    carlos palomino won his first amature title at 23, so was he about 20 or 21 when he started boxing?

    Whats this rant all about?

    Cotto20, a poster who was recently banned, posted the EXACT SAME THREAD a couple of weeks ago.

    I don't know who Qawi is and have only been watching boxing for 2 minutes? You're just clutching at straws now.

    oh yeah and I've sparred **** loads at PRO gym but have I ever competed. Nope.

    What has this got to do with me pulling you up on obviously being a previously banned poster? Are you gonna' try and intimidate me, cause trust me it won't work.

    Him and his brothers would go to bars and duke it out with other kids for food. He also wrestled a bit, but never took up any formal boxing training until 1969.
