kept me in the gym. I guess I was good at it. I had a fight with a bully when I was 14 and I beat him up. I went to the gym the same day and my coach asked me what happened. My knuckles were shredded with blood. I told him I had a fight in the street. He said you can’t fight in the street. Then I realized boxing and street fighting are two different things.

Shelly Finkel (his manager), when he came into my life, changed a lot of things. Things changed a lot. I focused more on boxing, focused on the Olympic Games, and won championships. Every tournament I went into, Saya menang, but it was a lot of fun. I wanted to inspire youths. I hope I can inspire some amateurs coming up. To keep going, stay off the streets, and do something that can change your life in a good way., Eddie Futch for life!”



JOE FRAZIER

Marvis Frazier(Joe’s son, digambarkan): “It is so good today to speak about my father, what he meant to me, and Joe Frazier always said to me, ‘There’s no right way to do wrong, no wrong way to do right.’ Dia mengatakan, if you don’t do right, you’re going to smell this, putting his left fist right to my nose. When it was time for me to do bad, it wasn’t me, wasn’t Marvis Frazier. Jadi, hari ini, I’m still smelling it even if he’s not here.

“I just love to talk boxing. As an amateur I was 46-1 and then when I turned pro, I beat the guy who had knocked me out. I love my father. He was a good guy and a champion. I know everybody know Muhammad Ali and I know everybody know ‘Smokin’ Joe Frazier.”



AL MITCHELL

Al Mitchell: “I got rid of anybody over 16 who didn’t want to go to school. I’ve been doing this the longest time and I want to thank the coaches. I had three or four who didn’t care about boxing, but they wanted their kids to get an education. Izzy Acosta is one. I got a perfect record at Marquette High, they’ve all graduated. I have four kids with master’s degrees, Aku mendapat 14 who have degrees, and four guys who are policemen and no way they should be policemen. Saya diberkati.

“Old coaches would tell one you’re only as good as your memories. It’s crazy with kids 14, 14, 15. I had a kid named Vernon Forrest, a four-time world champion., It’s not just about boxing. It’s getting an education and after ten years they have a good life. I want to thank you all for putting me in the Hall of Fame.”




Michael Rodgers (Ray’s son): “Terlebih Dahulu, I want to apologize for my father for not being here. He hurt his back over the weekend working a boxing match, believe it or not, and he apologizes for not being here.

“I want to thank USA Boxing and the Alumni Association for recognizing my father for this award. And when he heard about this, he said he didn’t do any of these things during the 72 years he’s been in the sport for awards. He just did what he did for the love this sport and he did what needed to be done.”

USA BOXING ALUMNI ASSOCIATION



Mike McAtee, Direktur Eksekutif, USA Boxing (digambarkan): “On behalf of the Board of Directors, President Tyson Lee, I can only say thank you, terima kasih, and thank you. Malam Ini, is a culmination of work between our members, our alumni association, but I have to recognize a couple of people. This great event wouldn’t be done without Chris Cugliari, Al Valenti and Nicole Anderson, our Alumni Association Coordinator.

“I have the honor of talking about boxing and obviously we have passion. When Marvis Frazier said this was a brotherhood, a sisterhood, and none of us, quite frankly, who’ve stepped in the ring – I include myself in that – we’re not right. Takes a special person to climb in the ropes. You all can give yourselves a hand for not being right.

“USA Boxing is proud of our history, but more proud of our future, and I can tell you the young men and women battling at the elite levels, we started at 104 and that will be taken down to 13 by Sunday evening. Tapi, lebih penting, we’re going to be breeding the next generation of champions, because this is closing the chapter of 2020, but starting the chapter of 2024, and ultimately, when the Olympic Games comeback here in 2028. This is a special time.”



Chris Cugliari, Direktur Eksekutif, Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS: “Three years ago a group of us sat around a table in Kansas City at the National Championships and this idea was hatched: John Brown, Al Valenti, John Scully, Christy Halbert, Mike McAtee and a few others. Jadi, it’s something I’m very proud of and an organization I’m proud to lead with the support of all of you.

“A quick update of the Alumni Association, we’re at about 1200 members right now and this is our third year. We had events across the country the past year, honoring Micky Ward and Vinny Pazianza in the New England area. We gathered in Chicago. We honored Izzy Acosta at the Junior Olympics in Wisconsin, as well as Buster Douglas and coach Mike Stafford at the Ohio Legends celebration, and here we are today honoring our third Hall of Fame class. We’ve come a long way. Our theme in 2020 is two missions: Terlebih Dahulu, we want to take this down to the grassroots level, second is supporting our athletes and their families as they travel to the 2020 Olympic Games.”



Al Valenti, Special Projects Consultant for USA Boxing: “USA Boxing is the one fundamental difference that makes a difference in a young person’s life. The path to self-confidence, the path to self-respect, disiplin, kemenangan, and how to accept defeat all comes through amateur boxing.

