"Looking at his record online, I saw a chain of 11 consecutive victories," he wrote. "Then suddenly some losses and a career ending DQ at Madison Square Garden."

When his grandfather's brother fell ill of a few years, he decided to finally reveal what led to the disappearance of the boxing career of this pro.

It turns out that every time his grandfather has won, the crowd has lost a lot of money and has become a problem.

"He talked about a moment before a fight where the members of the crowd entered the locker room and told my grandpapers that he was going to lose, otherwise his family would be in danger," he writing. "I'm not sure what the results of these fights were, but my uncle claims that my grandpapers refused to lose. Yet, when the big fight at MSG arrived, he suddenly told his coach that He retired.

There, it was, my grandpapers as a young gag in New York on the cover of This boxing magazine. I have never seen this before. I spent the next hours reading through all the items and feel proud. This cat was good blood. He had a career away and that made me sad. But I appreciated why he stopped. "

He made copies of newspaper cuts and magazines and framed the originals, giving them to his mother of his birthday. As we could expect, she cried.

"I'm sure she had a few of the same emotions I had. But it was his father. She had never seen these magazines and articles either."

Now, he retains framed copies in his "Mancave". It is sad that his boxing career was to end because of such tragic circumstances, but it is also a testimony of his grandfather, a man who put his family first.
