Promoter Russell Peltz on 50 years in boxing: ‘It’s been quite a ride’
J Russell Peltz was 22 years old when he promoted his first boxing card 50 years ago at the legendary Blue Horizon. On Oct. 4, Peltz will celebrate half a century as a boxing promoter with a card at the 2300 Arena that will reflect his reputation for promoting Philly vs. Philly, no-quarters-given bouts.
The eight-fight card, promoted by Raging Babe, will feature junior welterweight Victor Padilla, of Berlin, NJ, by way of Vieques, Puerto Rico, in the main event. Padilla, who is promoted by DiBella Entertainment, is undefeated in five fights, all by way of knockout, and is considered by Peltz and others to be a future world champion. Peltz will serve as matchmaker for the event.
It has been nearly 20 years since Peltz received the Long and Meritorious Service award from the Boxing Writers Association of America and Philadelphia Sportswriters Association, followed in 2004 by his induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. While others might have considered retirement, Peltz has gone on to promote more than 150 additional events, bringing his total number of promoted shows to nearly 1,000. He has promoted or co-promoted more than 40 world championship fights.
After starting his career as sports editor of the Temple News–the daily student newspaper at Temple University–and then on the sports copy desk at the Evening and Sunday Bulletin, Peltz traded in his typewriter for the roller coaster that is professional boxing. He was dubbed “The Boy Wonder,” when he sold out the 1,346-seat Blue Horizon in his first event on Sept. 30, 1969, a night that featured a middleweight main event between Bennie Briscoe, of Philadelphia, and Tito Marshall, of Panama. The standing-room-only crowd was 1,606.
In more recent years, he’s taken Michelle Rosado (aka Raging Babe) under his wing, mentoring her and showing her the ins and outs of the boxing business with his unique brand of tough love.
“I can think of no one better to promote my 50th Anniversary Celebration,” said Peltz. “I have been able to sit in the passenger seat the last couple years while Michelle drove and I’m excited to share this special event with her.
“It seems like yesterday I was sitting outside the Blue Horizon in North Philly, selling tickets out of my car for my first card after the box office closed for the day. From there to the old Arena in West Philly, then to The Spectrum in South Philly, it’s been quite a ride. Atlantic City, Las Vegas, Europe, South America, the Orient–I cannot believe it’s been half a century.”
Rosado: “It’s an honor to put on this card with and for Russell’s 50th. He has been an incredible mentor and friend, and I think I have looked forward to this celebration of his legacy even more than he has.”
Tickets to “Peltz Boxing 50th Anniversary Celebration” are priced $50, $70 and $90. They can be purchased online at www.2300arena.com or by calling 215-758-2173 and/or 215-765-0922. Doors open at 6:30 pm and first bout is at 7:30 pm.

Medical update on 76ers’ Zhaire Smith
Philadelphia 76ers rookie Zhaire Smith is recovering well after receiving additional medical treatment for complications derived from the allergic reaction that initially required a thoracoscopy, which was performed back in September when Smith had an allergic reaction to a food product.
According to the team, his return to athletic training has yet to be determined, and as such, there is no timetable for his return to play.
Before the thoracoscopy, Smith was recovering from surgery after he was diagnosed with a Jones fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his left foot back in August.
Iverson sits out in his return to Philly; Week 4 highlights of BIG3
Former 76ers stars Allen Iverson and Julius “Dr. J” Erving made their return to Philly on Sunday. A crowd of 12,435 saw an injured Iverson coach, but not play, during the BIG3’s stop in Philadelphia.
Iverson made this announcement via Instagram before the BIG3 action:
Here are the highlights from Week 4, including the Philly faithful showing Iverson some love:
Tri-State (51) vs. 3’s Company (44)(coached by Iverson)
Power (51) vs. Ghost Ballers (44)
Trilogy (50) vs. Ball Hogs (43)

Myles Garrett goes number one to Browns
In a not so surprising move, with the number one pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Browns select former Texas A&M DE Myles Garrett. In Garrett, the Browns get what could be a dominating DE for the next 10-15, or if you believe like Warren Sapp, you might get a bust. We’ll let time take care of that one.
Should be interesting what the Browns do with the number 12 pick. We’ll find out in about a hour.
Chiefs trying to get into the top 10?
According to Ian Rapoport, the Kansas City Chiefs might be trying to get into the top 10 in the NFL Draft. At this point, the Chiefs have pick number 27. We’ll find out soon what is going to happen.
The team making the most noise right now about moving up, maybe even into the Top 10 — The #KCChiefs. Due diligence or…?

ROLL TIDE: Several players from Alabama have the chance to hear their names in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, including DT JONATHAN ALLEN, LB REUBEN FOSTER, TE O.J. HOWARD and T CAM ROBINSON.
If Alabama has a player selected in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, the Crimson Tide will tie Florida (1983-91) for the second-longest consecutive streak of players drafted in the first round since the advent of the common draft in 1967. Alabama currently has eight consecutive drafts with at least one first-round pick.
Miami (1995-2008) holds the longest streak with 14 consecutive drafts having at least one player selected in the first round.
The longest streak of consecutive seasons with a first-round pick (since 1967):

BOUNTIFUL BUCKEYES: Three Ohio State players are projected to have their names called in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft – S MALIK HOOKER, CB MARSHON LATTIMORE and CB GAREON CONLEY. In 2016, the Buckeyes had a draft-high five players selected in the first round.
If all three players are selected in the first round, Ohio State would tie Alabama (2011-12) for the fourth-most first-round picks over any two-year span since 1967. Miami is the only school with more first-round choices over any two-year span, with nine players selected from both 2001-02 and 2002-03 and 10 players drafted from 2003-04.
