does anybody what know b-hops amateur career

Here was the thread: http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=535658

I cannot remember who but someone posted a clip of him fighting in prison a while ago. He looked good.

How long was he in prison for? And out of interest do we know how many fights he had while he was locked up? Also, I'm curious, what did he go to jail for?

He fought in prison against other inmates in the Graterford Prison Program! I think there was 5 prison that the prison boxed against and he boxed as a middleweight. I had a friend of my familys run the Somers Prison Conn. program and for years I brought my fighters and other fighters to Somers to fight against the inmates there. There was a time when prisons had programs and they were successful in helping alot of men. If their conduct was outstanding they could get work releases to go outside the prison to fight. We had a few that we handled and I remember CBS (I think) going into Rahlway N.J to actually broadcast a live boxing show on network TV!!! Ray.

was like? how many fights did he have nationals? Straight out of the pen man, he had no amateur career that I know of.

If i'm not mistaken, his amateur career was in prison. Officially, he never had any "amateur" fights. Natas should know more about this.
