How many of these names (boxers who have competed in the world famous OHIO STATE FAIR tournament) he recognizes. He's in here, too (as am I)...

Mixed in with the thousands of boxers that have made their way out to the Ohio tournament each August have been some of the top amateurs and pros in the United States as well as the world including Olympic Gold Medalists, multiple world champions, and even legends of the game. Guys like Mike Tyson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy "Hitman" Hearns, Aaron "The Hawk" Pryor, James "Buster" Douglas, Hilmer Kenty, and Michael "Second To" Nunn have all competed at the Ohio Fair and not always with success, either.

William Guthrie- my worked his corner when he was a pro...I came out and held the BUCKET as a kid!!!
Louis Howard- another close friend of my dad's
Jerry Page- Pops beat him twice, Jerry went on to make the 84 team and won the gold. He and pops stay in touch
Tommy Hearns- good friend of Pops...Pops trained with Hearns & McCrory when he lived in Detroit and trained at KRONK gym
