Hopkins back in the late 90's. I spoke to hime for like a min or two. I also ran into Gatti at a strip club, and Mitch Green (this guys ****ing crazy) ran up on me and some of my homies when we were smoking a blunt in Harlem.Comment

Met Jack Dempsey when I was 12..sat with him at his table in his resturant on B'way
Got into an elevator in my apartment building with Tyson and Don King.
Few years later, sat across from Tyson on a flight from NY to Chicago (nice, polite, guy).

I really haven't sat down and had a conversation with a boxer but I've shook a few hands. Mayweather in Detroit when he was fighting at COBO and Tyson in Vegas. Last summer I was at the Cotto/Marg fight and got to shake hands with Alfredo Angulo, Juan Manual Lopez, and Kevin Kelley.Comment

I was awestruck. He was smaller then I thought but he has had a rough life. He was still throwing punches at people who walked by. My wife (girlfriend at the time) got a ticket and we drove all night to get there. Too bad she only had 1 ticket, I didn't have anybody to take a picture of me with him. I did take some pictures of him kissing babies. He is still the Greatest!Comment

no living legend but i ran into Anthony Dirrell @ the Angulo/Cosme card at the BAC in Sunrise, FL
we spoke briefly and i shook his hand. not gonna lie, i was "star struck" because i wasnt expecting to run into any boxer LOL. he was real cool, i totally forgot to ask if i could take a picture with him.
(i think his brother fought on the non televised undercard)Comment
