The regional championships will be held in waldorf or baltimore or the district of columbia or anywhere besides Virginia.
The golden gloves have been manipulated by maryland and the district for many years.
Virginia fighters never get past the regional level.there are no judges from virginia there, and if there are their not allowed to judge when a virginia fighter is fighting.about all they get to do is keep time or something.
Corrupt corrupt.

The reason Virginia does not have anyone in the Regionals is because they do not partipate the was they should. If Va would put more boxers in the Golden Gloves-they would then have a better chance at winning. I do know that all the judges from SAA and PVA are absolutely honest when it comes to judging fights. Furthermore, you have 5 judges, do you actually believe that it is a conspircasy against Va. Wake up ASSHOLE! If not I will wake you up-I wear a size 12 1/2 Timberland and will plant it where the sun doesnt shine. Dont you ever come on here againg calling people cheats. These judges are decent hard-working honest people. (Except for three that I know of) Anyway they are volunteers and we do not need to hear your bullcrap early this morning. Train your boxers better and get them over here and sign them up. Have Jimmy Dang A Lange bring them over in his 1978 Blazer.
(Cheapskate if I ever seen one)
By the way when u drive over to the show this friday, take a large hose and clamp it on your exhaust pipe, stick the other end through your rear passenger window and start driving over. All your worries will be gone by the time you get here. Plus you will save gas money....

Greetings
I don't think I will make it down to the gloves but the show looks hot this year. I can't wait to see the outcome of these fights this weekend. I am especially looking forward to the 141 and the 152 bouts. Both Womack and Stevenson are fighters I know well. Thomas Williams from Charles Mooney Academy fought so well out in Colorado and really represented us well in the USA nationals. He will be hard to beat.
Also there is the rematch between Nick Kisner (Club One) vs. Alex Guerrero (Main Street Gym). Nick was the winner of the first fight but it was mad close. Hey, its going to be a great night of boxing. Chin from the honeycomb boxing gym.
