    Maybe so:lol: Cause ive heard others say he was cool. I was gonna approach him and when he saw that i noticed him he gave me a mean old mad dog look:twisted: and walked away:lol:. He is the only fighter that comes to mind that wasnt cool in person. Oh yeah and Famoso Hernandez thought i was mad dogging him but i was just spacing out LOL when he noticed that i didnt mean nothing his kickass demeanor changed and he just started laughing LOL!!!

    Even Floyd Sr was a cool muther****a:lol: Oh yeah Roger gave me a crazy look too but after was cool when i asked him to sign my fight program, it was in Vegas after he kod some tomato can Benny Barra.

    Mike McCallum has been a favorite of mine for a while, I always thought he would have been a heaps cool, laid back guy.

    But Ive told by people that met him personally that he was a complete ****wit, to the point where other fighters in his presence were embarrassed because he was being such an arrogant dick.

    You cant pick em I guess but I guess they are human and can have bad days.

    It's hard to name only 10. Why just 10?
    Beyond 10, there's Alexis Arguello, Dick Tiger, Jersey Joe Walcott, Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles, Carlos Ortiz...and there's more..

    I've heard where he was a ***** to Hagler at a HOF event or something. Claimed Hagler ducked him. Nobody really ducked him, he just wasn't a big enough name when Hagler, Leonard, Hearns, Duran were doing their thing.
