[QUOTE="thegmanifesto, post: 360739, member: 284"] Montreal has a rich boxing history. The fighting Hilton family is from there. I used to like them when I was a young pup. Super tragic family. One died really young and Davey did some real f*cked up sh*t. [b]Real heavy boozing, boxing Irish family.[/b] Lot's of problems with the law. Just found a docu on them, I may have to watch: [MEDIA=youtube]Hs7sQo-gJg4[/MEDIA] Meet the Fighting Hiltons. Out of 5 brothers, all 5 have been amateur boxers, 4 have been professional. Their great grandfather, grandfather and father were all boxers. Their father was Canadian champion for 10 years and was an acquaintance of Ali. Matthew (32 (24 KO)-3 (1KO)-2) was a beast, a pure powerful slugger. He beat Buster Drayton to win the IBF junior middleweight title in an underrated war. He defended his title twice. He went on to fight for the WBO middleweight title, but lost. Amateur record = 108-0 Davey Jr (41 (26KO)-2 (0KO)-2) may have been the best fighter out of the bunch. Unfortunately, he was the most crazy, deranged to the point of raping his own daughters. He has been Middleweight Canadian champion, no. 1 ranked welterweight contender and WBC super-middleweight champion of the world. Jail time ruined him. Amateur record = 133-2 Alex (37 (23KO)-11 (7KO)-0) never became world champion, but he has been Canadian middleweight champion. Amateur record = 104-1 Stewart (4 (1KO)-0-0) had a short lived professional career. Amateur record = 60-7 Jimmy never turned professional. Amateur record = 6-1 Recapitulation : 5 brothers who had great amateur careers, 4 of which turned professional, 2 world champions (jmw IBF and smw WBC), 2 Canadian middleweight champions.
