I had NOBODY email that never fought before telling me that they could know what it was really like... if you had 10 fighters in a room and DAVE , too, talking about that walk to the ring and the crazy feelings and thoughts you experience... does Dave REALLY think he could relate and add serious input??????
    you obviously didn't read my previous post? where I agreed that I couldn't know about being in a 12 round fight? I never claimed to know how it felt. I claimed that I could talk and write about Boxing. You seem to rearrange the argument to make your point.

    bottom line is that I have a great deal of respect for you as a former fighter..as well as anyone that steps into the ring. I also understand I can't relate to certain things in the ring. Stop grandstanding..I think we agree for the most part.

      what is the Green Mile article? I haven't seen that. thanks

      by the way, I have been in the ring..but not pro and certainly not even close to your level. As mentioned before in a previous post, I wasn't good enough and decided I should try football instead

        I SAID "If me and three other 12 round pros were siting around talking about what it is like to be in 12 round fights, get hurt in a fight, etc etc.. and you were sitting there with us... u do know that your input into a conversation on THOSE aspects of boxing would be pointless, right?(no disrespect intended."

        The YOU said "so only people like you should be able to comment or write about Boxing? Very shortsighted my friend. And yes, I do feel I could have a place in your conversation."

        So NO, I am not grandstanding..I am just replying that you would have NO place in THAT conversation regardless of how much boxing you watch. It's not an insult to you by me saying that, either, so please don't feel like I am trying to ffend you because I am not. It is merely that many, many fans of boxing do not truly realize what type of boxing knowledge comes with actually being in that ring for a pro fight.

So you kind of run them into your punches
          Thank you, by the way have you ever sparred with Reggie Johnson(the one that fought RJJ)or are you friends with the guy if so how is he doin' I thought he was one of the better LHW's of his era... How do you see a Montell Griffin - Reggie Johnson matchup playing out.

                  I never sparred with Reggie but we are friends from way back and I was there in 1992 when he and RJ had real good sparring in pensacola when we were all in camp together. Reggie is doing real well and is actually on AOL now

                    Ask him if he's making a comeback. That's what I heard.
