The former welterweight world champion talks about not retiring, his aid work in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquakes and why he put his career on hold to help, fighting Floyd Mayweather and how he coped with his first loss (not very well). Andre Berto was Al Haymon's first fighter that the future Hall of Fame promoter brought through, though Haymon had already worked with Vernon Forrest and Jermain Taylor, and Berto has had a fine career, boxing the likes of Victor Ortiz, Shawn Porter, Robert Guerrero, Juan Urango and many more. Berto was in fine form, talking about highs and lows with real warmth and honesty.

Then it's onto the events in Florida, which hosted Sandy Ryan-Jessica McCaskill and Conor Benn's comeback, a preview of Canelo Alvarez-Jermell Charlo before we close with a step back in time to Kelly Pavlik's thrilling victory over Jermain Taylor.Through all of that we attempt to answer the following questions:- Is there a route back for Joyce?- Can Zhang go one step further and topple one of the leaders?- Was Sandy Ryan robbed of victory?- What to make of Conor Benn's return?- Is Canelo ripe for an upset loss?- Is Charlo the man to inflict it?- How did Pavlik survive that second round?Please rate, review and subscribe!

My guest today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy is Mr. Ray Rodgers: a boxer, coach, cutman, administrator, three-time Hall of Fame recipient and tireless community leader. If he wasn't known as the world's best cut man in the boxing industry, he'd probably be known as a standup comedian, because he is funny. A “cutman” is the magic man in the corner of the boxing ring, administering trade secrets for healing his athlete. A bad cut above the eye or on the scalp can split open like a ripe tomato, creating a stream of blood, and making it almost impossible to see. This calamity can cost the boxer his fight. A good cutman is so important to a boxer's success that Mr. Rodgers has been flown all over the world to aid and assist during boxing matches. You may remember him as the cutman for Little Rock's former Olympic medalist, Jermain Taylor. Find out what it means to be a cutman, how Ray went from being a college football player to a well-respected boxing coach, and why he thinks amateur boxing is the best way to teach young people confidence and self-discipline, both in life and in the boxing ring.

And, more importantly, how does Prograis, who's talented, regroup from this for a bigger fight.Next up, is the Garcia/De La Hoya lawsuit filed by the hall of fame promoter on Friday afternoon.

DILLIAN WHYTE is struggling to come to terms with his one-sided loss to Tyson Fury, so much so that he's screaming foul play and demanding a rematch. It seems unlikely he'll get his wish, even if Fury does fight on. But if he doesn't, what does the legacy of The Gypsy King look like?From Wembley Stadium to Madison Square Garden, where Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano collide in a historic fight in New York. But who wins and how? The same question applies to another top notch scrap, this time in Las Vegas, where Shakur Stevenson and Oscar Valdez will duke it out for super-featherweight supremacy.And if that wasn't enough, we go back to 2009 in This Week In History for Carl Froch's dramatic victory over Jermain Taylor.If you have time, please leave a review. Thanks for choosing The Opening Bell!

Former world middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik hit the heights after back-to-back wins over Jermain Taylor. He was red hot, then, and he had a superb career with 40 wins against just 2 defeats. He was a big puncher who was involved in a number of fun fights. There was a damaging loss up in weight against Bernard Hopkins before Pavlik dropped back down to 160lbs to defend his titles and after losing to Sergio Martinez he tried to make a fresh start in California but the moment had gone. Certainly, after a proposed fight with Andre Ward fell through he saw nowhere else to go. Here, Pavlik talks about his life and reputation in Youngstown, his big fights, the fights he could have had against the like of Froch, Calzaghe and Kessler, his legacy and his start in boxing in a candid and frank interview.

Today's episode is about Jermain Taylor an American former professional boxer who competed from 2001 to 2014. He remains the most recent undisputed middleweight champion, having won the WBA (Undisputed), WBC, IBF, WBO, Ring magazine, and lineal titles in 2005 by beating Bernard Hopkins, and in doing so ending Hopkins' twelve-year reign as middleweight champion. This made Taylor the first, and to date, only male boxer in history to claim each title from all four major boxing sanctioning organizations in a single fight. He once again defeated Hopkins six months later, making him the only fighter to have defeated Hopkins twice. He would also later hold the IBF middleweight title for a second time.

