This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Luke Dormehl (21 August 2022). "Meta wants to supercharge Wikipedia with an AI upgrade". Digital Trends. As an illustration, a recent Wikipedia article on Blackfeet Tribe member Joe Hipp described how Hipp was the first Native American boxer to challenge for the WBA World Heavyweight title and linked to what seemed to be an appropriate webpage. However, the webpage in question mentioned neither boxing nor Joe Hipp.

Considering that it was, perhaps sadly, the biggest fight of Hipp's career, there should be more discussion of his fight with Seldon. On that night, Seldon made Hipp's face look like a hamburger.

- lol. Tyson said that Seldon did that to Hipp in the build up promos to Tyson v Seldon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.53.46.142 (talk) 13:16, 2 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

POV Language

I tried to remove this POV language: "The rampant discord and ennui that characterizes the life of boxers after their peak years has proven too much for Hipp as he continues to fight past middle age. It serves as a stark example of the sad epilogue to the story of most professional prize fighters" but BoxingWear continues to revert the edit. Perhaps he can explain why this is proper language here.

His First "Clean" Knockout

Are you kidding? Watch the fight with Tommy Morrisson. Hipp was absolutely knocked flat. What a freakin' joke. Change that.

This page was redesigned at the edge.
