Did Laszlo Papp Ever Fight In OR Make Appearance In America?

He never fought as a pro in the US, that's for sure, as an amateur, I couldn't find any fight of him in the US

 

Ral Hal Gooly Gooly will be along in a minute.

 

Most of his pro fights were in Austria if memory serves me correctly. I very much doubt the communist govt. would let him fight outside Europe.

 

As a pro he never did.

 

I believe he was pretty old when he turned pro too especially by the norm back then. I realize the choice wasnt his though. Looks good on film IMO though. Saw a documentary on him that's no longer on YouTube. About the nicest humblest guy you could come across

 

Aren't you Hungarian too?

 

Part Hungarian/mostly Ukrainian

 

Ukraine must have great talent coming through

 

I've had my eye on an amateur named Aleksandr Khyzhniak. Looks promising
Still waiting for Sirenko to step it up. Spending alot of time in South Africa doesnt seem to be helping but hes young

 

What division is he?

 

75 kg ..... Sirenko is a pro HW

 

Do you think one can pick up a belt?

 

Hes got a pro style so that's a plus. If he turns pro I'll have a big interest in him. Sirenko seems to be a very good puncher.
