How many of you attended this "Emergency Meeting" ?  Two members from each LBC were flown out to Chicago to  
hear about changes to the governance of USA Boxing. . Joe Souza and I flew to Chicago to hear some bullshit about
what HAD to be done. The picked us up at the airport, went to a hotel a few blocks away for a few hours then we were
back in San Antonio before the day was over. They basically forced us to vote YES to these new changes. Why do I
say forced? Here is what was said:
August 19, 2006
We have the following options:

We can reject the USOC governance mandate and we will be decertified as the
Amateur Boxing NGB

We can accept this new governance structure and the USOC will begin to fun the
organization

If we choose not to accept the governance structure we can fight decertification in
court. However, we will be out of money as an organization by September and our
organization will CEASE TO EXIST
This is how bullies play that game. Wait until the shit hits the fan then force you into whatever system they have put
in place. Below you will find the letters that were sent to our LBC. I received a copy of these letters and NEW Bylaws
before departing to Chicago. Click on link to take a up close look the BS we were told.
