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.

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.
