    but even now it's not too late to be that big star. i mean the man just had one of his biggest victories, and has been sidelined for over a year. people should be calling him out trying to fight him. he's the champ at 147.

    Oscar de la hoya seems like a nice easy-going chap.

    Yey remember i was telling you that I was there to, I was down with the press people and they had all the fans in the stands. Use to get some of those press passes cause i was friends with the Johnny Ortiz and Danny Lujan who had that Boxing show on ESPN radio. Anyways I remember that day and Chavez didnt give no one the time of day. I was trying to MAC on Dazza that day(lowrider Model):yep Im sure you know who she is:blurp
    I was a trustee at twin towers and use to hook up Lopez with extra juices when he was an inmate there. He was in a cell by himself with a sign by the door that said "Attention Deputies this inmate is world ranked proffesional boxer" :lol:

    i guess it's similar the arthur abraham and his brother. arthur's the big star and pretty nice guy, but his brother has had run ins with law from what i've heard. some said after the second miranda fight abraham's brother, alex kicked miranda on the head. ricky hatton seems like your neighbor next door who will invite you over to drink, eat, play darts, crack jokes.

    Morales has always been likable for me, he may have shown some nastiness in the Barrera fights but I think MAB just knew what buttons to press.

    Never met CHris Byrd.
    But Shanes wife seemed like a real *****, seems like nice guys always attract the ruthless bitches:lol::lol: A good way to meet lot of these guys is try and make a trip down to LA to the Yearly WBHOF banquet. I see you live in the Bay Area so it would be alot easier than going to IBHOF all the way back east.

    The fighters will talk and take pictures with you,but at the VIP is even better cause they arent being mobbed as much and its like you are at a private Party, free booze at that party.

    Met him when he fought at the Pomona Fairgrounds...saw his fight and knew he had the goods to beat Oscar. Its a shames that most of his early fight were not televised. Tough in the ring...but so calm outside

    Oscar has always been cool every time i met him, One thing about Oscar is he will stand there and sign every ones autograph despite being Mobbed more than any other fighter, Unlike Chavez who has his Entourage acting like dicks while he acts like a Big prima donna.
