That's cool. He's defintely a fighter that I would like to meet. The guy was a great amateur & a good fighter. I think he won a gold medal too. He was a tall middleweight.My man Andrew.....We go way back. I still speak to him pretty often. He's doing well enough, lives in Texas now and is running an amateur program. GREAT guy, one of my best friends in the game and when we were amateurs, before I got to the top levels, when he was the MAN in US Amateur boxing, he really took me under his wing. I never forgot that about him.Comment

He was the only USA Gold Medal winner in 1988 and was the next big thing until he was matched with Czyz at 175. Czyz was thought to be done and he commenced to schooling Maynard and stopping him. Maynard should have never hooked up with Ray Leonard, imo that was his downfall and he was not seasoned enough before fighting Bobby Czyz, and I think that fight ruined him.Comment

Yeah I remember the Czyz fight & when I was a kid & I thought that he wasn't ready for such a veteran yet. If I remember correctly he was the NABF champ but had like 13 or 14 fights. Hey Ice do you remember this fight???He was the only USA Gold Medal winner in 1988 and was the next big thing until he was matched with Czyz at 175.

Drew won the Olympics at 178 back in 1988. I think as a pro it was Mike Sedillo that he beat for the NABF crown. Czyz was a BIG step for him at the time they fought, kind of like Hamsho was for the young Czyz whenTHEYfoughtComment

The Roy Jones olympic final in 1988 might very well be the single worst decision in boxing history, amateur or proComment