GOLDEN GLOVES/SILVER GLOVES/CUTMAN Ray Rodgers, who was born in Oklahoma but grew up in Conway, was inducted into the Silver Gloves Hall of Fame in 2001, the Golden Gloves Hall of Fame in 2002 and the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame in 2007. The late Billy Bock, a 1996 Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame inductee who was a well-known amateur boxer and later was among the pioneers of high school baseball in the state, told the Arkansas Democrat in 1990: “If it weren’t for Ray Rodgers, there would not be boxing left in Little Rock.” Silver Gloves is for amateur fighters ages 10-15. Golden Gloves is for amateur fighters ages 16 and older. Based in part on the Golden Gloves’ tie back to the Chicago Tribune, newspapers long have been among the main sponsors of amateur boxing events. The New York City Golden Gloves tournament, which has been around for 85 years, is sponsored by the Daily News. Rodgers told an interviewer in 2008: “It has a natural attraction to kids who are basically adventuresome and want to do something no one else does. That’s a lot of it. The dynamics of it hooked me in the fifth grade, and I’ve never been out of it one day. “In boxing, as in life and everything else, desire is half the deal. … I’m a great believer in amateur boxing. I think it’s one of the greatest sports ever devised. It’s a cliche, but it’s true. In boxing, you don’t have anybody to hand off to or to lateral or pass it off to. You’re on your own, brother. “The only discipline that lasts is self-discipline. You can stand a kid in a corner and whip his butt with a paddle. But once he learns self-discipline and the desire to do better in the ring, that sticks with him all his life.” Jermain Taylor is the most prominent example of the hundreds of boys (now men) Rodgers has helped through the years. Born in Little Rock in 1978, Taylor and his three younger sisters were abandoned by their father when the future champion was 5. Taylor began boxing at age 13 with Ozell Nelson as his trainer. Taylor’s Olympic bronze medal came in 2000 and his professional boxing debut was on Jan. 27, 2001, at Madison Square Garden against Chris Walsh. As noted in yesterday’s post, Rodgers has served as the cut man in Taylor’s corner throughout Taylor’s professional career. Taylor once said of Rodgers: “He’s the type of guy who comes in the dressing room and makes you feel comfortable. I’ve never seen him mad, not one time, and I’ve known him since I was 12. I’ve never seen him with a mean face. He’s the type of guy who always wants to see you smiling.” Rodgers’ father, who worked for 49 years for an oil company that eventually became part of Mobil, moved the family from Oklahoma to Conway so he could serve as a pump station engineer in Arkansas. Young Ray was already addicted to boxing at the time of the move. Ray Rodgers’ office at the Golden Gloves Education Center, which is adjacent to the Junior Deputy baseball fields just off Cantrell Road in Little Rock, now serves as sort of a museum of this state’s boxing history. There is, for example, a photo of Bock and Rodgers in 1959 at the state AAU boxing tournament with Miss Arkansas in between. “We were her escorts,” Rodgers says. Famous names in Arkansas business, sports and politics crop up as you look at the programs and bout sheets Rodgers has collected through the years. For instance, Buddy Coleman of Little Rock was the state AAU boxing chairman one year. Rodgers delights in talking about his 14-year amateur boxing career, delivering pithy quotes such as this one: “My left jab was so good the judges thought the other guy was sucking my thumb.” The Arkansas River Valley — from Fort Smith all the way down to Little Rock –was a boxing hotbed in those days. Rodgers tells of going across a low-water bridge to make it to a boxing tournament at Oark (not Ozark!) in the Ozark Mountains north of Clarksville. Places like Clarksville and Coal Hill produced good amateur boxers. The Subiaco Abbey, built in 1878 and associated with the Benedictine Order, was the home of many talented boxers. Wherever amateur tournaments were held across the state, you knew the boys from Subiaco Academy would be there and compete hard. Rodgers’ home ring was at the National Guard Armory in Conway, where he boxed for a coach known as “Slow John” Cole. Rodgers went by the nickname “Butterball.” He continued to box competitively through graduation from Conway High School and Arkansas State Teachers College, now the University of Central Arkansas. “I had deceptive speed in those days,” Rodgers says. “I was slower than I looked.” At age 16, Rodgers also began coaching younger boxers. In 1958, he sent his first boxer to the national Golden Gloves tournament in Chicago. Rodgers graduated from college in August 1960, becoming the first member of his family to earn a degree. He got married two weeks after graduation and moved to Little Rock to take a job with Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. Rodgers fought his last fight in 1961 at the Mid-Arkansas Golden Gloves Tournament, but a lifetime of being involved in boxing was just starting. He has worked with young boxers at various locations through the years, even using a gym that Gary Hogan, who loves the sport as much as Rodgers, once operated in downtown Little Rock. In 1988, Rodgers raised private funds so he could transform a metal building next to the Junior Deputy baseball complex into a gym. It has been the home of the Ray Rodgers Boxing Club ever since. In 2009, he turned the adjacent building into the Golden Gloves Education Center so his boxers would have a quiet place to study. Rodgers has brought a number of legendary boxers to Little Rock through the years to promote the sport and help him raise money. Ali visited in 1990. Joe Frazier and Floyd Patterson also have visited the state’s capital city at Rodgers’ invitation. Rodgers has had his share of tragedies. In 1987, his wife Sally, a constant presence with him at boxing tournaments, died of breast cancer. His current wife, Carole, whom he married in December 2005, now helps him run amateur tournaments. Rodgers’ daughter Dawn battled brain cancer for 11 years before passing away in 2005. Last year, Rodgers finally shut down his business, Mid-South Drywall. “I’m not getting any younger,” he says. On one wall of Rodgers’ office is a tribute to Stan Gallup, the longtime Golden Gloves executive director who died in February 2009 while accompanying the Kentucky Wesleyan basketball team (his son was the school’s athletic director) to an away game It says “Stan Gallup, 1922-2009, Father of Modern Golden Gloves.” Rodgers calls Gallup “a mentor.” I happen to think Arkansas’ own Ray Rodgers has just as much a right as Gallup to that title of “Father of Modern Golden Gloves.”
