Another "espn" star like Animal, Vampire, the Postman came James "Hard Rock" Green. I remember James from his amateur days out of Johnny Davenports gym. James was about 5'5" and could fight from 147 through 165 and was an intimating
young man. James fought a few big ones won a few lost a few but
was one entertaining fighter!

James the "Great" Scott, fought on espn via Rahway Prison N.J.
Jimmy started his career out of Miami Bch. and was an up and coming young fighter. He got into trouble and found himself a permanent guest at Rahway. At that time there was a lot of Prisons utilizing boxing programs and it was very controversial to bring in a TV crew.
Back then I participated in the Somers Prison (Enfield Ct.) program. I brought my fighters into the prison to compete with the inmates.
It was a "scared straight" program before it was labeled! Ha!
