I remember
back in 1980 when Tony Baltazar was making his 13th
start against an old veteran by the name of Chuy Rodriguez,
Rodriguez was making his 43rd pro start. After the bell sounded to
end the 4th round Rodriguez hit Tony, Tony hit him back causing a
nasty cut over one of Rodriguez’s eyes. The referee called Dr. Bernhart
Schwartz up into the ring to examine the cut, the good doctor did so and he
told the referee that Rodriguez couldn’t continue the fight. When the referee
signal that the fight was over all hell broke loose. Cups full of beer and
maybe piss started raining into the ring. We jumped out of the ring before the
TD decision was announced and with cops around us we made it by the skin of our
teeth to our dressing room. We stay in the catacombs till way after the last
fight was over. We were saved to fight another day!