“Malam Ini, the story will be told. Malam Ini, we will take you on a path, of amateur boxing in the United States that rivals no other nation. Gold medalists, silver medalists, pelatih, pejabat, doctors…they’re all here. It’s like Woodstock for boxing; everybody’s here!”



Al Bernstein, Master of Ceremonies: “I’m delighted to be back here for my third year at USA Boxing’s Alumni Association Hall of Fame. I hosted a lot of events, MC’d a lot of events, and this is the final event because it’s in the end of December. It’s definitely my favorite.”

kelas 2019 ceremony Dec. 13 at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Putaran. (Bulan Desember 3, 2019) – Arguably the greatest American amateur boxer of all-time, Mark Breland will be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame on Friday night, Bulan Desember 13, during a special Class of 2019 ceremony at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The HOF reception is being held in conjunction with the 2020 DIRI KITA. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing and 2019 Kejuaraan Nasional, Desember. 7-15, at the Lake Charles Civic Center. The finals of the Olympic Trials will be held Sunday, Desember. 15, at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Kasino. Hall of Fame broadcasterAl Bernstein from Showtime Sports will serve as the event’s emcee for the third year in a row.

The USA Boxing Alumni Association’s third HOF class also includes two other Olympic gold-medalists, “Big” George Foremandan “Smokin’” Joe Frazier, as well as legendary coachesAl Mitchell danRay Rodgers. 

Sen. John McCain will be posthumously presented a special Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work to protect boxers and elevate the sport.

“I’m very happy to be inducted into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Breland said. “It really means a lot, especially going in this year with Foreman and Frazier. I guess it proves I’ve done a lot in boxing. I’m happy to be going in. I had a lot of fun in USA Boxing. To be going into the same Hall of Fame withEvander (Holyfield) (Muhammad) Adalah, Foreman, Frazier…champs like that, it’s something for me to be with them.”

Breland, ironisnya, first got into boxing at the age of eight, due to him being brought to his first boxing match, Frazier-Ali I, at Madison Square Garden. “We were up in the top seats,” the Brooklyn-born and raised Breland remembered like it was yesterday. “The crowd, the atmosphere…all I could think of was, wow!  I didn’t realize until I got older that there were so many stars there watching Ali and Frazier, because they were all at ringside.

“The next day I went to a gym. I was really skinny, small, but I came back the next day. I enjoyed working out and fell in love with boxing. I wanted to box in big tournaments. This is what I wanted to do, but I had hid boxing from my parents. They knew I had I played football, but that was okay with them, because unlike in boxing, we had a helmet. I won at the Junior Olympics and it was in the papers. I saw it and thought my mother was going to kill me. My mother asked me why I hadn’t told her, so I invited her to watch me fight in the Golden Gloves. She was in one of the front rows, but afterwards when I asked her what she thought when I knocked out my opponent, she said she didn’t see it because she had closed her eyes.”

Breland went on to become a five-time New York Golden Gloves champion with a 21-0 catatan, termasuk di dalamnya 19 KO, 14 coming in the opening round. In 1982, Breland captured a gold medal at the prestigious World Championships in Munich, Jerman, after which he was named the No. 1 welterweight in the world by AIBA. He was also selected as Boxer of the Year (1982) by USAABF.

Pada 1984 Olimpiade, held in Los Angeles, Breland fought his way to a gold medal,

along with eight of his American teammates: Paul Gonzalez, Steve McCrory, Meldrick Taylor, Pernell Whitaker, Jerry Page,Frank Tate, Henry Tillman danTyrell Biggs.

Breland, who completed his amateur career with an amazing 110-1 (73 Biaya) catatan, appeared to be cooler than the other side of the pillow on a hot, steamy night. No real celebrations after he won gold, to the contrary, Mark was emotionless, the same as he still is today as a trainer of champions.

“I’ve always been really laid back,” he explained. “I just remember raising my hands. At an Olympic press conference, I was asked if I was happy, and I just said I was glad it was over. I guess I didn’t seem excited. I was happy but calm. It’s the same way now (sebagai pelatih); it’s just me. I’m happy to win and happy to be doing what I do.”

“Mark’s dominance over his competition throughout his USA Boxing career cements him as a legend,” commentedChris Cugliari, Direktur Eksekutif Asosiasi Alumni Tinju AS. “His ring intelligence, commitment to his craft, and ability to fight at any pace against any style makes him a tremendous example for today’s group of amateur champions. It has been a long time coming, but the Alumni Association looks forward to reflecting on his accomplishments and honoring Mark in Louisiana.”

