Name the fighters you have met face to face

Joachim Alcine, Jean Pascal, Luisito Espinosa, and Steve Molitor are the only fighters I've met face to face.

Funny part is Alcine went to where I worked for his banking needs. Must have creeped the hell out of him when I went out of the office out of nowhere to shake his hand.

 

i'm horrible with names but i've met some guy named Angel 'insert mexican surname here'. He fought ODLH. He was watching one of the fights at the orleans casino. Very cool guy. We were standing up since we bought the cheap tix. He was like a commentator pointing out the little stuff to us. we told him, "you sound just like a boxer that would know this, do you box? yeah, I used to box, I'm Angel XXXX" then my friend was like, that dude fought ODLH. We ended up buying him a miller lite.

And I met some filipino boxer at the hard rock last year in march, april or may. He fought at the joint. don't remember his name either. Him and his handlers were walking out in the casino and I asked em, 'hey, did the filipino guy win? There's some guy in there but I don't know his name". His handlers were like, "oh, you're talking about this guy". Very nice people as always.

I offered to buy them drinks at the center bar but they had to go.

I recently met Kermit Cintron and I saw Carlos Quintana after a work out once when I used to swim next to where he used to train.

 

oh yea, I met Fernando Vargas at primm...the faaaat version. Women were still looking at him as if he was their meal ticket for a child support payment. Insane.

Ola Afolabi outside the Mayweather workout. Great guy, got a picture & autograph. Saw Floyd coming in as I was locked outside of his workout and then again as he was leaving/on the balcony.

 

See if this works; me and Gene Fullmer at Regional Golden Gloves.

I passed Audley Harrison in Lincoln's Inn, London (where all the lawyers are).

He was all dressed up in his suit so I guess he was going to court or to see his lawyer.

The thing I remember most was how enormous he seemed

I didn't go after an autograph....

 

I've met Mike Tyson back in September 2005 when he visited Kiev, and talked to him a little.
Also I've met Vitali Klitschko a little more than year ago. He's a great guy with very good sence of humour.:good
In September 2003 i've met and talked to Henry Akinwande, who was in Cedrick Fields' corner when he fought Maskaev.

 

Why was Griffin a bit of a twat? he seems alright.
