@MonteroOnBoxing It's the 2nd time in this era of "All-Time Great" heavyweight champions, where they had an off night against someone other than a boxer. Struggling with a 37 year old kickboxer and you're considered an all-time great is something in my book.😄

Before this weekend, no great heavyweight in the history of boxing ever had an off night. Not once. Usyk was the first great fighter to have an off night. You are welcome for this history lesson, fight fans. 👍🏼

Reading doesn't make children smarter. It doesn't improve their vocabulary scores. It doesn't get them better grades. Well — it might do all of those things. But that was never why it mattered. It gives them somewhere to go that belongs entirely to them. That is a gift with no price tag. Give it without conditions.

The two most notable kickboxers-turned-boxers are Troy Dorsey, the former IBF 126lb champion who was the first kickboxer to win a world boxing title; and former heavyweight title challenger (and actor) Randall “Tex” Cobb, who fought on national tv as a kickboxer.

But I think it shows just how difficult it is to predict careers. It’s not a certainty that great amateurs turn out to be great pros. Leonard and Davis were at the least equals - yet one turned out to be one of the greatest fighters in history and the other never won a world title. A lot has to go right.

@MatthewAguilar5 @DonovanKasp Right! I correct people often with hardwork pays off! It does, but I trained with guys who trained hard and never made it. First one in the gym, last one to leave and we never heard of them. Everybody, no matter how hard they work is not gonna make it.

45 years ago May 23: Wilfred Benitez stops Maurice Hope in 12, wins WBC 154lb title, @CaesarsPalace LV. Benitez, the youngest world champ in boxing history, becomes the 1st fighter in 43 years - since Henry Armstrong - to win a title in 3 divisions with devastating, 1-punch KO.

@MatthewAguilar5 @DonovanKasp In the ring, Ray's nasty demeanor, coupled with his very good power in combinations. Outside the ring, his charisma definitely surpassed Davis. Also, Ray was groomed to be the "new" star.

@SteveKim323 I'm ashamed of you, Kimster. The respect I've had for you throughout the years and ruin it by drinking Zima!?!? 😆 I know drinkers from four of the seven continents and you're the only one I know who drinks it.🤣

Sad to report that an old friend,Kenny Fusco passed on Monday. A welterweight who boxed in the 70s & 80s. finished with a record of 11-3 - 9 KO’s. He got cancer after volunteering at the World Trade Center after 911. He’s the third person I know who died after volunteering there.

@MonteroOnBoxing Good fight for Bradley! But I didn't think of him as a Hall of Famer. These days all you have to be is well liked and affiliated with the right people.😃

I picked Bradley to win this fight and, living in LA at the time, I took mad heat for it haha. But agreed, this was a great performance by Bradley that stamped his HOF ticket. IMO, it was a perfect example of "styles make fights". Bradley's style was ALL WRONG for Marquez.

This may be the most underrated elite performance of all time. Timothy Bradley cleanly outboxed Juan Manuel Marquez who was coming off of the greatest KO of the 21st century.

@G__Chain He seemed to be a reluctant warrior at times. I wonder if he loved boxing or it was just a job, like I've heard other fighters say. I've talked with former fighters and boxing is the last thing they talked about. And they were very successful, too.

@IceJohnScully He was getting high which effected his judgements allowing the gang to be infiltrated by Ice-T who played a FED. He had to go! The drug use also left him compromised and snitching would come next. "It's business, always business."

@snboxing The first thing I learned in boxing was how to punch and balance. Starting with the jab, of course. Always stepping to the opponent. Being a puncher or boxer is more of a personality trait. Some guys relish getting hit and don't care. Some guys prefer to hit and not get hit.

He believed that boxing derived from fist fighting. The goal to win a fight is to stop your opponent. If you don't know how to punch properly, the other stuff becomes secondary. What good are evasion tactics if you can't stop your opponent? (2/3)

Some other Dempsey things that I've found interesting. He believed that most trainers taught boxing ass backwards. Almost all started with defense/movement first, where he believed teaching how to punch hard was the most important thing. 1/3

@MonteroOnBoxing I remember working in downtown D.C in the early 2000s. There was a homeless guy in the middle of the sidewalk, unconscious during lunch time, outside a Cafe'. Folks were eating just a few feet from him. No one check on him! Yes, I walked by astonished. It haunts me..
