    Paul Spadafora documentary

    Has anybody watched the Spadafora documentary in the video section? What so you guys think? Anybody else change their views/opinions on the guy? I for one always felt sorry for him even though most of his demons he brought on himself. The guy was good and although never had anything outstanding he still had outstanding angles and ring IQ as far as manuvering his opponents. To me his greatest asset was always knowing that he never had power or exceptional speed and so he cultivated his skill and always played his role as boxer.

      As sad as it sounds, the only reason people know who he is is because of Mayweather

        Well the mainstream sure, but boxing fans definitely knew who Paul was.

          Anyone who knows anything about boxing knows Spadafora. You casuals might not though.

          Thanks for the heads up on the documentary, will check it out.

            Newer boxing fans might only know Spadafora for his rumored bout with Floyd a few summers ago, but anyone watching boxing a decade ago knows who he is. Paul was a regular on HBO.

              Paul was my favorite boxer since I was a child and he's the reason I ever stepped into the ring to follow my dreams. We're from the same neighborhood and he was like a local celebrity around there.

              He had his problems, made a bunch of mistakes, but he did his time and now he's trying to get back in the mix. I like the guy, he loves boxing and he trains hard, nicest guy in the world.

                If he trains hard, and keeps fighting as much as possible. Don't see a reason why he can't be in the mix.
