    Wild Bulls, Discarded Foreigners, and Brash Champions: US Empire and the Cultural Constructions of Argentine Boxers Daniel Fridman & David Sheinin In the past decade, scholars have devoted growing attention to American cultural influences and impact in the Philippines, Panama, and other societies where the United States exerted violent imperial influences.1 In countries where US imperi- alism was less devastating to local political cultures, the nature of American cultur- al influence and the impact such force had is less clear and less well documented.2 Argentina is one such example. American political and cultural influences in twen- tieth-century Argentina cannot be equated with the cases of Mexico or the Dominican Republic, nor can they be said to have had as profound an impact on national cultures. At the same time, after 1900, US cultural influences were perva- sive in and had a lasting impact on Argentina. There is, to be sure, a danger of trivializing the force of American Empire by confusing Argentines with Filipinos as subject peoples. Argentina is not a “classic” case of US imperialism in Latin America. While the United States supported the 1976 coup d’état in Argentina, for example, there is no evidence of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and US military backing on a scale equivalent to the 1964 military coup in Brazil or the 1973 overthrow of democracy in Chile. Although American weapons and military strategies were employed by the Argentine armed forces in state terror operations after 1960, there was no Argentine equivalent

Now Frazier and Yank Durham, his trainer-manager are trying desperately to get a return fight with George Foreman, who stopped Joe in two rounds at Kingston, Jamaica, on January 22. A Foreman-Frazier fight is one of the very few major attractions open for competition among the leading pro­ moters, all of whom are based in the United States. Efforts are being made in England to pull Joe Bugmer and Danny McAlinden into the Big Fight ranks but the impression exists in well informed circles that neither qualifies. Putting together the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle, which were scattered to the winds by the Foreman victory over Frazier and the Ken Norton defeat of Ali, is a task which has eligible promoters stymied. Heavyweight champion George Foreman gets warm welcome from students at E. 0. Smith Despite the fact that Ali was a Junior High in Houston, the school he attended as a youth. $3,200,000 victim of the Frazier debacle, he stood out as the wise man of the limited coterie of top-flight heavies until he took Norton too lightly.

  • Emile Griffith WORLD CHAMPION B
    EMILE GRIffITH WORLD CHAMPION b. February 3, 1938 BOXER d. June 23, 2013 “I kill a man and most people forgive me … I love a man … this makes me an evil person.” Emile Griffith was an American professional boxer who won five world boxing championships. He fought more world championships than any other prizefighter. He won five Griffith was born in St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. One of eight children raised world boxing by a single mother, he moved to New York City as a child. While working as a 14-year-old championships. in the heat of a garment factory, Griffith asked his boss if he could remove his shirt. His boss noticed Griffith’s athletic physique and introduced him to Gil Clancy, the famed boxing trainer. Griffith officially entered professional boxing in 1958, winning the Golden Gloves open championship the same year. Three years later, he won the welterweight championship, defeating acclaimed fighter Benny “Kid” Paret with a 13th-round knockout. Griffith faced Paret in a nationally televised rematch in 1962 at Madison Square Garden. It was their third encounter. At a weigh-in, Paret taunted Griffith with a homophobic slur, angering Griffith. Although it was not publicly known, Griffith had sexual relationships with men as well as women. In the 12th round of the fight, Griffith pummeled Paret with more than two dozen blows, rendering Paret unconscious. Paret died in the hospital 10 days later. An investigation by the state of New York subsequently cleared Griffith of blame. Haunted by guilt over Paret’s accidental death, Griffith claimed he was never again as aggressive in the ring.
