It's sad to say but, most people who get on here and write negative comments about the beltway boxers are from this same region

Two words for Gary Russell, Jr.

The first is MICHAEL and the second is SAM

So then Gary can be in the same conversation as Jason Collins, Michael Sam, and Orlando Cruz.

You are so right, and not only that, they are of the same skin color. I am bi- racial and it troubles me to see how my other half hate on each other.

Bro Cliff Wise el said...

that is so right I am wondering why their is so much hate

Tim pP. said...

There is only one way you would know that

Tim pP. said...

I say if you don't like the man, then go over there to the Ukraine to get on the tip of the opponent for his next fight

Cindy said...

It's true that Jason Collins, Michael Sam, and Orlando Cruz are all in the same conversation but anonymous has just been added to the list. They all made their way out by accusing another man.

Gary oughta go ahead and come out. Everybody know hes gay. Hes definitely better than Cruz in boxing. And Collins was a nobody in basketball. Sam will be okay football player. But Gary will be the man in boxing and one of the best in the game.

Hello Mr. Digital, I wanted to let you know of a young and aspiring fighter named Amelia Moore. She trains at Club One Fitness, and is the Novice Golden Gloves DC Champ.

She's 10 and 1 and represents the Beltway's best hope at getting a medal in the Olympics.

Currently, shes trying to raise funds to make it to the GG Women's Nationals in Florida in July. Below is a link to her funding page

There are so many haters toward The Russell Family. Yes, Antonio hurt his shoulder in the tournament,but he stay in it an made it to the final, Now anyone who watch the match against Ruben Villa on youtube can clearly see that Antonio won the bout.He carry the entire fight the Cali kid only fought in spots and didn't do a lot until the last half of rd 3..The standing 8 count was BS because the punch he threw didn't even land clean.If this was a Pro fight Antonio would've won every rounds. SO stop being a haters in give this family their credit. All of the Russell's young man are well train in the sport of boxing!! In fact Antonio and Antuanne was the only DC fighters from the DMV team sent to the Tournament to make it to the final....

It was a ridiculous standing 8 count call by the referee if the "one" punch landed or not. Antonio was not even close to being in any trouble by the punch. And yes, I do agree w/ you that Antonio clearly won the bout. It's obvious that officials and that includes the referee had their own agenda against Russell family.

I come on this blog site to hear about the latest news and results of the beltway area boxers, not to hear gossip and rumors. My ex- boyfriend used to get on blog sites and accuse others of being gay and I later found out that it was he that is gay. Whoever " anonymous" is needs to check himself cause real men don't go on blog sites to spread rumors.

Andy of VA said...

I wouldn't waste my time responding to that dude cause ain't nothing gay about Russell, jr. I know him personally and ain't nothing gay about him. Haters will say anything about someone hits them in their mouth. We all know who the real gump on here is

Dave said...

Hey Gary, where can I view that Antonio Russell fight? I wanna judge for myself.

Gary Digital Williams said...

The fight may be on YouTube but I don't know.
