Locals attend boxing tourney
The tournament was held in
Reno, Nevada January 30-31
and February 1, in the MGM
Grand Hotel.
Some of the best amature
boxers gathered for the tourney
which saw plenty of action
from all of the boxers. Billy Joe
Berry won the 16-19 year old
119 lbs. special senior division.
In his first bout Berry defeated
Kyle C orpus of Y akim a,
Washington. In his second
bout Berry lost to Avon
Gallagher of San M ateo,
C alifornia. G allagher was
withdrawn from competition
by his coach which permitted
Berry to advance to the
championship boxing match.
In the championship bout,
Berry defeated John Jim from
Yakima, Washington. John
Sampson came home a runner-
up in the 16-19 year old special
senior division. In his first bout
Sam pson defeated R obert
R o d rig u e z of S to c k to n ,
California. This was a very
tough bout but Sampson just
out-boxed him. J n Rodriguez’
first bout, he TKO’d. Baker of
Reno. Rodriguez was a big and
tough kid. In the championship
match Sampson lost to J.C.
Comachs of San Francisco,
California.
Lawrence Caldera also came
home a runner-up in the 125
lbs. 16-19 year old special
senior division. Caldera lost his
bout with Bruce Sam of Burns,
Oregon.
In the semi-finals, Guy
Herkshan in the 125 lb. 14-15
year-old open division had two
bouts. In the first match he
defeated Mike Simmons of
Hayward, California and then
lost to M att Enslow of
Tacoma, W ashington. This
was a close and hard-fought
match. It was said the decision
could have gone either way.
Jeff Sam, 106 lbs, in the
quarter-finals of the 14-15 year-
old division lost to Hector
C olon, Jr. of H ayw ard,
California. Sam built an early
lead but Colon’s 39 fight
experience proved too much
for the young boxer.
In the semi-finals Byron
Berry, 156 lbs, in the special
senior division was defeated by
Lem Sneed of San Francisco,
California. It was i. ported that
this was a very questionable
bout and that the spectators
disagreed with the decision.
Coach Gerald Smith said,
“When one of my boxers lost, I
have no questions when it is
close bout and the decision
could go either way. I may have
a question, but that’s the way it
goes. In this case I totally
disagree with the decision.”
Todd Danzuka, 165 lbs., in
the semi-finals open senior
division, lost a hard-fought
bout to Hank Gonzalez of San
Francisco, California. The
local boxing team has been
doing quite well for the young
boxers and with a little more
experience things could look a
lot better.
