      I watched big fights with my family member since I could I remember. I knew fighters like Chavez, Camacho, and Duran. But, didn't know much about the sport.

      I became really hardcore about it 1993. When I was 9yrs old. That is the first time I witnessed Trinidad and he fought Blocker. Since that day I been hooked. Tito made me a fan...

            Long time, I'm 27 now, probably I was around 12 or 13 when I properly got into it, followed Naseem Hamed, he got me into it I'd say.

                30 years old. I'm from Pernell Whitaker's home town so I would read about his fights when he was a kid. The internet wasn't around back then so there was really no way for me to catch old fights. Just had to listen to my dad's stories. I really started collecting back in '97. Since then have amassed a collection of about 500 fights...still growing.

                  I'm 16 and have been watching religiously for about 1 1/2 years
                  I've started watching old fights and stuff
                  The oldest boxing memory i hold is watching the de la hoya-hopkins fight and my family saying de la hoya threw the fight
