    Met Jermain Taylor several times in person. Met Lennox Lewis, Dominic Guinn, Kassim Ouma, and Emanuel Augustus.

    Interviewed over the phone: Margarito and Jason Litzau.

    All were really great guys..

    However, Larry Merchant and Lou DiBella were both *******s in person.

          Impressive list Jab!

          I once got an autographed t-shirt from Jorgen Hansen. 99% probably dont know him but he was possibly the most popular boxer ever from Denmark. He KO'ed Dave 'boy' Green in 3 rounds at age 36. Following that fight he was the no.2 ranked welterweight in the world. He then got a chance to fight in the US on the Leonard-Kalule undercard. There a scared Hansen was ko'ed in a round by mexican slugger Pipino Cuevas.

            I saw SRL at a distance.. I didn't actually meet him. I was with my mom at a studio and he was there talking with what looked like a good friend. I didn't know who he was then, but I heard he was a former world champ.

            Also when I lived in CA, I saw James Toney. I only knew of him because of the Jirov fight. It was funny, when I saw him, I only saw the back of his head and I was like, "That dude's head looks like a penis." and then he turned around. -_- Good thing I didn't say that out loud. But then I shouted "Lights Out!" and he went "SUP!" and gave me a wink, and left. He seemed tight.
