I hear you can still find Joe messing around at old junkyards in downtown Philly. One day I'm going to take some time off and go looking. It's funny, almost everybody in my family has seen or met him. But none of them followed boxing or his career the way I have. They don't understand how deeply appreciative of him I am.Comment

jesus christ your only just old enough to buy a drink! fair play to you mate, you obviously know your onions!I really wish I could remember all of the guys that I've met. It's just been a blur this last year and a half, I can't even possibly recall.
Of the coolest people I've met, I'd say Kassim Ouma, Jerson Ravelo, Ricardo Mayorga, Jaidon Codrington, Paulie Malignaggi, and Zab Judah.Comment

I met and trained in the same gym with Saul Mambay, Luis Resto, Juan LaPorte and Daniel Alicea.. also my father is friends with Antonio "Chelo" Diaz and Jose "Chegui" Torres. Chelo has a restaurant in Brooklyn and my father used to chill with him frequently there, also my father grew up with Chegui in Puerto Rico.. also I went to school with Camacho's brother and I saw Hector a few times while I was on the bus, he lives in my area so I would usually catch him around, even though I'm cool with his brother I never got a chance to meet him but my aunt, my cousin and a few friends in a nearby Tattoo parlor know him personally and got me an autograph..
I only SAW Trinidad but I never met him and this was in the Puerto Rican day parade, he got off the float and I spotted some members of my gym with his entourage so I told them to call Trinidad over and they did, I saw his face clearly but I wasn't close enough to shake his hand.. I missed a BIG chance to meet him the 2 weeks he was stuck in NY at the time of 9/11 though, I wrote about that somewhere on here and till this day people still talk about that.. 100
Edit: how could I forget this.. I saw Jackie Frazier, Marvis Frazier and Joe Frazier in the state building a few years back, they were hyping up the Laila Ali fight and there was a ring set up where a few people fought but no notable names, mostly females but them fights was good money. it was an outdoor event..Last edited by crillz; 11-08-2007, 06:05 PM.Comment
