    I would love to speak to Duran about No Mas. I read in his biography that he never actually said "No Mas", he said something which roughly translates as "I'm not playing with this *****", as though he was not admitting he was unable to compete with a dancing Leonard but disgusted and intolerant of Leonard's conduct. I'd like to hear an explanation from the horse's mouth, from my favourite fighter of all-time.

    Great question. I would ask Ray Robinson what his work out regiment was, and I'd ask Jack Dempsey just how he found the power and ferocity to destroy Willard in such a violent way.

    Would be interesting asking Burley a few questions about his career.

    I would ask Oscar what he thinks it means to be a good man?

    I would ask Naseem why he retired when he did?

    I would have loved to had a moment with Jack Johnson and talk about what made him such a driven individual and if any , who did he admire as a boxer.. Jack always seemed fearless, emotionless and unmoved in a time when a black man could get lynched for doing a lot less than what he was running around doing, he was a very extra ordinary man.. Jack was not the most exciting fighter around, but he was one of the most notorious and flambouyant.......
     
  15. I would ask Marvin Hagler why he didn't push for a rematch with Leonard:huh Hagler would have made an easy 10 million but just said **** it and retired..
