    I rewatched Cotto-Margarito 2 a couple months ago and before the bell, Margarito was refusing to touch gloves despite Smoger's repeated instructions. When Margarito finally did, Smoger says "now you go, now you go...get the fuck out of here." He had a great no nonsense personality. I'll miss him.

    His presence reminded me of Arthur Mercante Sr. He had that look of respectability and class to him. RIP Mr. Smoger!

    It was also Steve Smolger who loved rice, because he loved being able to say he was so hungry he could eat 2,000 of something.
