    lol, your avatar is dope.

    I was wondering about bhop - were all of his fights in prison considered amateur fights and did he have any amateur fights prior to prison?

      I think he had some am fights before prison. On the Behind The Glory Doc he talks about them I think, but he got outta boxing and into crime. You know the rest.

      I'm not 100% sure on that though.

          Julio Cesar Chavez Sr, only had about 15 amateur fights. He won 14 straight, Lost 1 and turned pro.
          If that's true that's amazing.

          I don't follow Amateur fighters because I think the scoring system leaves a lot to be desired. Often times you see fighters ripped off who clearly win the fight.

          Margarito had 30? That doesn't surprise me. I bet there's a lot of Mexican fighters out there like that.

          It's no wonder I love Mexican fighters so much, I'm constantly amazed by them. I'm a Mexican fight fan in a tall white guy's body.

            Yeah Hop went into the amateurs before turning pro, had a ****load of fights if I remember correctly. Though the exact number escapes me.

            And thanks for the avatar comment.

              I am pretty certain it is true, I remember one of the commentators on one of his fights saying it. I watched a lot of his fights a little while ago

                'Nard was born a beast. He made a shank out of the umbilical cord and stabbed his way out of the womb.

                His first words were "I ain't never gonna lose to no whiteboy!".

                    Too bad he was an overrated Euro bum.

                    Kidding. I'm surprised to hear such big names in this conversation. I need a serious lesson on the amateurs. (just as long as it doesn't involve watching the videos)

                      :lo1l:

                      Older am fights are pretty good, But most ones with this new scoring system are **** imo.
