    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.

This book is dedicated to him and his trainer, Wilson Pitts. It is a compilation of all that I have learned throughout my eighteen years of boxing training combined along with techniques from both men. Wilson not only taught and trained Peter Hobbie, but also the boxing pride of Richmond, Virginia, Carl “Piggy” Hutchins. Wilson lived in Philadelphia and studied boxing at Joe Frazier’s gym in the 1970s. It was there that he learned and embraced the techniques of the legendary trainer Eddie Futch. By watching and eventually being accepted as a student of the sweet science by trainers such as George Benton, he was able to learn boxing tactics and knowledge that are unfortunately becoming harder to find as time passes.

I would also appreciate any other information on him Missouri State Amateur Champion Name: Art Swiden Career Record: click Alias: The Pittsburgh Phantom Nationality: US American Birthplace: McKeesport, PA, USA Hometown: New Kensington, Pennsylvania, USA Born: 1928-02-11 Died: 2004-08-23 Age at Death: 76 Stance: Orthodox Height: 6′ 1″ Joey Giardello Joey Giardello was born Carmine Orlando Tilelli, in the Bedford-Stuyvesant district of Brooklyn, New York City, on 16 July 1930. When he was still a baby the family moved to Flatbush, a slightly upmarket district which he recalled as being “A nice neighborhood, we had a nice home”. In those days Brooklyn was not the ghetto which later produced world champions Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, and Mark Breland. Nevertheless growing up in New York in the 1930’s and 40’s brought its own difficulties and the young Giardello ran with street gangs and got involved in fights. He was always independent and, like so many of the war generation, grew up before his time. By the second half of 1945, World War II was officially over, but there was still plenty of mopping up to be done.
