'''Ignacio "Nacho" Beristain''' is a Mexico City-based boxing trainer and manager, who is considered by many to be Mexico's top trainer. He currently is the trainer of the Marquez brothers; [[Juan Manuel Marquez|Juan Manuel]] and [[Rafael Marquez|Rafael]], who hold world titles at Featherweight and Bantamweight, respectively.

Beristain's first world champion was longtime Bantamweight and Super Bantamweight champion [[Daniel Zaragoza]]. Beristain also guided [[Gilberto Roman]] to the WBC Super Flyweight title. In the 1990s, Beristain handled the highly regarded Strawweight and Light Flyweight champion [[Ricardo Lopez]].

Beristain's boxers have acquired a reputation over time, for their technical skills in the ring. However, he has been criticized by boxing writers, such as Dan Rafael and Steve Kim, for his cautious handling of the Marquez brothers, and failing to get them signficant fights in recent years.

He is a Class of 2006 inductee into the [[World Boxing Hall of Fame]].

== Biography ==
Brother to fellow boxers [[Billy Shade]] and [[George Shade]]

Many of the newly discovered early bouts of Shade in the BoxRec Fight Record are courtesy of research done by Chuck Johnston, International Boxing Research Organization (IBRO) Member and BoxRec Editor.

In the 1910 U.S. Census, Dave Shade was listed as Charles D. Shade while living with his paternal grandparents, Walter and Mary Shade, in Richmond, California.

In the 1920 U.S. Census, Dave Shade was listed as Charles D. Shade again, but he was living with his father and a step-mother(?) in Concord, California.

Dave Shade was listed as David Charles Shade on his death certificate.

==Career Review==

*1984 National [[Golden Gloves]] Heavyweight Champion.
*At age 20, Tyson became the youngest [[World Heavyweight Champion]] with a [[Trevor Berbick vs. Mike Tyson|2nd round TKO]] over [[Trevor Berbick]].
* Named [[The Ring Magazine|''The Ring'']] [[Ring Magazine Defunct Awards|Prospect of the Year]] in 1985.
*Named [[Ring Magazine Fighter of the Year|''The Ring'' Fighter of the Year]] in 1986 and 1988.

==Exhibition Tour==

On September 28, 2006, "Mike Tyson's World Tour" was announced. Tyson said he hoped to fight 100 four-round exhibitions throughout the world over the course of a year. "Mike Tyson's World Tour" was shades of the 1930s "Tour" by former World Heavyweight Champion [[Jack Dempsey]].

On October 21, 2006, Tyson made the first and only stop of his exhibition tour in Youngstown, Ohio. Tyson and [[Corey Sanders]] boxed four two-and-a-half minute rounds. Both Tyson and Sanders wore t-shirts, and Sanders wore headgear. Tyson dropped Sanders in the first round and appeared to some ringside observers to have held Sanders up later in the round after landing another hard punch. Tyson weighed 241.5 pounds for the fight, while Sanders weighed 292.5.

==Legal Troubles==

On December 29, 2006, Tyson was arrested around 2:00 a.m. for suspicion of DUI and possession of cocaine (a felony). That afternoon, he was arraigned and ordered released without bond. Under the terms of his release, Tyson had to submit to drug and alcohol testing and could not drink or take nonprescription drugs while the case was pending. He was also told not to leave the state of Arizona, the place where the crime took place.

On January 12, 2007, an Arizona Grand Jury indicted Tyson on two counts of drug possession and two counts of driving under the influence of drugs. On September 24, 2007, Tyson pleaded guilty to possession of narcotics and driving under the influence. He was convicted of these charges in November 2007 and sentenced to 24 hours in jail, 360 hours community service, and 3 years probation.

== Biography ==
Brother to fellow boxers [[Billy Shade]] and [[George Shade]]

Many of the newly discovered early bouts of Shade in the BoxRec Fight Record are courtesy of research done by Chuck Johnston, International Boxing Research Organization (IBRO) Member and BoxRec Editor.

In the 1910 U.S. Census, Dave Shade was listed as Charles D. Shade while living with his paternal grandparents, Walter and Mary Shade, in Richmond, California.

In the 1920 U.S. Census, Dave Shade was listed as Charles D. Shade again, but he was living with his father and a step-mother(?) in Concord, California.

Dave Shade was listed as David Charles Shade on his death certificate.

'''Manager:''' [[Tommy Walsh]]
 
'''Memphis Pal Moore''' began his boxing career while serving as a sailor in the United States Navy, drawing a salary of $35.00 a month. It was while in the Navy that he first fought [[Jimmy Wilde]]. He was selected as the American representative straight from the training camp at Great Lakes, Illinois, where he served as a boxing instructor. Together with several other boxing representatives, he was sent to England for an inter-allied tournament the month after World War I had ended.

In January 1919, Moore's manager, Tommy Walsh, announced that in order to avoid confusion with the other Pal Moores already competing around the country, his boy would henceforth be known as "Wilson Moore."

==Exhibition Tour==

On September 28, 2006, "Mike Tyson's World Tour" was announced. Tyson said he hoped to fight 100 four-round exhibitions throughout the world over the course of a year. "Mike Tyson's World Tour" was shades of the 1930s "Tour" by former World Heavyweight Champion [[Jack Dempsey]].

On October 21, 2006, Tyson made the first and only stop of his exhibition tour in Youngstown, Ohio. Tyson and [[Corey Sanders]] boxed four two-and-a-half minute rounds. Both Tyson and Sanders wore t-shirts, and Sanders wore headgear. Tyson dropped Sanders in the first round and appeared to some ringside observers to have held Sanders up later in the round after landing another hard punch. Tyson weighed 241.5 pounds for the fight, while Sanders weighed 292.5.

==Legal Troubles==

On December 29, 2006, Tyson was arrested around 2:00 a.m. for suspicion of DUI and possession of cocaine (a felony). That afternoon, he was arraigned and ordered released without bond. Under the terms of his release, Tyson had to submit to drug and alcohol testing and could not drink or take nonprescription drugs while the case was pending. He was also told not to leave the state of Arizona, the place where the crime took place.

On January 12, 2007, an Arizona Grand Jury indicted Tyson on two counts of drug possession and two counts of driving under the influence of drugs. On September 24, 2007, Tyson pleaded guilty to possession of narcotics and driving under the influence. He was convicted of these charges in November 2007 and sentenced to 24 hours in jail, 360 hours community service, and 3 years probation.
