        I'd take any of those jobs. I wanna be a fighter though.

        I wonder how you become a boxing promoter. Some school for that? lol

          ahahah.

          i forget exactly which fight this quote came after. i think it was chavez jr.


          "That's how a champion fights. THAT'S HOW A CHAMPION FIGHTS!"

          and jr just barely acknowledged his fatass and looked away..

          yes. it feels good to talk about other fat people. taht way i feel less fat.

            this was pretty good read on promoting

            The difference between a skilled boxer you've never heard of and a skilled boxer named Muhammad Ali is often a really good promoter.




            right now im a fighter but im trying to further progress my knowledge to get involved with training or managing or something close to the ring where i can build a roster of fighters and a community/local gym and play corners i dont have the voice of a promoter and im no don king but im looking in to promoting.

                  Be the boring fighter that floyd is, and try to take easy fights with older fighters and ignore the younger ones.

                    Well, I am a woman so I guess I could only be a ring girl. Too pretty to fight! Although, Laila Ali is pretty.