Confirmed special guests include 1988 Peraih medali emas OlimpiadeAndrew Maynard, three-time National AAU Coach of the Year (1972-76-77) Joe Clough, 1984 Olympic gold medalist Frank Tatedan saudaranyaThomas, 1972 OlimpiadeTim Dement, 2002 Juara Golden Gloves nasionalJaidon Codringtion, 1980 Olympic QualifierJackie Beard, 1981 Junior OlympicsGlen Modicue, four-time National championEric Kelly, 1988 Eastern Olympic Qualifier championJohn Scully, Obie Beard, Mark Lanton danStephensbrothers –Donald, Anthony danJerry.

Breland made his much-anticipated pro debut November 15, 1984, at the famed Madison Square Garden, defeating Dwight Williams by way of a six-round unanimous decision. During his illustrious pro career (1984-1997), Breland compiled a sterling 35-3-1 (35 Biaya) record and he was a two-time World welterweight champion.

The 56-year-old Breland, who once trained the late, bagus deh 1992 AS OlympianVernon Forrest, currently trains another great USA Boxing alumni and 2008 Peraih medali perunggu Olimpiade, Deontay Wilder, the reigning World Boxing Council heavyweight champion.

“Once I started boxing in the amateurs,” Breland concluded, “I started progressing. I learned a lot from other amateurs like different styles. Boxers from New York/New Jersey had different styles than boxers from Georgia/Florida, and fighting Cubans was completely different. I was beating up a Cuban fighter, but every time I hit him, somehow, they took away a point from me. I knew right away that I had to knock him out to win, and they did end up stopping the fight.”

kelas 2019 ceremony Dec. 13 at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana

COLORADO SPRINGS, Putaran. (November 21, 2019) – One of boxing’s all-time greatest, akhir, bagus deh“Smokin’” Joe Frazier, will be inducted posthumously into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame, Jumat malam, Bulan Desember 13, during a special Class of 2019 ceremony, at Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

The HOF reception is being held in conjunction with the 2020 Olympic Trials and 2019 National Championships Dec. 7-15, at Lake Charles Civic Center. The finals of the Olympic Trials will be held Sunday, Desember. 15, at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Hall of Fame broadcasterAl Bernstein from Showtime Sports will serve as the event’s emcee for the third year in a row.

The USA Boxing Alumni Association’s third HOF class also includes two other Olympic gold-medalists, “Big” George ForemandanMark Breland, in addition to a pair of decorated coaches, Al Mitchell danRay Rodgers. 

Sen. John McCain will be posthumously presented a special Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work to protect boxers and elevate the sport.

“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. Di babak pembukaan, Frazier knocked outGeorge Olynello (Uganda), followed by a third-round stoppage ofAthol McQueen (Australia) in the quarterfinals. AgainstVadim Yemelyanov (Rusia) di babak semifinal, Frazier won by way of a second round KO, even though he broke his left thumb.

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 Ali, Jimmy Ellis (dua kali), Bob Foster, Oscar Bonavena(dua kali), Jerry Quarry, Mathis, Doug Jones, Eddie 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.

Keputusan Webster Riojas di Kota Atlantik Dimenangkan oleh Seldon, Ajamu, Wikins dan Manzueta

Tinggalkan komentar

Atlantic City, New Jersey (Bulan Juni 1, 2018)–Super kelas menengah Derrick Webster menggebrak jalannya menuju keputusan bulat 10 ronde atas Oscar Riojas dalam acara utama dari kartu lima pertandingan di Hotel Claridge.

 

 

 

Promosi Mis Downing mempromosikan pertunjukan yang hampir berkapasitas.

 

 

 

Dengan kemenangan tersebut, Webster merebut gelar American Boxing Federation Continental Americas Super Middleweight.

 

 

 

Webster sangat tepat dengan pukulannya, yang ia ikuti dengan pengerjaan bodi kokoh yang memerahkan sisi-sisi Riojas. Webster mengejutkan Rioja pada beberapa kesempatan, tapi pengunjung dari Monterrey, Meksiko menunjukkan dagu yang bagus dan tetap berdiri untuk pertarungan sepuluh ronde.

 

 

 

Skor semuanya 100-90 mendukung Webster dari Glassboro, New Jersey, yang kini 26-1. Riojas adalah 16-10-1.

 

 

 

“Itu tinju di sana. Saya memajangnya. Roy Jones menyuruhku untuk menahannya lama, dan itulah yang saya lakukan. Saya mulai bekerja tubuh sedikit terlambat, tapi jab adalah kunciku. Saya bisa melakukan sedikit lebih banyak dengan tubuh, tapi pukulan jab adalah segalanya malam ini,” kata Webster.

 

 

 

“Di babak pertama, Saya memukulnya dengan tangan kanan yang besar, tapi bel menyelamatkannya. Saya memukulnya dengan baik beberapa kali lagi. Beberapa pria tahu bagaimana bertahan hidup, dan dia adalah salah satunya.”

