Hiram to enter boxing ring


From the Daily News:

Disgraced ex-state Sen. Hiram Monserrate has agreed to climb into the ring to raise money for kids with autism.

His hoped-for opponent is state Sen. Eric Schneiderman, the Manhattan Democrat who led the charge to oust him.

Schneiderman, who is running for state attorney general, wants no part of the Nov. 22 bout - even if it's for a good cause.

"I've watched the video of him assaulting Karla Giraldo enough times. I don't have any interest in watching him hit anyone else - including me.

"This is a guy who battered a woman. I am not going to a shooting competition with the Son of Sam, either."

I think the National Organization for Women should chip in a few dollars and hire a famous heavyweight champion to go at him. Bribe the cornerman so the fight isn't stopped either.

He has agreed to his punishment and he is using his notoriety to raise money for a good cause.

Whether Eric Scheiderman likes it or not, Monseratte was acquitted of battering his girlfriend. That verdict will stand for all time. He was convicted of one misdemeanor charge of dragging her forcefully through their lobby on the way to get help. Big deal.

There are a number of guys at Willets Point that would be happy to take Schneiderman's place.

I'd love to punch the snot out of him. Maybe that would knock some sense into him. Hope he fades away into the sunset.

I would like to get him, but only if they let me take a sock full of ball bearings into the ring and swing away.
