Well, Huck, or whatever his name is, did look excellent. It was very common for boxers in the USA in the old days to change their names for box office reasons.

Wach won again last night. He's now 24-0. http://www.fightnews.com/Boxing/wach-whallops-haggler-76059 http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=309799&cat=boxer

I dunno. He's a strange bird. Those pec implants, if that's what they really are...too weird.

"Thanks for the info WW, Golota wasn't the crazy fighter he was made out to be.. " I don't know about Golota not being crazy. He was pretending to be a police officer for a while there, pulling over girls, flashing some toy store badge. Golota was said to be a close friend of "Pershing"...

So many of Golota's fights were highly suspicious. He was mixed up with the Polish Mafiya. I've dealt with a lot of junkies and the moment I saw Golota walk into the ring vs. Lewis - after he disappeared and no one knew where he was, and then he showed up in a police car right before the fight -...

He DID beat Byrd and Ruiz and he beat them both fairly and squarely and he was robbed of the victories and the belts by the crooked judges and that New Jersey @#$% dressed up in a referee suit, Randy Neuman. Edited by: ww

Question: If he's really had AIDS all these years why isn't he all sick and weighing 80 pounds as opposed to still fighting?

Oh sh*t, he's an Irish Traveler. They're like gypsies, only worse. Here's a bunch of them, men and women, fighting with each other over something or other http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZPH14zZi9M&feature=related Edited by: ww

"He was as of a year or two ago. I recall him doing some championship fights in Germany for the IBF. Neuman allows..." Yeah, Neuman is still impersonating a referee. There was something about him refing some fight on fightnews yesterday. He also runs a financial planning company, Randy Neuman...

It was as though Neuman was deliberately being assigned to all of Andrew Golota's fights in order to dog him - and why wasn't Golota's manager threatening to put him on a train to parts unknown if they try to stick Neuman in there with him again? I remember George Foreman being irate at...

What I mainly remember about his fight with Briggs, in which, as you said, he looked flat, but was clearly ahead in the scoring up until the final round, was his corner screaming in his face, begging him, to box and stay the hell away from Briggs whose only chance was to knock him out in the...

Is that what he's about? Maybe they paid him a lot of money to let Briggs sock him on his kisser then.

I don't have a handle on this guy. He looked superb against Brewster; I think he deliberately lost to Briggs; he didn't fight at all on '07; lost to lost to Valuev in '08; and one fight per year afterward vs. mediocre opponents.

I thought that was a done deal. I didn't realize it was merely a rumor.

Is Neuman still working? The referee who let the Vitali-Briggs fight continue (and cheated Vitali out of another ko) should have been arrested for cruelty to animals if nothing else. Likewise Briggs' corner. I'm surprised Briggs lived through that.

"Camps can voice objections to the boxing commissions before matches about referees." But they don't - refs, judges, ring sizes, etc. I'm particularly thinking about how they always used to assign that cornhole Randy Neuman to Andrew Golota fights, and Joe Cortez teaming up with Mayweather vs...

<div ="post">I bought Roger Kahn's book on Jack Demsey in the used book store. I haven't actually started reading it yet, but I was skimming it, and reading about how concerned the managers of Dempsey and Tunney were concerning who would be picked as referee for their big fight. Benny...

Who's Chakhiev?

I took a big swig of super strong Puerto Rican rum or whatever it was once, and I have the photo of me KO'd and flat on my back, decorated in obscene ways by the female witnesses. Odlanier spelled backwards is Reinaldo.

Wow - I never even heard of that show until I saw this. I wonder if I could find more episodes someplace online. Tony Galento didn't sound like a very nice guy, did he? I used to stay in Jersey City sometimes. I don't know where Galento's saloon was or what's there now. Probably someplace nearby.

1960 - Here he is interviewing Jackie Gleason. Super rarity! http://xoteria.com/CH1.html

I hope that Boytsov can stay healthy. He's injury prone. But he's a terrific fighter. I recognized that the first time I saw him.

I can't find a working video of that fight online, but Solis completely ran out of gas after the first few rounds and was doing nothing thereafter, which even the talking head announcers (who were gratuitously going on about how the K's are "robotic") noted. The most interested bit in that fight...

Agreed. Another trash talking chest pounding semi-simian. He should be nothing but a blubbery black heavy bag for Doctor K.

I think the stoppage was way premature. I've seen too many house referees dive in at the first opportunity to stop the fight in favor of the house favorite. Standing eight count or no standing eight count I think he should have seperated them and counted. Abell would then probably...
