I came across him by accident and I never bothered to look at his video until last night. After watching some of his video I was shocked at how fun he is to watch! I just want to plug him as he is from East Los. "Walter Sarnoi received a Bachelors of Science in Finance from Northern Michigan University in 2007 on a full-ride scholarship granted by the US Olympics Committee. He also attended East Los Angeles College where he earned an Associates of Arts degree in Liberal Arts. Born in Monterey Park, Sarnoi was raised by a Mexican family. His mother was endlessly away at work in order to raise a family as a single-parent. Because of his diverse background, Sarnoi is now able to speak various languages, including English, Spanish, and Thai (and currently learning Mandarin). He seeks to be a positive influence for the younger generation. In the 2009, he plans to continue making guest appearances at different non- profit foundations, such as 10-20 club & Boys & Girls Club to assist with troubled youth."

Nice post, seems like a standup guys with good values that has something different to offer other than just his ring smarts.
gotta love how his right hand stays glued to his chin when he throws his left. A very hard thing to do consistantly but he's got it down.
No he is full Thai...he was raised by a Mexican family while his mother worked long hours as a nurse, and they taught him Spanish. Boxing wise he was bred at E Heredia Gym in East LA.
I just read that he will be fighting March 5th at the Pechanga Casino on the ESPN friday night fights event...this will be a good step up for him i think
