    The good ones? Marvin Hagler, Nigel Benn, Michael Watson, John Mugabi, Gerald McClellan - all at the Pea**** Gym in London. Frank Bruno and Naseem Hamed when they came to visit the gym I trained at. Joe Calzaghe when he came to fight in my adopted hometown (pre-world champion) as well as recently. I have sparred with Glenn Catley (at Empire Gym), Dean Francis (at Empire Gym), Ryan Rhodes (at Neville Brown's gym in Burton) and Neville Brown among others. I briefly kind of half-sparred with Carl Froch once. I'm personal friends with Dean Francis and spar with him often at his dad's gym in Baskingstoke. Belly (Stevie Bell) from the Phoenix Gym I know on a personal level.

    That's just off the top of my head, for now.

          Danny Williams I trained alongside when he was preparing for the 1994 Commonwealth Games and Audley Harrison I trained alongside when he was preparing for the 1998 Commonwealth Games. Richie Woodhall I met. I'm sure there are more..

            good list too! I've been close enough to meet Tommy Hearns. But he was so crowded with people surrounding him. I didn't even bother.

                He's one of my favorite fighters. He accomplished so much in little time. Imagine what he could of accomplished if he was given more time?? Jeesh. Well, that's pretty awesome that you were fortunate to meet Sal Sanchez.

                    I've only met Roy Jones Jr. and that was at a homeless shelter in Miami. It turns out he was down there looking for an opponent for his upcoming fight. I thought he was crazy, because he wouldn't stop shoving the bums around and kept on trying to pick fights with them by saying things like, "Pensacola in the house!"
