The Passing of President Wolfe- (Aug 27 2017)

To all members: It is my unfortunate duty to advise you of the passing of Past Middle Atlantic Association of USA BOXING President Anthony “Tony” Wolfe Sr.Tony was a dedicated member of the Middle Atlantic Association and served as President from 1999 to 2013. He was active at every show and assisted in every aspect from weigh-ins to Judging.

Tony was born Anthony Tuzzi[http://obits.pennlive.com/obituaries/pennlive/obituary.aspx?n=anthony-c-wolfe-tony&pid=186533469&fhid=4020]on June 30, 1930. He excelled academically in school, but found a passion in boxing by age 15. Although the legal age for boxing was 18,Tony turned pro at the tender age of 16.Even though he was following his boxing passion, he was still able to graduate from High School with high honors, playing basketball and baseball.Tony ultimately competed in 39 professional bouts scoring 11 knockouts, against some of boxing’s best talent.

After High School, he found employment as a Lineman for PP&L (Pennsylvania Power and Light).He was promoted to System Operator, Area Foreman, and ultimately assumed responsibility of the Harrisburg/Hershey Line Sections. He retired in 1995 after an incredible 43 years of outstanding service.Tony has been involved with boxing outside the ring since the 1970’s in numerous roles including 26 years as a word class referee and judge, appearing on national and European TV.

Tony’s dedication to boxing has led to numerous awards, not the least of which being Middle Atlantic Hall of Fame, Nat’l GG Hall of Fame, PA Sports Hall of Fame, and PA GG Hall of Fame.He will be sorely missed for his dedication to the youth and amateur boxers of the Middle Atlantic Association.

== Notes ==
*As both fighters were trading lefts, the left hand of Torrecampo landed across the face of Pacquiao. Pacquiao was unable to beat the 10 count. The most popular replay of the knockout shows an angle in which Torrecampo appears to hit Pacquiao with a borderline belt shot at the same time.
*Pacquiao wore eight-ounce gloves, compared to Torrecampo's six-ouncers, as a penalty for checking in overweight.
*Rustico Torrecampo was reportedly paid a sum of P6,500 for the bout with Pacquiao.

**'''Manny Pacquiao was knocked out by accidental clash of his chin and opponents left shoulder, not by a punch!! Thus it should not have been his 1st pro loss of career.

“Boxing Referee Retires From Ring” (01/19/09)

:National Boxing Association President, Walter "Butch" Flansburg announced today that veteran World Class Florida Boxing Referee '''Brian Garry''' has made the decision to hang up his "Bow Tie." Mr. Garry, often referred to as "Your Third Man in the Ring," has acted as the "Third Man" for over 25 years, inside the "Squared Circle."

:Garry began his career as a referee, in 1983, in a four rounder, at the Curtis Hixon Hall, in Tampa, Florida, on USA Cable’s “Friday Night Fights.” With 59 world title bouts to his credit, and over 1,300 pro bouts called, Brian has traveled the world. He has officiated in five Continents, 22 countries, numerous states in the USA, and 33 cities in his state of Florida. Listed in the Top 50 "Refs" World Wide, in ''The Ring'' magazine, 1998-99, he was also awarded the NBA’s "Referee of the Year," in 2004. In 1992, he conducted the IBF’s, Referee’s Training Seminar in Orlando, FL. Then again he was asked to serve in Acupulco, Mexico, at the IBF’s 2000 International Convention. He has called title fights for all of the major sanctioning bodies: WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, NBA ,WBU, and the IBO, over his long career.

:Being in with the likes of [[Evander Holyfield]], [[George Foreman]], [[Roy Jones Jr.]], [[Roberto Duran]], [[Oliver McCall]], [[Alexis Arguello]], [[Tommy Morrison]], [[Davey "Boy" McAuley]], [[Frankie Randall]], [[Cassius Balyoi]], [[Francios Botha]], [[Greg Page]],[[ Mike Weaver]], [[Winky Wright]], [[Sylvio Branco]], [[Nate Campbell]], [[Jan Zaveck]], [[Sergeji Dzinziruk]], [[Samuel Peter]], [[Yoriokis Gamboa]], [[Juan LaPorte]], [[Sven Ottke]], and [[Dirk Dzemski]], is to name a few of the Champions who have highlighted his career.

:Traveling to Beijing, China, with Muhammed Ali, in 1993, and 1994, then working the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, along with his USA Boxing officials, were memories he will cherish. Additionally he has acted as a Judge for 8 World Title Bouts during his long and exciting boxing history.

:Stepping down from the Ring Wars will allow Brian to work on the newly formed [[Florida Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with pursuing some other opportunities in the T.V. and media relations with the “Sweet Science.” His lasting motto has always been since day one, round one; “Stop it one punch too soon, rather than one punch too late.” We wish him all the best with his endeavors, and look forward to his new book release, “Your Third Man in the Ring” in 2010.

