Anonymous Unregistered A	This legendary boxer died. A ballpark/sportsfield in Charlotte Amalie is named after him. http://msn.foxsports.com/boxing/story/emile-griffith-dies-age-75-former-champion-072313

Anonymous Unregistered A	I saw that. Until now I had never heard of this 1960's boxing Champion from the US Virgins. Interesting and controversial career.

RickinAtlanta Traveler Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 3,672 Likes: 5 Woodstock, GA	My Dad was a pro boxer in the 1930's and I remember having to watch the Gilette Friday Night Fights in the 60's as I hated it but now am a huge fan. Dad was ranked 4th in the World as a Bantamweight in 1932/33! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />
