CROWN BOXING

World Championship Boxing at the Orleans !

An insider reflected that this was Frank Luca's best card !

Every sport every day is what it is and you have to play the game, catch the abilities...follow the strategy...and get the breaks...boxing somewhat that way but more "mano mano".

This Orleans card headlined a world championship heavyweight bout....sort of....10 rounds ? Oliver McCall now 44 with special screening from the athletic commission to be able to fight...portrayed himself as God's personal advisor at the press conference (after a very recent checkered history of drugs, mental instability and lawlessness)..McCall knocked out John Hoppa Hopoate in 4 minutes. Mostly $100 a round fighters...I am curious as to what they paid McCall and "champion" Hopoate who flew in with a team from Australia.

Thanks to Frank Luca promoter for his red suit and his promotion of these events..nice crowd...fair prices.

Negatives...late...late...late...loud...loud...loud...dark...dark...dark.
No air conditioning...how does that work ?


Great press conferences with a sincere effort to succeed...lets do more !
