MIGHTY MICK’S GYM, NORTH STREET, PHILADELPHIA - DAY THE FADED PORTRAIT OF A BOXER IN HIS PRIME towers proudly over the derelict sidewalk below. INT. MIGHTY MICK’S GYM - DAY An 8mm cine projector FLICKERS noisily away as an old B & W BOXING MATCH plays out on a small screen in a dark corner of the empty gym. SUPERIMPOSE OVER FIGHT - July 6th, 1961. An elderly figure MICKEY GOLDMILL (late 60’s) watches a classic bout from the comfort of a rickerty chair. After a moment of quiet observation he climbs to his feet and trundles over towards the flickering screen. He reaches out with a shaking hand and places it on the gray scratchy image. His fingers gently brush along the CROWD that surround the canvas ring. It appears as if he is trying to connect with the soul of somebody long lost to him. The CHEERS of the excited horde rise to a deafening crescendo as he drops his head in his hands and breaks down in tears. The MONOTONE movie dissolves into BRUTAL LIVING COLOR. EXT.

  • JENNINGS Vs. DAWEJKO MATCHUP APRIL 28 RECALLS MEMORIES of ALL-PHILLY FIGHTS
    JENNINGS vs. DAWEJKO MATCHUP APRIL 28 RECALLS MEMORIES OF ALL-PHILLY FIGHTS Philadelphia, PA: When heavyweights Bryant “By By” Jennings and Joey “The Tank” Dawejko square off in their 10-round heavyweight bout Saturday, April 28, it will revive memories of the some of the great all-Philly matchups that helped to make the Quaker City one of the leading boxing centers in the country. The Jennings-Dawejko match is one of three bouts at the Liacouras Center at Temple University to be televised live by ESPN, beginning at 7 pm EST. The card is being promoted by Top Rank and Peltz Boxing. Topping the show is a 12-round contest for the WBO junior featherweight title between defending champion Jessie Magdaleno, of Las Vegas, NV, and mandatory challenger Isaac Dogboe, of Accra, Ghana. The 10-round semifinal features Jesse Hart, of Philadelphia, against Demond Nicholson, of Laurel, MD, for the vacant NABF super middleweight championship. First live fight begins at 4 pm EST and all undercard bouts will be streamed on the ESPN App. Always a leading center for boxing, Philadelphia built its reputation by matching fighters from different neighborhoods in front of large, enthusiastic crowds. Artist Jim Meehan’s drawing (above) lists several of those great matchups, among them the classic 1928 showdown at Shibe Park between Hall-of- Fame junior lightweight champion Benny Bass and unbeaten crosstown rival Harry Blitman in front of 24,000 raucous fans. “My dad went to that fight with his dad,” promoter J Russell Peltz said, “and he’d always tell me about it.
