A Formal Petition to the Boxrec.com administration

Post by Randyman »

To the Boxrec.com Administrators

I am making a formal petition to have my fight with Eduardo Barba entered into the BoxRec records. I am asking that the entry be based solely on my word of honor and my conduct on the boxing forums on this site, most specifically the “Classic American West Coast Boxing” thread to which I am a contributing member. I have 100% faith that the members will support my claim.

The fight in question is a 6 round welterweight bout at The Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada that was won by Eduardo Barba on 10/30/1976. Our fight was the opening bout in a card that included Duane Bobick vs. Fred Houpe and Mike Quarry vs. Tom Bethea. The referee for my fight was Joey Giambra. My manager/trainer was Mel Epstein., a second man worked the corner but I no longer remember his name.

The fight was officially listed as a welterweight (147) bout but both Barba and I were a couple of pounds over the limit. The fight was a closely fought contest won by unanimous decision by Barba. I cannot recall the actual scores.

My only other fight, a welterweight bout with Ignacio “Nacho” Cota is already entered in the records and I make no other claims to any other fights or contest, professional or otherwise, in boxing.

If the fight happened in Nevada, I will research it. It might take some time however.

I found it on the internet with a quick google news search. Apparently the LA times reported it on 10/31/76. But, you have to pay to see the entire document and I cannot enter the info until I actually see the verified information. So, I will check with the local Nevada papers so that I can actually see it. Should be good and I will then enter it for you.
Also, if you have not done so, you should add some info on your biography.

Wow, thanks a lot. I really appreciate it.

So Randy's record can be marked/closed as "complete," huh?
