Nat Williams was paid $8,600 to help with that show and he pocketed $8,000 of it.
Furthermore, Gene Hughs is a lying disrepectful fool. The Mayor's Cup is done. That was the last of it there folks. Nat Williams and Gene Hughs have ruined it forever.
They should lock them both up and force them to be cell-mates.
Keely Thompson would not even stole that much from the kids.
I wasted my damn day going to that event. What a joke, a total emmbarrassment to us all. North Carolina will never return to DC again for boxing. Local gym even tried to charge them to work out.
We are surrounded by crooks!!!
Hinton is a saint compared to these
bastards. Gene Hughs you may have mouthed off to me over the weekend, but it is your ass that is in hot water now. You might as well leave a passion mark on Nat Williams neck now before the both of you wind up at 1901 D-St SE DC
Cute Couple, Cell Mates, Crooked lovers forever, Stick your teeth in the coffee cup and start swapping spit. You can say goodbye to Doris. You never did treat her right anyway. She might start dating Ham like she did in the late 60's. Does that 1965 Pontiac ring a bell? Well her bell got rung in there up on Florida ave.
My uncle told me everything. I know about you tears and your threating letters to Ham. I hope you all wind up on Jerry Springer after you get serving your time/

This was the worse tournament that I've been to. I respect everthing that Gene Hughes has done in the past, but I was embarrassed by his behavior this past weekend. I had a boxer that didn't even get to box, but I paid my registration fee and watched as two other boxers met for the "championship" while my boxer was left on the sideline watching. He was the same age and weight as the others. This was my first time participating in the Mayor's Cup and if I were Adrian Fenty, I would remove my name and title from this event. On Sunday, there was a breakfast/awards ceremony that was listed on the schedule (with out the venue and time), so I called around and couldn't get any of the organizers on the phone - so my boxers that did compete didn't get to attend. Does anyone know where that was held or if it was held at all?

Unless all the parties involved are removed from this event, I will not support, attend or even mention this event EVER. I don't blame NYC, NC and any other out of towners that were treatly poorly from every returning. Please don't hold this event against all DC Clubs though.

BTW, who had the nerve to try to charge guests to workout? When we went to the Silvers in GA, the Augusta Boxing Club had open gym for EVERYONE. When we went down to the Title Tournament in Memphis, the Memphis PAL made sure they opened early for participating boxers. I've never heard of such an unwelcoming action. To all the out-of-towners, please don't judge all of DC's boxing community by the actions of a few.

lady name diane would not let us workout at sugar ray boxing center unless we paid. we went another local gym and they let us work out.
my coach says it will never happen again cuz we are never coming back.

Say no more... we all know who she is and we too are having problems with her. She thinks she own the center now.

DIANNA HALL is a 63 year old woman and her extra baggage James "Zeke" Thompson will both be out there by September 27th. 2008.
In fact, the word is that Zeke will be moving in with Charlene who is 43 and much closer to his age. No man wants to be pushing his
mistress around in a wheel chair.
I actually divorced my wife on her 53rd. birthday. I too got myself a younger woman, but the tables have turned and she has left me for a younger man. What goes around, comes around...

Anonymous said...

Ya'll wrong. Diane was forced by Park and Planning to make all boxers pay a "membership fee", which covers all workouts for a year. It's $35 or something like that. It's the fee for any local boxer/coach that wants to use the facility also. $35 for an entire year is ridiculously low. I understand the frustration, but they should have called first and they could have gone to any number of gyms that aren't run by MNCPPC - basically any other gym in the area.

Leave my girl Diane alone, haters. She's doing a great job. (And no, I am not affiliated with her or the SRL gym)

Anonymous said...

Diane only charges 30 a year. Other gyms charge $80.00 a month.
u got alots of nerve to complain.
u dont like it-leave. go sign up at another gym that charges out the ass. where else can u go to a gym big enough to have shows?
no where fool! She had to charge the boxers from out of town. it would be unfair to the locals if she didnt. you complainers need to leave that old lady alone. she is only doing what she is told to do.
she actually keeps the rift raft out of there. they got more money coming through now than when Hotdog
Hinton was there. he gonna be gone too soon.

What kinda hotdogs were they?

Anonymous said...

they were the kind that Sam,s club sells up the street.

Anonymous said...

Is that the guy who would turn the heat up in mid July so people would by cold drinks from him?
I hope his ass rotts in the slammer.

Anonymous said...

He was forced by park & planning to sell hotdogs and drinks. He was also told to turn the heat up. Do not blame him for doing his job.
You most likely snuck in without paying anyway.

Hinton, Nat Williams, and Gene Hughs will all be doing hard time soon. None of them are smart enough to hire a real lawyer.

Anonymous said...

Is there anyone who can take over this event to bring it back to what it used to be?

Anonymous said...

bike ryder - keep the rift raft out? there was never any there! how many shows have srl had under the new mangement? exactly none! and they call it a boxing center. give me a break! the new managment is no better than hinton. for the record it's a public facility and nobody has to leave if they don't want to.

Anonymous said...

Srl gym doesn't through ANY boxing shows - old management or new. It is a public facility that can be rented by anyone through MNCPPC (MD Park & planning). Call and findout fee and schedule yourself. So it's not up to the director to solicit events just run the gym. 30 or 35 for the year is less than 99% of most gyms. If u don't know that u r not in boxing.

silver gloves. . .who knows? Wherever Hinton wants them. He's the Region 3 Franchise owner, he can have them in Delaware if he wanted. . .

The Silver Gloves Will be held at
Keely's Boxing Center. Mr. Keely Thompson has done so much for the kids and has donated so much money of his own money that he deserves this.

I am laughing so hard that my co-workers think I am on drugs.
You guys are going to get me fired.
Me and Hinton both are going to be unemployed. I will end up borrowing some of the stolen money from Keely.

BATB Posting of the Day goes to ....

JT..

for his bike comment.

Here's a recap

".....Are you the Hargrove that drove that Western Flyer Bicycle up to Keely's in 2006?
The red bike with the damn bell on it? If so, I understand now, for you are a fruit cake if I ever seen one. You and your damn card closed pin to the frame making all that damn noise. Two left handed miniture boxing glove hanging on the handle bars. To make it worse, you had Keely autograph them.
Now Know why the called you Short Bus Hargrove. Damn Fool!!!
I know it was you calling the gym everday, breathing all hard in the telephone. They had caller ID and said something to you and you had the nerve to say that someone must of broke into the house and used your home phone. Yeah right-everyday for a fucking year!!"

yea i said it yall jus hateing cuz ms diana is such a business savvy classy women who looks like she 20 and yall 30 something year olds look like 60 or 70 but dont hate lady hate the game.....smile

Anonymous said...

all of u r just jealous of dianna
because she is pure class and she is now doing hintons job better than he ever did. dianna hall was born in 1943 and she looks like she is 40 instead of 65.
she runs sugar rays better than anyone ever did. Zeke is not her boyfriend, he is just a bussiness partner with their professional fighters gig. Didnt u guys see her on espn. she is the sexiest trainer alive. zeke has the prettiest boss in the world. trust me-they r not dating. she is over 25 years older than Zeke. even if she wasnt, zeke is not her type. zeke is the best trainer on the east coast. he used to run round one boxing gym on ritchie rd.
he is not lazy and he is always at the gym. he does not sit down like the other trainers and thats why his fighters never loose.

Anonymous said...

zeke is hairy and he sweats too much. very greasy all the time.
did you see him tuesday. OMG a total mess

Anonymous said...

I WISH I could land myself a Hunk like Zeke. I bet he is a Monster in bed. Real Kinky type of guy.
Sweat and all.
