I thought it was a wonderful tribute. I honestly teared up a little, especially when Arguello's son started choking up. Very moving. Three amazing people. They were all truly blessed.

I did as well. At the end of the day this thing called boxing is our thing. It's our very special thing.

Gotta admit I am in the same boat as you guys I was a bit welled up during the part with Arguellos son.....The whole thing got me a bit in truth...All 3 great guys and great warriors....True gentleman in and out of the ring....To even see a middle aged Pryor speak about his friend Arguello

I remeber him saying that as if it were yesterday. One of those boxing moments I'll never forget.

OOhh!!! Shit.
I saw this that night and was sobbing like a little kid here after dropping his double scoop ice cream cone.
Shit that was painful to see the whole way through...

Don't think I'll be able to see it again just to see it.

What???
Alexis after defeating Mancini expressed himself and told Mancini if their was anything he could do for Mancini or his father he would be glad to.
Alexis said and I quote:
"I love your father" Arguello told Mancini.
"He is the most beautiful thing you have, like I have my father. Take care of him and I promise If I can do something for you, let me know please."
