Publicado por: Raiko Martín Como suele suceder, el calendario clasificatorio se extenderá más allá de lo programado, por lo que las capacidades en el tren a la segunda parte de la actual campaña beisbolera no se deben completar antes de los primeros días de diciembre. No obstante, a las novenas de Ciego de Ávila e Industriales ya se unió la de Granma, y a este pelotón pudiera sumarse la de Holguín si gana uno de los tres partidos que le restan a partir de hoy en el establo de los Alazanes. Los Cachorros continuaron este sábado su impresionante cierre de campaña completando la barrida sobre Santiago de Cuba, en duelo reprogramado a causa de la lluvia. En el Guillermón Moncada indómito, los visitantes castigaron temprano al internacional Danny Betancourt, mientras que Ernesto Blanco y Luis Ángel Gómez unían su talento para llenar de ceros a las Avispas.

    PELTZ HOPES JULY 30 ENNIS- ROSADO MATCH WILL PAVE THE WAY FOR A RETURN TO THE GLORY DAYS OF PHILADELPHIA BOXING–WATCH FIGHT LIVE ON GOFIGHTLIVE.TV Click for full event info Philadelphia, PA–When Derek “Pooh” Ennis defends his USBA junior middleweight title against fellow-Philadelphian ‘King’ Gabriel Rosado on Friday evening, July 30, at the Arena in South Philadelphia, it will bring back memories of some of the local showdowns that once made Philadelphia one of the boxing capitals of the United States. The list of outstanding fights reads like a page out of Who’s Who in Philadelphia boxing history: Al Ettore vs. Gus Dorazio, Bob Montgomery vs. Wesley Mouzon, Charley Scott vs. Sugar Hart, George Benton vs. Joey Giardello, Gypsy Joe Harris vs. Kitten Hayward, Bennie Briscoe vs. Cyclone Hart…. You could go on and on. “The formula for success in Philadelphia always has been to match two local fighters against each other,” says Nigel Collins, editor of The Ring magazine. “There is nothing like it anywhere else.” Hall-of-Fame promoter J Russell Peltz, who is staging the Ennis-Rosado fight, agrees. “In 1961, when I was 14 years old, my dad took me to the old Arena at 46th & Market Street to see Harold Johnson defend his light-heavyweight title against Von Clay,” Peltz said. “Johnson was from Manayunk and Von Clay was from West Philadelphia. It was an unusually hot night in late April and the Arena was not air-conditioned and you couldn’t move in there it was so packed. It was sweltering.

  • The 101St Madonna Della Cava Feast

The three-day celebration News Briefs culminated in a Grand Procession in which the by Sal Giarratani image of the Madonna was carried through the streets, accompanied by society members and marching bands. Thousands Hit Streets Protesting (Photos by Matt Conti Vaccine Passports/Lockdowns MattConti.com) Citizens have taken to the streets in several coun- tries, among them France, Italy, the UK and even Australia to protest vaccine passports and extended lockdowns on the weekend of July 25th. These anti- government protests were strongly denounced by national leaders and police officials. On July 24th, some 160,000 attended public protests in France against president Emmanuel Macron’s vaccine passport requirement, in which those who choose not to accept a COVID vaccine would be excluded from nearly all aspects of public life such as entering restaurants, bars, theatres, public transit, etc. The mandate could also see business owners go to jail for not enforcing the new rules. On July 25th, Macron criticized protesters saying, “This is not free- dom, it is called irresponsibility, egoism,” according to a Google translation of a French report. London also saw massive protests over the same weekend as Boris Johnson announced a similar vaccine passport in the nation. Coverage of the protests showed people holding signs with slogans “Show your papers, comrades,” a reminder to many of the old Soviet Union’s “internal passports.” Democrats Hide Party’s Racist Roots Democrat leaders claim “the GOP wants to white- wash American history” by barring critical race theory from schools, but they refuse to acknowledge their party “did more than any other institution in American life to preserve” slavery and “enforce Jim Crow,” observes RealClearInvestigations’ Mark Hemmingway.
