    Salsanchezfan,

    Just to clarify - are you saying Bob Foster is a "dick", an "*******", and a "piece of ****" "since birth" because he said disparaging things about Michael Spinks and Virgil Hill ?

    It is obvious with all this misinformation going about in the Boxing Forum. I need to spend more time here.

    In his retirement, this former world champion decided to join the Albuquerque police and became a detective, where he would become a well known officer in Albuquerque.

    Later on, the avid autograph signer was inducted into the International Boxing Hall Of Fame.

    Nice cut and paste but it is true.

    I was there the night Bob Hazelton beat him by TKO. It was sort of a fluke actually. Hazelton caught Foster with a good right hand and Bob hurt his leg when he went down. I remember Foster's corner man shouting "We don't need this"! over and over again.

    I almost got into it with Hazelton that night. I told him he could only beat bums and has-beens. A few months later, I was there when Lucien Rodriguez stopped Hazelton in the third round.

    I met Hazelton again at the gym we worked out together for a few months until he moved to Las Vegas. I never reminded him of the night he fought Foster. He was big son of a *****. The last time I saw Hazelton was right after he lost both legs to steroid abuse. He was benching 275 at the time.

    Michael Spinks was an extremely adaptable fighter, who came out on top during one of the best 175 lb. eras in history and beat a solid number of quality fighters.

    And not only was he one of the greatest light heavys ever, but he was at one point the real heavyweight champion of the world as well.
