My great-grandfather beat Hall fo Fame 3 division champion Mickey Walker 2 of the 3 times they fought.. Teddy Atlas is a very charitable man.. Thank You to Mr Atlas .. Im sure I will get to thank him and the members of Ring 8 personally some time in the near future
The Tombstone was put in ... It's a beautful memorial.. We r having the memorial service on July 22nd and the Mayor of Yonkers and some retired boxers who are part of Ring 8 will be there along with my family and friends.. Also Cablevision News will most likely be on hand.. i hope I get the chance to meet Teddy and thank him and the representatives of Ring 8 and whoever made a donation.. This memorial was done very quickly and I am forever grateful
Great story, and good luck to John in his young career.
Bump for the good guys in boxing.. this is a wonderful heart-warming story and it just so happens to be my direct relative
