[email protected] 12th March, 2021 AIBA NEWS DIGEST EUROPEAN BOXING CONFEDERATION (EUBC) THE UNFORGETTABLE "KNIGHT OF LEATHER GLOVES" JÚLIUS TORMA WOULD CELEBRATE HIS 99TH BIRTHDAY ON MARCH 7 "The Knight of Leather Gloves" Július Torma would celebrate his 99th birthday on Sunday, March 7. Czechoslovak boxing legend, historically the first Olympic winner of the Czechoslovak Republic from the London Games in 1948 in Wel- terweight, the darling of the audi- ence and the most remarkable boxer of his time, as dubbed by Rud- yard H. Russel, then president of the International Boxing Association. During his spectacular boxing career, he won almost a thousand bouts and lost in only seven. He was a multiple champion of Hungary, ten times champion of Czechoslovakia and in 1949 he won the title of European Champion. Julius Torma, with his dancing style, lifted the spectators from their seats and always acted like a gentleman in the ring: “That shouldn't even be the point in boxing. I rarely won by KO. That never even appealed to me. I just enjoyed boxing." He won his Olympic gold against the American Hank Herring. The stands were roaring as he was making his sidesteps to avoid being hit by an American “assas- sin”. After taking a hit, he flew onto the ropes and, completely disoriented for a while, looked about for an opponent. At the very end of the bout, Torma prepared a great encore.
