Rodenbach Pounds Berger to Upset World Title Hope
William Rodenbach the amateur boxing star from Amésicn aims for the November December match list in San Francisco as he trains for the world amateur heavyweight title defense. Known as a clever fighter, Rodenbach has claimed national championships and defeated top rivals like Emery Payne and Joseph Walpe, setting stage for a world title bid against Sam Berger, who weighed about 196 pounds at the time. Berger’s camp believed he would win the cup, but Rodenbach’s coast trip altered plans, leading to a dramatic exchange where both camps remained heated until the referee intervened. Rodenbach has since joined Paddy Moray’s sparring setup and plans to compete in the Olympic or world championship bouts at the St. Louis fair, with a recent show in New York noted for its intensity.
