You mean when I actually started following the sport instead of just watching Tyson/Jones/Naseem/DLH? Around 1999.

I saw the big fights between Tyson, Holyfield and Lewis. I got into boxing in 2003.

/teddy, you know I was born in the good old days, where men worked in the Iron Mill 80 hours before coming into the ring Drunk and still going 102 rounds. Those were real men.

I got into Boxing before it was "hip" around 1865 before Boxing soldout and everyone jumped on its wagon, I knew the original people who invented it. Mr. Jeff Jab and Mr. David Hook.

My favorite fighters are those you never heard of because im so trendy.

1995 with Prince Naz is when I first took interest.Didn't start seriously following it until two or three years later,when I'd stay up until the early hours of Saturday/Sunday morning to watch the fights in America on Sky Sports.
