    What was is that got you into boxing?

    Be it training or just watching the boxing. What was it that made you think this is sport that i love. For me it was watching the zab judah v floyd mayweather fight with all of the buildups, the fight itself i feel that fight captured everyones imaginations and showed the good and bad in boxing.

    What are your reasons?

        Old video tapes of Joe Frazier fights, hometown hero and all. After that I started watching it on a regular basis. That was 15 years ago.

                    I kinda grew up watching the sport with my dad- all the bi PPVs, anyway. The first time I ever was really a fan though, is when I watched Trinidad-Vargas. After that first round, I was permanently hooked.
