Watch Ali, SRL, Hearns & Duran with grandpa. Navarette Buzz me a little bit. Followed Tyson during his Prime, Stay away from Boxing when Tyson is out of Prime, Pacquiao Brings me Back to boxing.

Not in the Ring, but Ringside last World Cup in Sacramento. Tried the Punching Bag at my cousin's house. I've found out I could be a Good Boxer but too late. Now training my Boys 6 & 4 yrs old. The 4 year old has a lot of potential. He has the attitude & the Bloodlines. Their Mom is from the island of Mindanao the same as Pacquiao Home Province.

My 4yr old video, he just turned 3 here.

Not a lefty but he has a killer instinct. Hot headed too.

 

1) 44
2) Postman
3) Ali's fights in the 70s especially those against Frazier,Foreman, Bugner, Spinks
4) Amateur record 4-3(not brilliant!!) More recently several years experience as boxing coach

NB An interesting aside is that when I was 'between jobs' I used to work on a casual basis for Mike Goodall, who is the fella you supplies the boxing rings for 90% of the pro fights held in Britain. It was only constructing the rings for shows but it paid a few bills and gave me free entry!!
