Comments Thread For: Unsung hero Joey Dawejko hopes big win over Richard Torrez Jr. will lead towards a great life

Joey is a very short heavyweight, and is up there in age, but he's as tough as nails.
He's no easy out for anyone, and has beaten a few fighters who thought they were going to add him to their win column.
If by some miracle he were to beat Torres,that would definitely breath some more life into his boxing career.
Joey won't ever win the heavyweight championship, but he will surprise a few more fighters before his career is done.
I had to comment on this honest, hard working, take on all fighters that are put in front of him, because he's earned his respect in, and out of the ring.
You can't help but root for someone like Joey, because he takes a licking, and keeps on ticking.
In a war you couldn't do better than having someone like Joey fighting along side you. He's earned his fighting badge of honor within his lifetime.

Fair enough, but why count the guy out?
Nobody thought Rocky Balboa could win the heavyweight championship,
and he proved everybody wrong.

Rocky Balboa was a movie, and although it was based on the career of a real life boxer Chuck Wepner.
Who like Balboa fought for the heavyweight championship against Mohammad Ali, but unlike Balboa didn't win the heavyweight championship.
What happens in movies doesn't necessarily happen in real life, and unfortunately Joey Dawejko will absolutely, positively never win the heavyweight championship of the world.

How do you pronounce "Dawejko"?

Rocky was not only a movie that made "Chuck Wepner" win the world title he was never able to win in real life, it was a movie that inspired many boxers to become world champions in real life.
