  • "Tales from the Sidewalks of New York" a Must-Read by Stan Fischler 9/9/2012
    "Tales From The Sidewalks Of New York" a must-read by Stan Fischler 9/9/2012 ENCORES don't come easy after you've hit a grand slam. Likewise, it's a heck of a challenge if you're an author expected to produce another gem after you've penned what I consider the best book ever written about boxing, Brooklyn and Jewish mobsters. But that's precisely what Ron Ross has done with his latest literary gem, "Tales From The Sidewalks Of New York," a collection of short stories about The Big Apple. His original was "Bummy Davis vs. Murder, Inc -- The Rise And Fall Of The Jewish Mafia And An Ill-Fated Prize Fighter." How good was that? Well, the harshest critic I know in Ulster County, Nancy Schuckman of Krumville, loved it and Nancy comes from the same Brownsville-East New York neighborhood that bred boxer Bummy Davis. ME? I've already read "Bummy" six times. That said, if you haven't got a copy I suggest you go online -- or whatever -- and grab one. It covers the 1926-1946 Era when Prohibition came and went while Jewish boxers such as Benny Leonard were sprinkled over every conceivable fight card. What separated Albert Davidoff -- later to become Bummy Davis -- was his enigmatic personality. He had the softest of hearts and the hardest of fists. His father and mother innocently ran a mom-and- pop candy store while his older brother Willie -- alias Big Gangy -- was a terrifying East New York hood who, ironically, adored and nurtured Albert -- or Avrum in Yiddish.

Box 3666, Conroe, Texas 77305. DID YOU KNOW That Primo Carnera, in his 6th year of professional boxing, was 6 inches taller, a 6-5 favorite at &o'clock, and 60 pounds heavier than Jack Sharkey. Carnera scored his 60th career knockout in the 6th round of the 6th bout of the evening in the 6th month of 1933 when he won the heavyweight title from Sharkey.
