I had the honor of meeting Big Salt at my gas station recently, had a great conversation with him and he pointed me to this video. Can't wait until he comes back in so we can talk more about this victory!
Your pops is amazing, if he had turned pro he'd been a major force in the heavyweight division and probably household name. Nonetheless, he fought one of the best, Riddick, in his prime and beat him 4 times, wow!
Too bad Robert didn`t turn pro in order to make some generational wealth for this family. Can you imagine if Eddie Futch trained him as a pro ? He would of easily became world champion. Salters came from one of the toughest boxing teams in Olympic history.
