A few of my memories of crazy corners I had!!

Had "Whimpy" Halstead vs the Italian light heavy champ in Milan Italy in the early 80's. I had worked with the Italian kid the time before this visit and I knew he hated to be ruffed up so I had a plan for Whimpy to carry out. The first round Whimpy was out there screwing around so when the bell sounded I went over the top rope and met him with a slap on his head!!! The crowd went nuts with "whistling" (booing in Italy) but it got Whimpy attention and he beat the crap out of Walter. Naturally he lost a decision with the ref allowing Walter to hold excessively the last 5 rounds.
It was an 8 round semi to Leo Cruz defending his featherweight title but "during the fight" it was altered to a "6 rounder" hahahaha! His management that happen to run boxing in Italy at that time were panicking thinking that Whimpy could take their kid apart!
( just remembered in was Walter Cevoli)sp.


Another was me arguing with Old Joe Maye (veteran trial horse opponent) who I handled for Vito Taleretta about which restaurant we should eat at after his bout while the bout was going on!!!! This was on Haglers birthday fight in Maine. I loved old Joe he was a teacher for a lot of young heavyweights, and if you got him mad you'd better run for the rest of the round until he calmed down.
He was blind in his right eye so we played the switch card in a different hand during the eye exam. It worked every time.

The craziest was during the amateur state championships (in Ct.) when my friends fighter took a crap at the end of the first round!!!!!!
.....that's right took a dump in the ring, not a huge one "butt enough" hahahaha........
My buddy called me for help and we took the kids rope and grabbed towels to wrap him in, dropped his trunks and protector belt and my buddy Bill swipped his draws off him!!!! He whipped his butt........In the spit bucket they went and his kid went on to win the fight!!!! hahahaha all with in the one minute rest time now that's dedication!!!!

Another was me getting suspended in R.I. for locking the
commissioner's rep in a locker at a weigh in! (pro fight)
he told me my wife couldn't work the corner and wouldn't issue her a seconds license.
She had just worked Madison Sq. Garden the week prior and the Joe Louis Arena 3 weeks prior. Here we are in some dump in Rhode Island with a garbage commission telling us she "should be home cooking" hahahaha!!!!
Funny think is that locker lock latched some how and they couldn't get him out for about 10 minutes!

She worked the corner without their BS card and we laugh about that for years. She was the second woman to work corners in the Garden and the first to be licensed in many states. Nothing like a convenient locker near by!
