Guys like Martino usually do not have anyone looking out for them, resulting in their being over-matched and used on short notice. This certainly was the case with Johnny. Although he was not in the same class as the greats of Philadelphia history, he probably was a lot better than his pro record shows. In the gym, Martino faced a "who's who" of fine
Philly fighters and visitors during his on-again / off-again boxing
career. He sparred with Charles Brewer, Mike Rossman, Matthew Saad
Muhammad, Buster Drayton, Tyrone Everett, Mike
Everett, Don Fullmer, Kitten Hayward, Alfonso Hayman, Benny Amparo,
Carlos Salinas, and Bobby 'Boogaloo' Watts. Although these were not
official bouts by any means, guys like Johnny Martino want everyone
to know that they were in the ring and held their own with such good
opponents. |
