Editor selection: When Carlos Zaryate, Alfonso Zamora and the invader on his fronts went crazy in Los Angeles
Published
4 weeks agoon

It was an exotic fight, with-men, two fighters from the promised land of boxers on an insignificant Inglewood forum. He was out of reach, foreign in every way for a British fight fan. It took me over 30 years to finally watch the fight from 1977 between Carlos Zaate I Alfonso Zamora. The reports were absorbed, the iconic status of the fight protected for a long time against watching the miracle of the fight. They were both world champions in Bantamweight, both undefeated, both adolescent and at some point, the godfather of Mexican boxing, Arturo “Cuyo” Hernandez, managed and managed them. His role is part of the story. They were not only invincible, they were ruthless, able to finish men with almost every blow. Zarys was 25 years aged, WBC champion and undefeated in 45 fights, and 44 ended quickly. Zamora was 23 years aged, WBA master and stopped or knocked on a senseless each of the 29 men he met. It was not an ordinary fight in the times of great boxing history, not a fight that has ever been in danger. In the decade, the decade, a decade, when any nostalgia struggles with the splendor of the day, the two little ones Mexicans shared several rounds of size. They belong, they are history.
However, before the first bell on the night of genius and madness, it is necessary to travel a little further in your schedules. We all know that the biggest fights in history are not the number of cases, they happen because of pride, stupidity, harm, rights and hundreds of external reasons that motivate the warrior.
Hernandez sold a contract for $ 40,000 to the boxer’s father. He never offered ZARAT’s contract for sale. This movement was personal and the plain feud of blood was inevitable from the perceived betrayal. But Hernandez was a ruthless man, and business in boxing is always to be only a business. However, Zamora was a traitor to the Clan, an enemy.
“I liked the boy, still like that. But to get rid of my father, I would sell a Pinto bean sack,” said Hernandez. This is a fight.
Kabala Aged Los Angeles Fight Fight entered this contract, promising each boxer a record bag of $ 125,000. The seventies were probably the last decade in which Los Angeles took place on the highest box of boxing, and when the city delivered itself, it delivered. The fight was agreed to one pound above Bantam’s weight limit, it would be only for the Macho belt and everyone left the ring as a master.
The forum was in a part of the city, often called Little Mexico, and in the night 13,966 tickets sold. This place was sweated, don’t make a mistake. The problem was that we did not deny it – it was expected, and the police were in their characteristic white helmets with their naked desire for confrontation. Crosses in the ring, looking for a pliable head to bury your long sticks. And, like fans, they would not be disappointed.
Richard Steele is the third man.
After only 54 seconds, the opening round is happening something really crazy. The fragility of the blows, the intensity of both boxers is interrupted when a fat man wearing a cozy white vest and a pair of gray fronts and climbs the ropes. The man gets between two boxers, raises his finger, has something to say, is on a mission, and then takes the pose kung fu. It happens that the fight has stopped and Steele just looks. The man just stands there.
Then the white helmets correspond and attack the ring. It’s wild, trust me. Five police of riots evict a man from the ring, the package and sticks him while flying. Then he is pulled and kicked from the ring, and his departure screams Zakopane near Ryki, when the boxers throw blows again. The fight is not even a minute.
Every blow is cruel, they fight, as if there was something bad on the line, and Zarys is hurt in the first. This is the fight of miracles and in the third round of Zamora begins to disappear. Zarys drops his great rival in the third. After the fourth Zamor, it is more than twice as much, she once hit tidy and slow by Zara. I would like to be there in affordable places for this fight.
When Zamora is on the back for the second time in the fourth round. His father climbs through the ropes and throws a moist towel from surrender to his son and lands on his face. However, he does not approach his affected boy. The fight officially ended in 71 seconds of the round. But Zamora SNR has unfinished business and she bursts Hernandez with a blow or two or three. The boxer is still on the floor when the ring is again besieged and the men begin to throw blows at each other.
Riot police return, this time six of them, and they are lost in a swing in a low -circuit 30, which took over the ring. It was the only possible ending.
Zamora lost the title in the next fight, lost three of the next seven and left boxing when he was only 26 years aged. It is rarely mentioned on the lists of Mexican idols.
Zarys lost the title next year with Wilfredo Gomez, lost over 15 rounds with Lupe Pintor in 1979 and gave up in 1988 after losing another fight with Daniel Zaragosis.
Zarys is a great Mexican, he won this fight, and his position will never have doubts. It was a fight that could permanently change man. The fate and life of a comic superhero on the Y fronts remain unknown. What a fight.

