Edison Miranda and Bobby Chacon. This content is protected I have a picture with Chacon as well, but i'd have to look for it.
Ray Leonard Henry Cooper Evander Holyfield Ricky Hatton Joe Calzaghe David Haye Frank Bruno Richie Woodhall Spencer Oliver Terry Marsh Colin McMillan Most were at after dinner events except Holyfield who I bumped into at Borders Bookshop at Lakeside shopping centre, Bruno was buying a sofa in a shop in Essex and Terry March was at a fair I went to. Frank Maloney banks at HSBC next door to the office I worked at. I saw him nearly every day, sometimes with a random fighter in his car.
Luisito Espinosa was nice the times I've seen him. He helped me a bit with my stance and did some mitt work with me.
he told me donny lalonde was his toughest fight..based on stage of his career and what he achieved from it....in other interviews i have always heard him say duran.. but, i wasnt pissed...he did say that... This content is protected
I used to see Zab Judah occasionally growing up. His family lived next to my half brother's side of the family Canarsie. Actually, not even occasionally...I saw him quite often over the years. I've only seen him once since he blew up in the early 2000s, though. I guess you can say I somewhat know the guy...if he saw me today, he'd be like "oh, I know you...you're...whatshisname..."
Man i love these tales keep them coming! i met Scott harrison in the pub and my mate served frank Bruno in the bank (turns out bruno was in the wrong bank lol)

I forgot Daniel Santos, he came to the bar i used to hang out when he wont the championship. Brought his belt and everything and got drunk, he was good friends with a friend of mine. Used to see him all the time around islaverde getting drunk and smoking. Another puertorrican that couldve gone farther if he really train harder instead of partying all the time. :hat
