Scallum that is good news but Italian team isn't that good either but for young kids good job anyway! Not sure how good Italian team is but I think they did a lil better than Team Usa at Olympics 2012? I hear the Italian team lacks speed Italy, in London, got two Silvers and a Bronze in Men's boxin...

Best wishes to Coach Joe and USA Boxing! This is a good choice...the personal coach built the kid, developed the kid, and the kid respects their home coach. Joe Zanders respects and appreciates all personal coaches and truly believes they are part of the team, and an important part of helping the at...

Mel, I, for one, do not believe the southern CA judges were biased against the northern CA fighters. My observation was simply that a group of 2 or 3 southern CA clubs(gyms) benifited from biased judging in Ring 1 ( sometimes even against other sourthern CA gyms, other states, etc, not only Northern...

Believe me, some SoCal gyms fell victim to the same mystery, when they were up against that same clique of gyms from L.A. It just wasnt a level playing field. Its too bad too, because the beneficiary gyms are actually pretty good without the help, and have some pretty skilled boxers. It was getting ...

it wasnt all So CAL fighters getting favoritism, just 2 or 3 gyms from LA. It was pretty awful and very unfair. I understand parents werent allowed to judge their own child, but they were allowed to judge their childs teammates. So riddle me this,....if a bout is "close" and you know the l...

He's like 0-1, short chubby kid. Should be more like 119 but he probably eats too much fast food.

well that email was addressed to LBC boardmembers and leadership, but oh well, no big secrets once your out on the web. With that in mind, however, I don't know that name calling is going to help anything. As an update: the CSAC and USA Boxing are in contact and coming up with a solution to get the ...

Actually, so that everyone knows, The Board of Governors last fall ( before I was president) made a motion, voted, and passed that anyone having alcohol and ringcard girls at their show must disclose that in their event flyer so that the clubs can choose wether or not to take their kids. After that ...

OK...im confused. If Sylvia didn't go to the GG, how did she qualify for the Pan Ams? If she didn't make weight for the Pan Ams, how did that ualify her for the Worlds? The AIBA site list her on the USA roster, but not in the draw. USA's website initiaally listed her as being on the team. Not to tal...

The Womens World Championships started, they got the live scoring up. Also, the entries from around the world and the draws. Anybody know what happened to our pinweight? It shows her as entered, then she's not in the draw. USA Boxing website initially said we had Sylvia Villapando going at 101, but ...

TB, I agree with you on the Han v Manuel bout. Stephanie had an outstanding fourth round in her semifinal big win over Carry Barry. She and her sisters are all sweethearts and good boxers, but she wasnt even close against Patricia Manuel. I lost count of how many over hand rights and clean left hook...

check the "Gracie Sports Center" in Antioch. Dont know the number, but the coach there has been in amateur and pro boxing a long time

MEMO TO ANY ATHELTE WHO PARTICPATED IN THIS YEARS TRIALS: As I've been eagerly keeping tabs on the results from the Trials and Box-offs, pulling for my favorite boxers and friends, it occurred to me that not everyone gets to win, not everyone goes home celebrating. Your participation in these tourna...

Hunter beat Hudges

Peterson STOPPED "dynamite" Dargan

all results of Tuesdays bouts are on usaboxing.org

how come Victor Ortiz is the 132 entry at the US Championships? It's somehow David Rodela instead? Is Victor going?

names not mentioned but capable of beating anyone when they're ON

Sergio Ramos, 119
Jose Perez, 125
Timothy Bradley 152

Quality picks for 2004, but couldn't help notice a couple of California kids left off everyone's list: at 125, southpaw Jose Perez Jr., he's already defeated Bey and Garcia before, with strong 4th round finishes. Can't count him out in that tough weight class. at 152, speedy Timothy Bradley., curren...
