    VANES dedicates April 27 bout to lost souls of The Armenian Genocide

    Between the years 1915 and 1923, during the chaos of World War I, over one million Armenian men, women and children living within the Ottoman Empire’s borders were killed; forcing hundreds of thousands of Armenians to flee to foreign countries after being stripped of their possessions, their iden****** and their homeland.

    Documented as the first instance of genocide in the twentieth century, the Armenian Genocide remains unacknowledged to this day. I strongly echo the sentiments that all nations must examine their own painful histories, as the denial of genocide further wounds a nation’s ability to heal. Though over ninety years have passed since these mass killings took place, present day atrocities resonate throughout the world. It is our responsibility to recognize the brutal slayings of so many innocents, remembering their suffering and vowing to help prevent future genocides.

    April 24, 2007 will mark the 92 year anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Sadly, to this day, both the Turkish government and the US government have not acknowledged the Armenian Genocide.

    Vanes "The Nightmare" Martirosyan will dedicate his April 27th fight in Houston, Texas to the lost souls of the Armenian Genocide of 1915.


    Please educate yourself and those around you about The Armenian Genocide and all genocides going on around us today.
    Armenian Genocide of 1915 was perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire. Armenian genocide information, genocide research materials, recent armenian genocide news, evidence of genocide in history, quotes, recgnition efforts.



    Thank you.

      I think that most knowledgeable scholars and/or historians recognize that genocide happened to the Armenian people. No 'deniers' here on boxingscene, I don't think..

                    The USA also has not officially recognized the Armenian Genocide. This is due to their obvious political ties with Turkey.

                    Look at this ***** Condoleeza Rice talkin about it... how well she avoids the word Genocide
