LOL...dude, you're out there, ain't ya?

did he fight any notable fighters that he has told you about?
that would be pretty cool

Truth be told I don't know who he fought. I do know he was one step away from the 1976 olympics (I believe that's which one it was) but he got jobbed in a fight deciding the olympic boxers (olympic boxing blows).

I'll ask him next time I talk to him. He can still fight though...he's scary. He was still ****in' up lightheavyweights until 3-4 years ago and he fought at 110 lbs and lower as a teen.

He is a furious fighter, lots of punches. Even at his older age (46) I am not so sure I would want to fight him. When he's doing the mitts with me, if I mess up he busts me in the mouth now and then. Not often, but when he does...ouch! The end of those mitts are rock solid...lol.

lol cool out of all those fights iam sure he fought some good fighters we'd know

Yeah, maybe...but he was in such a LOW weight he may have fought no one you have heard of. Doesn't mean they were not good, but you know those little guys never get any exposure.

well ask him who he fought and who he thought was the very best. if anybody knows who they are iam sure they'll speak up. plus there is always boxrec.com

your unc has the best 'touch em up'

he's like "Tuuch em up!" i can hear the exclamation point when he says it.

anyway. gratz to ur fam for him having that opportunity.

to bad im moving outta florida super woulda loved to move on over to pen and train there daytona has **** for boxing :/

Thanks, Slip.

Sturm...where are ya moving? I live in Tallahassee right now. I don't know of any history of boxing in Daytona but a lot of times boxing gyms are things you can't find unless you are lucky or very determinded cuz they ain't even listed in phone book,s and if you find their address on the net, half the times they're wrong.

Only reason I was able to box is because when was younger someone told me my uncle used to box and I was interested to see if it ran in the blood, and happned to run into my uncle at a fair. Up until that point we hadn't seen each other in a long time. Our family is not closely knotted outside of immediate.

So I got to box because I had a connection, and even then I was lucky.

Boxing needs more exposure, big time. Boxing will never get big if the amateur system remains as it is.
