      In Kazakhstan Boxing and Wrestling are the two most popular sports. Here's Golovkin doing some Greco-Roman style grappling with a MMA/BJJ fighter who looks about 200lbs and Gena holds his own. Dempsey and alot of boxers from that era used to incorporate grappling into their training camp and Jack was a pretty accomplished at it.

          Rigondeaux and Lomachenko are both right handed southpaws with the former leaning towards ambidextrous because he throws with his left.

            Roy Jones father used to make him fight with one hand tied behind his back or box against 2 or 3 people at once when he was younger.

                Sorry if either of these have been posted:

                Not that it is too terribly interesting but...

                Jermain Taylor was a very nervous child and had a terrible studder. He still studders and stammers when he gets overly excited or emotional.

                Kassim Ouma was kindnapped as a 6 year old child in Uganda and forced to fight for a rebel force in their civil war. He was liberated by the national army... who then forced him to fight for them as a child soldier. While in the Ugandan military, he took up boxing and after leaving the army, came to the U.S. as part of a Ugandan amateur team and just decided to stay.

                I attended a post fight presser of Ouma's once. He and his entire Ugandan posse entered at the same time and had the entire room smelling like a sack full of skunk @ssholes!

                  Floyd cried once to try on his drama acting stint. it happened when everyone got bored on his fight with Baldomir which I believe will be the flashback when he fights Canelo.

                  Pacquiao never sold stolen cigarettes. He was a helper in a bakery.
