    I've met and spoken with Sugar Ray Leonard and Mike Tyson.

    Tyson was the nicest guy ever. I called him "Mr. Tyson" and he asked me to call him "Mike." He insisted on signing something for me even though he was holding up a huge entourage of people with him and he looked like he was in a hurry.

    Ray was probably a little freaked out by me. Definitely the most star-struck I've ever been. I might have dropped my jaw when I realized he was standing in front of me in line at a gas station in Brentwood, CA. I was in absolute awe of him. I said "You're one of the greatest fighters of all time..." He seemed to want nothing more than to get away from me.

            Well I didn't actually meet him, but Rigondeaux was at the table directly next to me at the bar/restaurant inside the Toyota Center in Houston during the Donaire/Arce fight. Dude was trying to eat but had a line of people wanting to take pictures. I wanted to get one with him but was like f**k it, let the dude eat.

              Jeff Lacy nodded hello to me one time while he jumped rope at my gym.
              Besides that, my coach.

                I've been within feet from a few fighters but the only one I've actually got to shake hands with and take pics with was Omar Figueroa at his fight March 2nd earlier this year.

                  Marquez in LA, got a pic with him, Genaro Hernadez @ Del Mar, CA race track. I ran into Roger Mayweather in the Mandalay Bay elevator on my way to see the Castillo vs Mayweather fight, it was funny because when the elevator closed it was just both of us in the elevator and we didn't say a word to each other so I guess I had I chance to meet him but I was a about to go root for Castillo so I didn't say anything to him. I also met Castillo at the Mandalay bay lobby after his fight with Mayweather.

                    Erik was kind of a ****, though. But I've heard that he is like that all the time.
                    Yeah Morales is a huge **** for some reason.

                    Tyson - just for a picture.
                    Mayweather - talked to him for about an hour before he fought Gatti.