Marco Antonio Barrera in MD 12 Erik Morales
November 27, 2004; MGM Grand, Las Vegas, NV
Mexican warriors Barrera and Morales ended their epic trilogy in a properly urgent style, creating another unforgettable war. Entering in the start, in the case of the Super Feather WBC Morales belt, the series stood with one winner per item. Morales won the initial meeting in Super-Bantam in 2000, and Barrera secured the creation of a rematch in 2002 in a featherweight-the decisions were questioned. Accordingly, the verdict in the rubber match also caused a debate. As in the previous two meetings, bitter enemies got involved in a furious fight, and the electrifying 11 round turned out to be particularly cruel. Ultimately, Barrera went to the top and adapted Morales’s achievement, becoming the three world letter.
Do you know? At that time, WBO Feather Highland Scott Harrison was interested in an observer in Ringside. He hoped to catch the winner.
Watch out for: In the middle of nine, the fighters are involved in the clinch, and Barrera is bursting morale at the back of the head with a legal apparatus. Uninvited by his opponent, Morales refuses to touch Barrera gloves when the judge was asked.

Felix Trinidad in RSF 12 Fernando Vargas
December 2, 2000; Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, NV
A lot was expected about the battle of unification of power between Trinidad and Vargas and, fortunately, did not disappoint. Trinidad, who defended his title WBA, jumped out of the blocks and twice started in the opener twice. Vargas returned a favor in the fourth round, sending Trinidad to a mat. Even worse for Felix, he was also deducted to a low blow. The same violation meant that the next point was taken from Trinidad in seventh place, before Vargas lost the point after a closer south of the border in 10. Constant violence with the view lasted to 12., in which the trio knocking up from Trinidad finally ended to a perfectly exhilarating competition.
Do you know? Former victim of Trinidad, Kevin Lueshing, called Boxing news Offices to discuss a brutal conclusion to fight. He said: “It caused a terrible memory of how he finished me.”
Watch out for: The complete HBO Pay-Per-View transmission is available to watch on YouTube. In Undercard he presents himself like Christa Martin, William Joppy and Ricardo Lopez.

This is the latest in the occasional series about the heavyweight champions of the world and their visits to Great Britain. In previous articles I wrote about Primo Carner and Langford himself, and this week I will look at Jacek Johnson and his British concert tour of 1908. Jackjohnson came to Great Britain on Monday, April 27 from the States, when the German steamer, Kronprinz Wilhelm, did in Plymouth. He was accompanied by his manager, Fitzpatrick himself, and two men immediately followed the train from Plymouth to the Paddington station in London, checked in at the Adelphi Hotel, and in the evening he visited the British Botker, in the field of eight circles, to see 20 rounds.
Johnson was in Great Britain to hunt Tommy Burns, also visiting London, to force him to defend the title, which, as we know, took place in Sydney eight months later. Two men exchanged words in Sporting Press and Burns, who stayed in Jacek’s Castle, in a pub in Hampstead, immediately published 1000 pounds from The Sporting Life, stating that if the Johnson camp was fitting to this amount, the fight was turned on. Fitzpatrick opposed the terms for which Burns insisted on the proposed match and refused to cover money. Johnson challenged the shooting moir, but it was rejected when Moir drew a color line and refused to meet the American.
Johnson spent the majority of this summer, appearing in various music rooms in Great Britain, boxing at exhibitions with a wide British heavyweight, including Jewey Smith, Jam Styles and Fred Drummond. In those days it was quite lucrative for the highest level boxers. Then he was tailored to Ben Taylor (Woolwich) to a 20-round competition in Plymouth. Jack trained on a fight at Regent’s Park and at the Junior High School at the National Sporting Club. He left the Waterloo station on July 30 to go to Plymouth for a fight, which was to take place the next day in Cosmopolitan Gymnasium, Mill Street. A vast contingent of fans welcomed him in the city of Devon, which at that time was the center of the fight of the great importance.
The competition, as you can expect, turned out to be one -sided when Johnson defeated Taylor with ease, raising him 11 times in front of a judge called Halt in the eighth round. After the duel, Johnson praised Taylor at his break, stating that he never met a player during his entire career. Later that night at the Mount Pleasant Hotel gathered at the Mount Pleasant Hotel, near the cosmopolitan, where Taylor founded his training camp, and Jack appeared to give Taylor again congratulations to Taylor for organizing such a good competition.
Johnson took part in a series of exhibitions in Dublin, and then in Bristol, where he participated in the Bristol City Vs Everton football match in Ashton Gate – his first experience in sport. Until September 7, he returned to London and announced that in October he was adapted to Box Mike Schreck at the National Sporting Club. On September 14, Schreck manager Jimmy Kelly was announced that the fight was not turned off because Schreck could not be relied to get to a decent condition for the fight.
Together with Burns in Australia, Johnson remained high and desiccated, without a significant fight, so the National Sports Club organized a competition against Sam Langford, which took place at the club on November 9. What would be a coup d’état – a match between the two best bulky scales in the world – but unfortunately this did not happen. On Monday, September 21, Johnson left the Charing Cross Station on the planned Łódź train at 13.20 to France to start a long journey to Australia, where he finally met and defeated Tommy Burns three months later.
