Peter told me on several occasions that "evrenb" is Yiddish for "pint-sized, uninformed piece of shite that everyone should ignore".

One rule is that we can not arrive under two different names.

That is a rule. But I have to have something other than the "spidey senses" I'm getting thus far. lol.

Would you want your daughter banished for simply having some similar opinions that Ol El Dooze used to advocate?


Ok...don't answer that, It's rhetorical.

9th Avenue ~ West 16th Street

Main Event >
Juan Nieves ~ 18-0-0 {9 KO's} vs. Gabe LaMarca 16-4-4 {0 KO's}

Preliminary >
Jeff Merritt ~ 5-0-0 {4 KO's} vs. Al Singletary 5-7-1 {5 KO's}

The Main Event featured the popular and highly regarded undefeated Puerto Rican Lightweight ~ Juan Nieves
against Gabe LaMarca, a scrappy club-fighting Massachusetts Lightweight.

21 year-old Jeff Merritt was facing 180 lb. Al Singletary of Harlem, New York.

Al Singletary was better than his record indicated.
* October 2, 1967 > Al upset highly regarded Jose King' Roman by scoring a KO 7.
* February 10, 1968 > Al gave undefeated Puerto Rican Heavyweight Pedro 'Schoolboy' Agosto a hell of a battle in losing in a 10-Rounder.
* April 15, 1968 > Al fought Jose 'King' Roman in a rematch, and gave Jose a good going over in a losing effort over 10-Rounds.

Jeff had about a 25 lb. advantage over the Harlem Light-Heavyweight. The bout lasted little over a minute in
the 1st Round, before Jeff slammed Al to the canvas, where he was counted out by Referee - Arthur Mercante.

Jeff just kept punching with everything he had, until Singletary went down after absorbing a tremendous barrage of punches.

Jeff Merritt improved to 6-0-0 {5 KO's}, with all KO's coming in the 1st Round.

Teddy Brenner of Madison Square Garden was promoting Jeff as a future star in the Heavyweight Division.
