BIG time boxing returned to Philadelphia with a bang. It was the sound of hometown
hero Meldrick Taylor hitting the floor.
Twice!
But Meldrick, a Philly fighter, wasn't about to get "dissed" on his home turf. When
the gala night was finally over, the WBA belt was stil securely wrapped around the
homeboy's waist. Glenwood "The Real Beast" Brown came close — perilously
close — but not quite close enough.

widow, but what had happened was that I was
captured, placed in a Prisoner of War camp, from
which I escaped, arriving back in England just as the
war ended." But more of that later.
