CLIFTON, N.J. - Boxing champ, Bobby Czyz, is a fighter down to the last cell in his body. He's a prize fighter, but on a molecular level as well as in the ring. After having survived a horrific car crash -- where Czyz and his bodyguard/friend of 30 years were passengers in the latter's Mercedes-Benz in April of 2007, driven by an associate of the bodyguard, a crash more devastating than suffered in any professional bout -- Czyz cheated death and lived not only to walk away from his near-death injuries, but to triumph over them as stunned physicians had never before witnessed.

Bobby Czyz was one of those fighters that always gave his all in the ring.He was involved in many action packed fights.The ones that I remember were the two Prince Charles Williams fights and when he beat Sugar Ray Leonard managed Andrew Maynard. He was also a regular on free tvback in the80'.He was also a pretty good boxing announcer most remembered for his commentary in the Tyson- Holyfield fight.

I must live in a cave. I didnt hear about this. Czyz walked it like he talked it. I would put his mental toughness right next to that of Vinny Pazienza.
He broke his neck and was told he would never fight again. His reply...
"Bull****".

He was a much better commentator than Jim Gray
He is just much more intelligent and has way more respect for fighters.
Showtime is crazzy not to have him back.
They fired him for DUI but HBO didnt fire Jim Lampley even after his 2nd domestic violence charge.
