I’m bettting on the Jew…

It was a good week for Jewish boxing. Both Dmitriy “The Star of David” Salita and Roman Greenberg battled tougher than usual opponents but – blessed is our God -both fighters came out on top.

Salita’s fight against “Red Hot” Robert Frankel was a tough one and although he didn’t knock is opponent out, he was awarded a unanimous decision by the judges. His record now stands at 24-0 (14 KO’s).

After a challenging first round Greenberg regained control and there was no return for “Comeback Kid” Kendrick Releford.

Both boxers are becoming more and more high profile not because of their Jewish backgrounds but because they are actually good fighters.

Will the success Salita and Greenberg begin to influence throngs of Jewish youth to return to the sport where the people of the book once dominated?
