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...

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..."

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.

Nigel Benn , the dark destroyer

It was in a nightclub in Liverpool were he was the guest dj for the night , he had a stream of babes hanging around the mixing decks while he did an amazing job of mixing the sounds like a house pro at Ibeza ,

a bit later on I psyched myself to approach him while he was taking a break from the decks and chatting to a photographer :

Me : hiya NIgel , I just want to say what a honour this is for me to....

Nigel : yeah hello , fack me its hot in ere innit ( shakes my hand and laughs )

Me : err yeah it is ( awkward moment ) err cheers Nigel, see ya later

Nigel : yeah cheers man .

what a dick head I must have seemed to him , ah well .
