(JTA) — Jewish welterweight Cletus "The Hebrew Hammer" Seldin won by a third-round knockout, bringing his record to 9-0.
For Seldin, 26, his knockout of Carl “The Assassin” McNickles of Chicago on Saturday in Westbury, N.Y., was the sixth of his pro boxing career. The East Side Boxing blog calls Seldin a Long Island fan favorite.
Seldin told the Algemeiner website in an interview earlier this year that he wears a Star of David on his trunks and on his jacket.
