He could crush an apple in his bare hand! And he would crush today’s MMA stars. The amazing story of Dan Hodge who won national amateur titles both as a wrestler and boxer.https://t.co/aZPqGzposZ
"No referee should take it upon himself to gamble on a man's recuperative powers."--A.J. Liebling. Happens much too often. Watch this four-minute video: https://t.co/Tz9ojofF6o
1/3 Resigning, a Hanukkah Message: As of today I have resigned from the antisemitism advisory committee at Harvard. Without rehashing all of the obvious reasons that have been endlessly adumbrated online, and with great respect for the members of the committee, the short explanation is that both events on campus and the painfully inadequate testimony reinforced the idea that I cannot make the sort of difference I had hoped. Still, there are several points worth making. I believe Claudine Gay to be both a kind and thoughtful person. Most of the students here wish only to get an education and a job, not prosecute ideological agendas, and there are many, many honorable, thoughtful and good people at the institution. Harvard is still a repository of extraordinary minds and important research.
@highaski@RabbiWolpe Actions speaks louder than words. Thank you for matching your eloquent and clear minded words with your action to resign from the antisemitism advisory committee at Harvard. You have added light to the festival of lights.

Mike Silver's latest column is an excellent examination of the corruption and extortion that runs rampant in today's boxing. Will it ever change? It can if a few brave souls stand up against it. Read what Mike has to say here: https://t.co/aca2ghzDao
Very proud that my book "The Arc of Boxing: The Rise and Decline of the Sweet Science" was named McFarland Publisher's top selling book for June 2023. If you want to know what happened to boxing, my book has the answer. https://t.co/duhvGZ87Ol
@MichaelBensonn@ShowtimeBoxing For once a boxer--Errol Spence-- questions the ridiculous "sanctioning fees" boxers are forced to pay for the "privilege" of fighting for an organization's title belt. The boxers have earned that right by their blood and sweat. They shouldn't have to pay a dime to these thieves.

@TrisDixon Forget the "lift your arms up" question! Every referee in the world should use the "walk to me" instruction given to the fighter when he gets up. And then say "now take two steps to the side", as refs are supposed to do in N.Y and Jersey. Any faltering automatically ends it.
