    its sad they had to sell the gym
    (joe fraziers gym)
    cause joe was sick but hopefully the new owners wont tear it down

    I've met Oscar De La Hoya during the week of his fight with Oba Carr, in 1999 I believe it was.

    Evening though he's a cherry picking *** these days, he's good to the fans. Very humble, and always willing to chit chat and sign autographs.

    Which boxer I would like to meet, oh man ... to long to list.

    My younger brother sparred with Choi at Amir Khan's gym in Bolton where Choi was preparing for his fight with Derry Matthews. Turned up at one of my brothers amatuer fights too.

    Decent guy.

    When I see a thread like this, it warms my heart thinking how many greats, near-greats and flops I've met since the early 1940s.

    I did forget to mention, that I met Marvin Hagler. Well, it was not a good meeting. I mentioned this before when I first joined ESB. I was just about to get into my car while I was in Boston (New England Aqurium) and a guy looked like he was staring at me. He was walking with one of his kids. My girlfriend told me "don't you know you that is". Since she works at the Aqurium. It was just a split second just when I was going to tell him what the 5$#@ he is staring at. I melted in my car and drove away. I know they can't throw a punch at you, but who is going to take that chance. Espceially, if he is with his kid.

    I sat with Joe talking in his office for about 40 minutes one day in the summer of 2005...looking at the big pictures of him and Ali on the wall, it was kind of surreal
