Those were the days! I started boxing that year! I walked into Palmer Park Rec where Sugar Ray started. This was after his fight with Bruce Finch in Feb. 82'. I told my Dad, "I wanna box."

Brave Israeli Arab lawmaker Ayman Odeh has been forcefully removed from the Knesset floor after calling out Gaza war. This is the fate of honest men under tyrannical regimes. I’ve never seen an American politician this passionate about justice.

Heart-wrenching scenes of elderly people being forcibly displaced from their homes... bodies worn by age, pushed through rubble in despair, crying out: Where is the dignity? Where are the Arabs?

Marvelous Marvin Hagler dominating and stopping Mustafa Hamsho in their rematch inside three rounds. Hagler was born 71 years ago today.

If EU diplomats can be the target of the IDF in the West Bank, imagine how the Palestinians are treated. Netanyahu says he is engaged in a war of civilisation over barbarism, but the civilised world has concluded that it is the IDF that is engaged in a campaign of barbarism. The time has long come for the EU to suspend its association agreement with Israel.

@MatthewAguilar5 wrote this same story for @RingsideSeatMag a couple years ago and did a hell of a job with it.

Just spoke with a friend of mine from Gaza. His family was forcefully displaced from one campground to the next, with no food or supplies. Last night, his sister’s tent was bombed while she and her family were sleeping. She woke up to her children’s body parts scattered everywhere, with loud screams and balls of fire forming around the refugee tents. This is a nightly occurrence for Palestinians. Israel is set on the complete extermination of over 2 million people, in the most horrific ways. May God punish these monsters and all who support them.

"White genocide". What a load of utter horseshit. This is the yanks and Israelis trying to distract from their mass murder of Palestinians and get back at South Africa for its work at the ICC. Remember who the settler-colonizers are and who is indigenous to the land.

“You judge a society by how it treats its youngest, oldest, and most vulnerable.” In Gaza: 90% of homes gone. 5% dead or wounded. Children starving. 🙏 Thank you @POTUS & @Pontifex for calling to open the border. Our aid is being blocked. Help Here: ceasefirenow.org

Nino Benvenuti, the stylish and skilful Italian who rose from Olympic gold to become a world champion in two weight classes and one of the most beloved figures in European boxing history, died on Monday at 87. Rest in peace, champ 🌹
