boxing hall of fame weekend 2020

Within a matter of weeks, the COVID-19 pandemic cut off the earning potential of every boxer and staff. Had I opted to depart in the morning, the temperature would have been in the low 70s while it would have been in the upper 80s had I left in the early afternoon. Photo: Alex Menendez/Getty Images. For various reasons, Fernandez and I haven’t been together for a Summit for several years, and while he tells me we’ll have another one down the line, it’ll have to take a different form. Instead, I am inside my Home Office, doing what I normally do during most weeks – compiling CompuBox research, tending to my ever-expanding DVD collection and writing articles for RingTV.com and The Ring whenever sufficient time to do so occurs. If this had been a normal year, the thought of reuniting with my friends under these happy circumstances would have given me all the fuel I needed to complete my long drives with more than a little energy to spare.
The lightweight champion who would go on to defeat Oscar De La Hoya for belts at 147 and 154 struck the bag with such lightning speed and breathtaking force that I thought, “Thank God I grew out of the 135-pound weight class during high school.” The vast majority of my time that year was spent with father/trainer Jack, who I met, by chance, at the Saturday golf tournament. CANASTOTA, NY-OCTOBER 30, 2019 - The International Boxing Hall of Fame announced that tickets are on sale now for the 2020 Boxing Hall of Fame Induction Weekend events slated for June 11-14th. Their associations with Canastota are so strong that when I see some of them in other locales, they seem out of place. I believe that I will begin my next pilgrimage to the IBHOF’s Induction Weekend on Tuesday, June 8, 2021, that I will engage in my “Quiet Wednesday” ritual the following day, that all of us will once again experience the exhilaration of the long Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and that we will absorb the sights of what may well be one of the most memorable Induction Days in the hall’s history on Sunday, June 13, 2021. 11.
_taboola.push({ The Florida Boxing Hall of Fame has announced that the Class of 2020 will go on this year after all. If this had been a normal year, today would have marked the start of this year’s International Boxing Hall of Fame Induction Weekend in Canastota, N.Y. As would have been the case in recent years, my journey would have begun on Tuesday when I would have driven from Friendly, W.Va. to my usual midway stop in Erie, Pa. After staying overnight and spending my evening writing the first installment of what would have been a three-part “Travelin’ Man” article, I would have departed early Wednesday morning to complete the second half of my inbound journey. Charlo KOs Rosario, unifies WBC/WBA/IBF belts, Charlo tops Derevyanchenko, retains WBC belt, Figueroa retains WBA belt in war with Vazquez, Casimero stops Micah to retain WBO bantam title, Taylor: I’ll whoop Ramirez’ ass all day long, Mario Cazares: It was a clean punch to the head, Chavez Jr: They stopped the fight too early, Cazares just came to hold and foul. But we think he’s on the right path.
The hours would have passed by quickly, and only the need to finish my day’s writing would cause me to say my goodbyes and return to the hotel.
The 8th Annual Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame Induction Weekend. However, we were fortunate to find available dates at the beautiful Marriott in St. Petersburg/Clearwater. Two fighters in a ring, some crew to film, and some socially-distanced commentators were a distant possibility. I knew that in less than 24 hours this area would have been packed with fellow boxing lovers, including dozens of people I’ve gotten to know over the years who I only see in this place during this week. The 8th Annual Induction Weekend happens August 7th & 8th at Red Rock Casino Resort and Spa in Las Vegas. But that itinerary has changed in recent years because (1) the main reason for attending the cocktail was to chase down the autographs I didn’t already have, and, in recent years, I had already collected the signatures I wanted long before that event, and (2) I skipped the banquet because I was graciously invited to dinner by former BWAA president Jack “Mantequilla” Hirsch and his wife Audrey, Neil “Mustafa” Terens, J.R. “Jowett Boy” Jowett and Jack “KO JO” Obermayer — the original “Travelin’ Man.” Jack’s passing in 2016 hasn’t deterred us from gathering each year, and, in time, the group gave me my own nickname (“Hit Man”) which melds an obvious reference to the button-hitting I do for CompuBox with the moniker proudly earned by Hall of Famer Thomas Hearns.
Great job Flansburg.. Congrats to all the inductees..
