By Steve Kim - It's hard to tell if James Kirkland, who faces Eromosele Albert this Saturday night as one of the featured performers on Gary Shaw's HBO-televised 'Night of Rising Stars', is preparing to be on 'American Gladiators', guerrilla warfare or a boxing match.
Unlike most fighters who get in their roadwork in the morning and then head off to the gym in the afternoon before calling it a day, Kirkland goes through a rigorous three-a-day training regimen.
And he's doing more than just running a few miles and then hitting the heavy bag and working the mitts. It's a workout routine that is more Bear Bryant and 'the Junction Boys' than Angelo Dundee or Chappie Blackburn. [details]
