If I think correctly, I believe it was not, I think he once worked in one form of hard labor, like carpentry. That was what developed his hands.

When a boxer, as a result of a heavy blow goes down, the referee starts counting. If the boxer is not up till count of 10 he will be considered 'Knocked Out'.

Muhammad Ali knocked Foreman out on October 30, 1974 to win the heavyweight title.

Our Family comes from a town in Mexico named Ramires, Victoria, state of Durango, Mx. Our family there is second generation Mexican.

The De La Hoya name itself or our ancestors come from Spain, by way of France and we have trakced down our some of our roots back to Germany.

The name actually started off as HOYA. Then changed when some family moved to France to Des Hoya, then Changed again when moved to Spain to De Hoya/De La Hoya, then moved to Mexico.

Our Family roots in Spain are in Malaga and Andalucia.

There was a small town in France at one point named Hoya.

Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, Jersey Joe Walcott, Floyd Patterson, Sonny Liston, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, George Foreman, Leon Spinks, Larry Holmes, Michael Spinks, Mike Tyson, James Buster Douglas, Evander Holyfield, are just some of the African American heavyweight champions.

A knockout occurs in fighting or boxing in two ways. The primary way is that the power of a punch causes the brain to crash into the inner wall of the skull. This in turn sends the brain into a immediate shutdown mode and renders the person unconscious for a period of time, seconds to minutes depending on how long the brains self check or diagnostic lasts. The other method of a knockout is caused by a build up in the body from punches that cause high levels of acid to accumulate around the muscle tissue and the ensuing pain becomes great enough for the brain to tense up and incapacitate the body. A body KO is harder to achieve.

it is a end swell. pushes the swelling down THE BAR IS IN DRY ICE UNTIL USED. IT DOES NOT PUSH THE SWELLING DOWN. IF YOU WATCH ,YOU SEE THE CORNER MAN PUSH THE BAR I A DIRECTION FROM THE EYE. WHEN PRESSURE AND MOVEMENT IS APPLIED IT HELPS KEEP THE FIGHTER TO SEE AND THE REF. ALLOWS THE FIGHT TO CONTINUE.

no

Not at all, but it will happen over and over.

He did not help his father because he was dead by the time Ali was born, but he did help his mother as all children should.

it depends on the opponent. If he has a scrawny neck, go for the Uppercut. If his neck looks healthy, go for the Hook.

ali never fought at the royal albert hall.

he fought at earls court, arsenal soccer stadum, and wembley stadium.

Rocky Marciano would rape his granny and send them riding on his wazzlestick. Marciano would win.

The exact reason is not known, but it is speculated that Muhammad Ali divorced Veronica Porsche so that he could marry his fourth wife Lonnie, a childhood acquaintance (16 years younger than Ali) who quit her job to be his personal nurse. Not very long after she arrived to care for him, the divorce papers were filed.

Amir Khan is indeed gay. He has been spotted numerous times with a man who people believe to be his sex partner.

When asked if he's slept with woman, he says no. However, when jokingly asked if he's slept with a man, he doesn't answer the question. He just laughs it off.

Amir Khan has also stated that when he's in the ring against his opponents, he feels sexually attracted to them and has also said that the reason he lost to Breidis Prescott was because Prescott turned him on which made him feel weak. Khan also stated that being beat up and knocked out by Prescott was very horny and a 'blessing in disguise'.

Frank Bruno was the most popular boxer since Henry Cooper, during the 80's his corny catchphrases and genuine nature adhered him to the British Public and he became Britains most popular sportsman and was loved by all. Frank and his then wife Laura were as well known as the Beckhams are now and were always in the National press, magazines and on television programmes. Some boxing purists writtened him off but Frank may not have been the most naturally talented boxer but he was always in fantastic condition, had a booming jab and was an all round heavy hitter and was highly dedictated. Whilst often remembered for the fights he lost many people tend to forget he was the first person to visibly hurt the then unbeaten Mike Tyson and was beating and outjabbing Lennox Lewis ( depsite many writers saying Lennox was the fastest jabber since ALI ) until walking on to a left hook . Frank won the Heavyweight title of the world at Wembley Stadium when he outpointed Oliver McCall over 12 rounds on an emotional evening.

Frank along with Lenny Henry,and John Barnes became extremley popular black entertainers/sportsmen and helped to bring down racial barriers. The colour of skin was irrelevant and they became popular because of their personalities and dedication. Until then most popular british Sportsmen and entertainers were white.

Frank had been wrongly accussed by a few people of ' selling out' which he denied and even served a writ at one point on Lennox Lewis . Frank is extremley proud of his Jamican heritage and extremley proud to be British. He often wore t-shirts, saying Bruno True Brit.

Only Ricky hatton has come close to the popularity Frank held in the years since he retired.
