Damn its a sad day in Boxing. I spent a couple months in the Caribbean and they live off the land, ocean, and they carry around Machettes. And they are all jacked AF Rip Champ
Another fine fighter gone. What a sad week this has been for boxing. Will always remember him for giving some exciting fights win or lose. A real blood and guts type fighter. RIP Champ.
Oh man. I literally just left Jamacia this morning. Bramble was a fun guy to watch. Big George and Livingston both came from the humblest of beginnings but both went on to make the most of their lives. God bless both of them and their families.
Ah, no! One of the first fights I remember watching was him beating Mancini! He helped start my love of the sport. RIP to the weird voodoo man we all loved.
When I was a kid, he was one of the dudes that got me into watching boxing. Eccentric Rasta with an exciting style, very of the time in the 80's, and on free TV.. The hook was set in no small part because of him. And it hurt to watch his career drag on and him come back to earth and become a trialhorse. RIP, my man. You had days that were on fire, more than most men can say.
RIP Livingstone Bramble he had a short peak but it was very memorable one with classic fights vs Ray Mancini, Tyrone Crawley. And at one point he was considered one of the best P4P fighters in the world I believe amongst the top 3. Even past his best he had a very good fight vs Oba Carr that I thought he should've won. Top 5 best switch hitters of all time alongside the likes of Marvin Hagler they both looked so natural doing it.
Short peak, possibly overrated if you think he's great,but he had the materials. If that Chapo bomb didn't hit him he would be one of the finest till his career ends, farewell.
