    Continue on with music and being a boxing fan and remember the more you look for a mate the harder it'll get. Let her come onto you so you can come onto her:good

    yeah, he seems very down to earth. unfortuanately he can't get the big fights. he's not even a draw in conneticut. i heard his last fight with johnson didn't do that well.

    I think a lot people, boxers or not, get misjudged based upon assumptions. For example, Cotto seems like a nice person, but some people don't like the "quiet type" perhaps there's a lack of trust, or a lack of closeness and communication. But you have to get passed that, and get to know people, and not let your preconceived notions misjudge them.

    This is a good point. It's hard to get a real grasp on the kind of person you're dealing with in about 2-3 minutes unless you're some sort of master psychologist.

    actually taver is a real nice guy despite what you see when he fights. i use to watch him and think he has the type of face you just want to hit, plus all that talking. i met him when he came to oakland to the kessler-ward fight. he was real nice, and talkative (not surprising), and signed autographs and took pics until everyone got one.

    No it was at the WBHOF after party. You dont remember Willie Jorrin? He beat Oscar Larios for the title and lost to him in a rematch he used to fight on Espn alot.
