    Abner Mares.

    Here at a local mall in SoCal. Very very nice guy. He was alone. Talked boxing with him for like 15 minutes. Nicest athlete I've ever met.

    It was before the first Agbeko fight.

        Camacho, he was friendly but at the same time crazy and ****y. Dude just loved attention and make ppl laugh

        John Ruiz, he is a quiet man even in real life

        Rid**** Bowe twice, the second time you can tell he was right upstairs

        Finito Lopez, I was very impressed with him with everything going around that he would give some time to talk about boxing

        Mantecas Medina, very humble dude

        Aaron Davis, he has a gym in the Bronx

        Roy Jones, he was shooting a commercial and actually took time to talk and take photos

        Don King, he actually a big physical dude. He is very loud and doesn't directly talk at you

        Kassim Ouma, he is a very nice guy

        Hagler, wouldn't give the time of the day to anybody no matter how many times you would see him

        Buster Douglas, he thought he was too important to talk to anybody even if he was just sitting there doing nothing and this was like 20 years later after the Tyson fight.

        The most recent was Bute at the MSG theater, he was sitting in the crowd at the Garcia/Salido fight. He was very approachable and in between fights he would chat and hang out with the fans

          Evander Holyfield.
          I met him at the airport after WrestleMania 25 in Houston Texas.
          He was waiting for his flight and we started talking about Boxing, Him, Tyson, Mayweather, Mania and all.

          He signed autographs and took pictures all while sitting down.

                      Roy Jones Jr. didn't get to talk much was busy, was his card he was promoting. Seemed to be a pretty cool guy though from the short interaction.

                      Andre Ward. Got to sit ring side with him and we he was awesome. Talked about the fights and how he wanted to make a name for himself in the sport (8-0 at the time). Genuinely a good guy.
