Boxing History & True Crime - The Deadly Downfall of Rick ”Elvis” Parker

Rick "Elvis" Parker might not be a memorable name to many boxing fans, but he should be. In the 1980s and 90s, Parker dealt with George Foreman, Jimmy Young, Bert Cooper and others before he was killed by a fighter in his stable in 1995.
It's a wild tale of fight setups, double-crossing and, unfortunately, murder.

Pernell Whitaker vs Diosbelys Hurtado Revisited

When you think Pernell Whitaker, you generally think defense, not brutal, late-rounds knockouts. But against Diosbelys Hurtado in 1997, that's what we got.
