Re: What fighters, trainers or promoters have you met?
I'm pretty lucky to live in Boston so I can go to Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods and also to the International Boxing Hall of Fame for induction weekend every year. I grew up in RI so I was able to meet some of the other guys.

Re: What fighters, trainers or promoters have you met?
I met Butterbean at the 1st De la Hoya fight and met James Toney at a cigar bar in the Mandalay Bay after the 1st Pacman-Marquez fight. And the answer is yes, one is white, one is black but only about 10lbs difference LMAO. Both guys were super cool. Toney is totally like the guy you see in interviews; brash, trash talking, motormouth but a really cool guy.