 

 

 

“Kami telah berbicara dengan USBA tentang memperjuangkan gelar mereka. Itu akan membawa saya ke tempat yang saya inginkan. Saya siap untuk merebut gelar juara dunia. Saya telah mengatakan bahwa saya ingin melawan George Groves atau Tyron Zuege. Saya akan pergi ke Cina atau Jerman atau ke mana pun untuk melawan orang-orang itu.”

 

Isiah Seldon mencetak dua knockdown dalam perjalanan menuju keputusan bulat enam ronde atas Lamar Harris dalam pertarungan kelas menengah super.

 

 

 

Di babak empat, Seldon mendaratkan serangan balik sempurna yang mengirim Harris ke geladak. Di babak lima, itu adalah hak lain yang gila Harris’ sarung tangan menyentuh kanvas untuk kedua kalinya.

 

 

 

Seldon dari Atlantic City dimenangkan dengan skor 60-52 dua kali dan 59-53 dan sekarang 12-1-1. Harris dari St. Louis adalah 9-15-4.

 

 

 

Pangeran Badi Ajamu memenangkan keputusan bulat delapan ronde atas Edgar Perez dalam pertandingan ulang kelas penjelajah. Ajamu dari Camden, New Jersey dimenangkan oleh puluhan 80-72 dua kali dan 79-73 untuk meningkatkan tanda untuk 29-4-1. Perez dari Chicago adalah 7-25.

 

James Wilkins menghentikan Joe Gbola di akhir ronde kedua dari pertandingan kelas bulu empat ronde yang telah dijadwalkan.

 

 

 

Wilkins menjatuhkan Gbolo di pertengahan ronde ke-2, dan kemudian memukul lawannya selama sisa ronde. Pertarungan dihentikan di antara ronde.

 

 

 

Wilkins dari Brooklyn, NY adalah 4-0 dengan 4 KO. Gbolo dari Newbergh, NY adalah 3-3-2.

 

 

 

Dalam pertarungan pembukaan malam, Felix Manzueta menghentikan Antonio Allen di ronde kedua dari pertarungan empat ronde kelas welter yang dijadwalkan.

 

 

 

Manzueta menggebrak Allen sampai pertarungan itu dihentikan 1:17.

 

 

 

Manzueta dari Dover, Delaware adalah 2-0 dengan kedua kemenangan datang melalui penghentian. Allen dari Philadelphia adalah 0-8-1.

 

 

 

Kartu tersebut berlangsung pada akhir pekan Hall of Fame Kota Atlantik, dan bintang seperti Roy Jones Jr., Riddick Bowe, Evander Holyfield, Hector Camacho Jr., Bruce Seldon, Mark Breland, Marlon Starling, Michael Spinks dan Jeff Chandler termasuk di antara para pejabat yang duduk di sisi lingkar.”

 

 

 

 

Mis Downing Promotions would like to thank their sponsors which includes The Atlantic City Boxing Hall of Fame, Hotel Claridge, Fantasea Resorts, AEI Insurance, Urgent Response, HairX, Buy Smart Motors & New Vision Property Management.

Saya berharap sejauh ini hasil terbesar dari yang sebelumnya 5 reuni yang diadakan dua kali di Rival Boxing di Las Vegas, sekali di Jimmy's Corner di Manhattan dan sekali di masing-masing di Mohegan Sun dan Kasino Foxwoods Connecticut.

Di reuni saya yang lalu, termasuk yang terbaru diadakan di Rival Boxing Store di Las Vegas pada November 18, kami memiliki orang-orang seperti Roy Jones Jr., Alex “The Bronx Bomber” Ramos, 1992 Olympian Montell Griffin, mantan juara dunia tiga kali Mike McCallum dan Iran Barkley, dan “Petarung” dan Irlandia Micky Ward yang hadir.
Di antara momen paling istimewa di reuni saya, kami memiliki Mike McCallum dan Alex Ramos, yang bertemu satu sama lain di semifinal 1980 Sarung Tangan Emas NYC, terhubung kembali di Las Vegas akhir-akhir ini 2014, kami memiliki Luis Ortiz dan Lawrence Clay-Bey, yang dibawa bersama 2015 di Foxwoods setelah tidak hanya tidak bertemu satu sama lain 38 Bertahun-tahun tetapi bahkan setelah tidak tahu mereka bertarung satu sama lain 1977 sampai hanya beberapa hari sebelum mereka bersatu kembali dan di NYC selama musim panas 2015 kita memiliki 1984 Sarung Tangan Emas Kota New York 156 pound juara dan runner up Dennis “Pesulap” Milton dan Jesse Lanton terhubung sekali lagi.
Media manapun yang ingin menghadiri acara di Harlem, New York pada bulan Maret 18 lebih dari diterima untuk menjadi bagian dari kemeriahan.
