BillsFanLevy Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 Yeah he is done, the last I heard he admitted to 3 hematoma's. But is trying to get reinstated because they all healed, but it will never happen. So I'm sad to say he's done boxing but I think he has a great career as a broadcaster....good luck joe
Frez Posted October 20, 2004 Author Posted October 20, 2004 Man, I enjoyed watching him in the ring. He seems like a really good guy. I'm sorry to hear he was cut short but I thank him for the memories! Always a fan of Baby Joe!
Hammered a Lot Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 He was in my parking lot Sunday for a meet and greet acting as a rep. for Mineo and Sapio Italian Sausage, which were very good. I did not think it was the time to ask about his boxing future. It seems that after women got their photos taken with Baby Joe they had a hard time getting back to their husbands tailgate parties. Mysterious some women's wedding bands were temporally misplaced during the photo op!!!
Tux of Borg Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 I like Baby Joe, he was always trying to bring a big fight to the Buffalo area. But his career in the US is over. I'm sure he could fight somewhere overseas but why risk it.
stevestojan Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 Thank God he stopped before he made the mistake of actually fighting anyone.
R. Rich Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 He wasn't the most talented fighter, but he was pretty decent. But, with the heavyweight division in the shambles it has been in for some time, he could have actually won a world title. Too bad.
gmac17 Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 hey, not many guys can say they retired undefeated....

R. Rich Posted October 20, 2004 Posted October 20, 2004 I dunno, Steve. Some of those 10 year olds are pretty tough.

Too bad. 77218[/snapback] Plus he made a habit of wearing either a Bills or Sabres jersey into the ring...always showed his Buffalo pride. He's a classy individual...too bad the career that he loves so much was cut short prematurely.
