      I met floyd mayweather on my birthday, it wasn't a present it happened just by chance. I also met david tua but we didn't really speak or anything such as that.

                Unfortunately, I have yet to meet a fighter. In fact, the only fighters I've even seen live and in person was Ismael Laguna and Carlos Ortiz in their title fight in Panama City for the latter's lightweight crown. I wasn't even at ringside and needed binoculars to see the fighters up close.

                  Tony Zale. He trained me a little, back in the day. "Speed brings power" he used to say it over and over.

                    Nothing wrong with using binoculars at a fight. I used a pair at Duran vs Hearns, better than TV closeup.

                    Shook Ernie Shavers hand.
                    Met and talked with Roberto Duran
                    Met Freddie Roach..actually he gave me a ride to work on 2 occasions.
                    Watched Ali training, in preparation for Holmes.
                    Was a regular at Larry Holmes workouts in Vegas. Total *******.
                    Bumped into SRL, who looked at me like I was homeless after I said " Hey Sugar Ray".
                    And I sparred with A guy who used to spar with Aaron Pryor. AM's.
                    Met and had a conversation with "Big" Bob Albrithe (spelling), former HW contender. He owned a pawn shop in Vegas.
                    Saw the Great Joe Louis at the statue unveiling in Caesars Palace.
