          First live boxing I saw on TV where Italian boxers fighting live on Italian channels and the first two big fights were Tyson vs Lewis , I still remember the line of security in the ring, and Lewis vs Klitschko.

              First fight I remember seeing, and one that I actually attended, my father and uncle took me to see Chacon-Limon IV at Sac Memorial. The thing I most remember was how crazy the place was. I was 6.

              Really started getting into the sport due to the '84 Olympic team.

              I've seen Tony Lopez a couple of times at old Arco Arena. Place was packed, and was crazy as well.

              Seen a whole lot of boxing from ABC's Wide World of Sports, Tuesday night fights on USA, watching PPV's on my black box, so on.

              I've watched a lot of boxing over my life, and as much as it frustrates and disappoints me at times, I well continue watching until I'm put in the ground.
