I also started with Amir Khan in the Olympics.
During one of the fights at the end it had the camera on Amir; my nan asked me who won because she knew it was a british fighter in one of them, and I said he did and she just tutted in dissapointment.
Of course I corrected her

Honestly the one that got me into boxing was Oscar de la Hoya. My mom was a huge fan of his and she watched all his fights and I started watching them also and i liked how he was boxing and I remember when I first saw him fight was again Chavez and everyone was going for Chavez but me being litle and just knowing about DLH I was rooting for him an I won so my love for the sport developed from then on

I might be the first to say this but it was the Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya who got me interested in the sport and later Floyd Mayweather jr. and Manny Pacquaio.
