1997 (Israel, Tel-Aviv). I made my first Israeli National Champion, Anton Amirov, 147 lbs (67 kg).
1997 England, Birmingham The president of the Israeli Boxing Association, William Shahada, sent me to the European Championships as the head coach of the Israeli National Team. When I got back from England, Roman Greenberg, a 16 year old Israeli prospect moved into my apartment from Tel-Aviv. Our goal was to prepare for the Cadet Europe Championships the following year, and to bring Israel it's first gold medal from a major international championship. I had to work on the kid's psychology. He was knocked out badly in a club show when he was only 15 under his former coach who made him box an international level 25 year old man. Most coaches thought he was done after that KO.
1998 (Latvia, Yurmala) - Roman Greenberg 178 lbs (81 kg) came within a couple points of winning the gold against a Russian in the finals of the Cadet European Championships. We came back to Israel with a silver medal.
