Randy De La O is a lover of boxing and a significant contributor to the Classic American West Coast Boxing thread under the heading of Boxers of the Past, user name "Randyman". Randy also has a great boxing web site found at boxing-ring.blogspot.com that is worthy of frequent visits from any true boxing fan.
In 1976 Randy fought two professional boxing matches that have not yet made it on to the BoxRec boxer's records and I would like to fill in the details so his record as well as the records of the other two fighters can be corrected.
Here are the vital stats;
Name: Randy De La O
Nationality: USA
Birth Place: Los Angeles, CA
Division: Welterweight
Born: May 8, 1954
Hometown/Residence: Whittier, CA
Stance: Orthodox
Height: 5'8"
Manager/Trainer: Mel Epstein
Fights:
August 13, 1976 Coliseum, San Diego, Ca - Ignacio "Nacho" Cota - D 4
(This bout was on the undercard of the Miguel Meza victory over Manuel Lujan fight and is documented in The Ring Magazine December 1976, Page 44 in the headline article of Sunny California.)
October 30, 1976, Aladdin Hotel, Las Vegas, NV against Eduardo Barba - L 6
(This bout was televised on the Wide World of Sports as it was the opening bout for the Mike Quarry Vs. Tom Bethea fight. It however was not included in the February 1977 Ring Magazine article page 17 that reported about Quarry's upset victory over Bethea though I would like to see the fight posted on Randy's word and I will continure to research to fully document the result.)
