  • The WBA Regrets the Sensible Pass Away of Our Friends Carlos Piñango and Jesús Celis
    World Boxing Association Official Site http://wbanews.com/new The WBA regrets the sensible pass away of our friends Carlos Piñango and Jesús Celis The the World Boxing Association regrets sensible pass away of two great friends of the entity, the former Venezuelan boxer and trainer Carlos Piñango, and International Official Jesús Celis, who were always linked to sport. Piñango passed away at the age of 54 due to respiratory arrest. He was a professional Boxer, inspired by Rafael "Pantoño" Oronó, another great Venezuelan figure boxing, and began to train and made his first steps in amateur boxing. He became professional in 1979, and debuted against Héctor Pinto. Two years after his debut, he had the opportunity to fight for the WBA featherweight title, against the Panamanian Eusebio Pedroza. He retired in 1989, with a record of 35 wins, 8 loses and 24 KO’s. Piñango was an example of personal and professional growth, he began working with the prison system in Venezuela, and he proudly claimed “inmates respect me; they love me because I treat them well. Besides, they like to train and I take advantage of that." He also trained talented Young boxers, and helped professional boxers like Gilbert Serrano, Lorenzo “Lencho” Parra, Alexander “Explosivo” Muñoz, Antonio Cermeño and Félix Machado. He was a good and loyal friend, dedicated to teach his boxing techniques and life experience to his pupils. "We, the boxers who got to know him, are aware that he was a very helpful but must of all, Piñango was very humble” said the WBA women Interim featherweight champion Ogleidis "La Niña" Suarez on twitter.

    Name: Abe Attell Alias: The Little Hebrew Birth Name: Abraham Washington Attell Born: 1883-02-22 Birthplace: San Francisco, California, USA Died: 1970-02-06 (Age:86) Nationality: US American Hometown: San Francisco, California, USA Boxing Record: click Abraham Washington Attell (born February 22, 1884 in San Francisco, California – died February 6, 1970 in New Paltz, New York), better known in the boxingworld as Abe "The Little Hebrew" Attell, was a boxer who became known for his record-setting period as world Featherweight champion, as well as for his involvement in the Black Sox scandal and other scandals. Attell was Jewish, but he grew up in an Irish neighborhood. Because of that, he often found himself involved in fights, and according to him, he would get involved in as many as 10 bouts each day as a kid. Attell's father abandoned his family when Attell was 13, and Attell had to sell newspapers to support his family. He used to sell them on the streets and corners, and while selling newspapers, he got a chance to witness the fight between Solly Smith and George Dixon for the world's Featherweight championship. With that, Attell and two of his brothers were convinced that maybe they had a future in boxing. Attell's first fight was on August 19, 1900, when he knocked out Kid Lennett in two rounds. His mother, who strongly opposed Attell's idea of being a boxer, later became one of Attell's staunchest supporters, even betting on her son to win. He gained the nickname "The Little Hebrew" in these early fights.

  • Hall of Famer Steve Farhood Celebrates 40 Years in Boxing
    HALL OF FAMER STEVE FARHOOD CELEBRATES 40 YEARS IN BOXING NEW YORK (September 18, 2018) – International Boxing Hall of Famer Steve Farhood celebrates four decades in boxing this Tuesday, exactly 40 years since he started working exclusively in the business in 1978. Farhood began his career writing for various boxing publications at London Publishing on Monday, September 18, just three days after Muhammad Ali regained the heavyweight title vs. Leon Spinks on Friday, September 15. After launching KO Magazine in 1980 and serving as editor-in- chief of The Ring Magazine for nearly a decade, Farhood joined SHOWTIME in 2001 and has been a staple on the ShoBox: The New Generation series since its inception more than 17 years ago. Over the past 40 years, Farhood has nearly seen it all in the Sweet Science. Now, as he prepares for consecutive Fridays of ShoBox telecasts, the lifelong New Yorker lists a handful of mythical matchups he’d love to see, regardless of the generation. FARHOOD’S TOP MYTHICAL MATCHUPS: Joe Frazier-Mike Tyson (heavyweight): The ultimate dream fight. No jabs allowed. Roberto Duran-Alexis Arguello (lightweight): They were both 135-pounders, just not at the same time. Sugar Ray Robinson-Sugar Ray Leonard (welterweight): Biggest crime in boxing history: There’s no video of Robinson as a welter, when he was at his very best. Sugar Ray Leonard-Floyd Mayweather Jr. (welterweight): The best fighter I’ve ever covered versus the best fighter of this generation. Jack Dempsey-Rocky Marciano (heavyweight): Boxing’s big men were smaller back in the day, but pound-for-pound, nobody hit harder than these two.
