Mike Tyson , i was privelaged to have helped Mike for a few of his toughest fights.. His story is one of success , but i am sad that many see the tail end of his career as his highlight reel (**** case, Losses, drugs, divorces..) people forget that he made it out of hell to fulfill a dream and become heavyweight champ when he was only a reletive kid.. Friday Ahunanya.. I met Friday in 1995 fresh from Nigeria when he moved to an apartment in Las Vegas.. He trained in Toccos Gym in Las Vegas.. He is a very loyal friend and i have done my upmost to help him get as far as he can in his 10 years as a pro.. I have cried after tough losses and laughed in superb victories.. But i am most proud to call him one of my closest friends.. Terry Norris.. I watched him lose to Dana Rosenblatt at Foxwoods in 98 i think, i was upset when i heard him drag out an interview and slur like he was almost drunk.. i like the man... Mike Grant.. I am a friend of Dominick Guinns but known Mike a lot longer than Dominick.. When he lost to Guinn i felt happy for Guinn but so sorry for Mike , he was trying so hard to get himself on track yet it was all falling down around him.. he may never make it back to where he once was... God bless... Oh yes......... I feel bad for two friends Greg Page and G-Man , they suffered the toughest blows a fighter may ever have to.. i pray for them..
i always care for cuban boxers who defeat leaving their families and homeland behind knowing that they may never see again some of their loved ones. its just sad they are not entitled to do what any other boxer around the world can do.
And those ****ing Hoya nuthuggers screaming everytime he 'tried' to land a flurry against whitaker. Makes me want to vomit! At the same time it impressed me how pernell slipped those punches!
I felt horrible after mosley got dominated against forrest. Gatti - after the PBF fight Tyson against Lewis - what a mismatch RJJ against Johnson - for a minute i thought he died.
duddy,the first four rounds i just had to watch through my fingers. andy lee,i was literally so angry and upset he lost to brian vera,id somuch confidence in him,and in honesty still do. lewis,against rahman i couldnt help but feel absolutly ****. hatton,it was the sheer impact of him being ktfo,he was owned in the 8th and 10th in a bad way and it was so bad that my girlfriend turned to me while watching the fight and said hatton will be knocked out in the 10th,i felt so bad for him. tyson, against lewis there was only one word,pathetic,he was over the hill but the fact he still talked and acted like he was the baddest man on the planet made the ko x10 worse.
When ever I think about defensive ownage I have flash backs of that ****ing ultra combo that Pernell Whitaker dodged not once but twice. Then *** DLH going to his corner with his hands up acting like he landed them all! what a douche!
*Jermain Taylor - I was a fan of Taylor when he beat Hopkins, who I didn't like because he beat Tito ... I was upset that he lost to Pavlik ... but very happy that it was an exciting fight. *Carlos Quintana - when he lost to Cotto, I've hated Cotto every since
The way I feel about Barrera,Mosley and Jones is much different then all the other fighters out there. These guys have special places in my heart. When Johnson KOed Jones it was on my birthday and I sat there on my floor crying cause Jones was out cold it was the worst feeling I ever had as a boxing fan,my freind was amazed how into Mosley-Vargas 1 I was whenever Shane would do something good id bounce out of my chair throwing combos going thats my boy thats my boy,Barrera-Morales 3 was probablly the wildest I ever got after a decision I felt like considering the way judges where this fight could easily be a draw or they would screw Barrera like the 1st fight and when they said ....... AND NEW I started doing a ****ing spinaronie on my floor or atleast a bad verison of it.
