Dominican style my dude.

Wuahahahaha! I guess that explains it! I grew up around Dominicans!

Whoops! Kind of embarassing...I'd like to say it was a typo, but it wasn't. lol Thanks for the correction. Glad you enjoyed the article, bro!

Dominicans really say it like that tho... And spell it as well.

EDIT:
In NY? Oh yea most definitely.

The more interviews I read with Richard, the worse I feel. These decisions always happen to the nicest guys...and I'm assuming that's why they're picked on.

I really wasn't sure what to make of Abril at first. That confrontation at the Miami presser and some later comments had me unsure of what Richard's deal was. But the more I see of him and read about him, the more I like the kid. Abril comes across as smart and humble. I hope he has a solid career.

Yeah. I had heard Abril fought with an injured hand, but this is the first time I've seen him confirm it. Richie seems so down-to-earth that I have to believe him. Quite frankly, I don't think it would've made a difference if Abril's hand was okay. He just doesn't have that kind of power to begin with. I'm sure Richard would say the same.

he really does seem at peace with things


can you imagine the whining you'd hear from amir khan about a decision like that?


abril knows anybody worth the piece of paper it takes to make a scorecard knew who won that fight
and his name aint bam bam
