    I met Tony Bellew shortly after the first Haye fight
    Seemed like a proper respectful guy

    Lots. Have been lucky to become friends with many. I suppose the most famous/popular I can count as friends would be Tito Trinidad and Roberto Duran. There’s Olivares, Zárate, Jofre, Spinks, Fenech, Little Red too. All great people. Tito is about the nicest person anyone could hope to meet. Some who werent world champs but worth pointing out as great people like Yaqui Lopez and Frank Duarte too.

    Have also spent good time with Sugar Ray Leonard, Holmes, Chavez, Carlos Ortiz, Gomez, and many others. Have met Pacquaio but only briefly.