:Brian mentions that, "growing up", his hometown was Springfield, Ohio, the home of Davey Moore, World Featherweight Champion, 1958-1963. "It was in the gym where Davey trained, and my Father help run, Local 402, UAW-CIO-AF of L., that I was first exposed to the "Sweet Science." My dad had me using the hand held stop watch for sparring sessions, sweeping the deck, picking up the tape and handing out the water bottles, etc. Pretty soon, someone put a pair of 16 ounce training gloves on me, and after about 2-3 months of 'Bloody Nose Alley,' I had my first 'Smoker'! It was at a UAW sponsored picnic, out-side ring, a kid named Richard White, and I squared off, for the amusement of the 'drunken' UAW members, before the Good Amateurs and Pros showed off their 'Stuff'. I was so scared, my legs were shaking, like a dog 'crapping razor blades.' It seemed like a 'Lifetime,' but in reality the rounds were probably only 1 1/2, or 2 minutes long. The best part was after the final bell, the crowd tossed change and some paper money onto the ring canvas, as a sign of 'approval' for our 'scrapping'. The 'Bug had Bitten me.'"

“Boxing Referee Retires From Ring” (01/19/09): 

:National Boxing Association President, Walter "Butch" Flansburg announced today that veteran World Class Florida Boxing Referee '''Brian Garry''' has made the decision to hang up his "Bow Tie." Mr. Garry, often referred to as "Your Third Man in the Ring," has acted as the "Third Man" for over 25 years, inside the "Squared Circle."

:Garry began his career as a referee, in 1983, in a four rounder, at the Curtis Hixon Hall, in Tampa, Florida, on USA Cable’s “Friday Night Fights.” With 59 world title bouts to his credit, and over 1,300 pro bouts called, Brian has traveled the world. He has officiated in five Continents, 22 countries, numerous states in the USA, and 33 cities in his state of Florida. Listed in the Top 50 "Refs" World Wide, in ''The Ring'' magazine, 1998-99, he was also awarded the NBA’s "Referee of the Year," in 2004. In 1992, he conducted the IBF’s, Referee’s Training Seminar in Orlando, FL. Then again he was asked to serve in Acupulco, Mexico, at the IBF’s 2000 International Convention. He has called title fights for all of the major sanctioning bodies: WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, NBA ,WBU, and the IBO, over his long career.

:Being in with the likes of Evander Holyfield, George Foreman, Roy Jones Jr., Roberto Duran, Oliver McCall, Alexis Arguello, Tommy Morrison, Davey "Boy" McAuley, Frankie Randall, Cassius Balyoi, Francios Botha, Greg Page, Mike Weaver, Winky Wright, Sylvio Branco, Nate Campbell, Jan Zaveck, Sergeji Dzinziruk, Samuel Peter, Yoriokis Gamboa, Juan LaPorte, Swen Ottke, and Dirk Dzemski, is to name a few of the Champions who have highlighted his career.

:Traveling to Beijing, China, with Muhammed Ali, in 1993, and 1994, then working the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, along with his USA Boxing officials, were memories he will cherish. Additionally he has acted as a Judge for 8 World Title Bouts during his long and exciting boxing history.

:Stepping down from the Ring Wars will allow Brian to work on the newly formed [[Florida Boxing Hall of Fame]], along with pursuing some other opportunities in the T.V. and media relations with the “Sweet Science.” His lasting motto has always been since day one, round one; “Stop it one punch too soon, rather than one punch too late.” We wish him all the best with his endeavors, and look forward to his new book release, “Your Third Man in the Ring” in 2010.

:Brian mentions that, "growing up", his hometown was Springfield, Ohio, the home of Davey Moore, World Featherweight Champion, 1958-1963. "It was in the gym where Davey trained, and my Father help run, Local 402, UAW-CIO-AF of L., that I was first exposed to the "Sweet Science." My dad had me using the hand held stop watch for sparring sessions, sweeping the deck, picking up the tape and handing out the water bottles, etc. Pretty soon, someone put a pair of 16 ounce training gloves on me, and after about 2-3 months of 'Bloody Nose Alley,' I had my first 'Smoker'! It was at a UAW sponsored picnic, out-side ring, a kid named Richard White, and I squared off, for the amusement of the 'drunken' UAW members, before the Good Amateurs and Pros showed off their 'Stuff'. I was so scared, my legs were shaking, like a dog 'crapping razor blades.' It seemed like a 'Lifetime,' but in reality the rounds were probably only 1 1/2, or 2 minutes long. The best part was after the final bell, the crowd tossed change and some paper money onto the ring canvas, as a sign of 'approval' for our 'scrapping'. The 'Bug had Bitten me.'"
