Turn around and I see Paul Gonzalez, someone who I read a lot about and heared a lot about growing up in East L.A.
For those who don't know Paul was part of the 1984 US Boxing team and the Light Flyweight gold medalist. He was team mates with Steve McCrory, Pernell Whittaker, Mark Breland, Tyrell Biggs, Meldrick Taylor, Frank Tate, Henry Tillman and Holyfield.

As a pro he did not have the same success as he did in the Olympics having a short lived career. He did get a shot at the title vs. Orlando Canizalez but lost via TKO on cuts as Canizalez was able to catch him early on and cut him up to force the stoppage.

Simply put,these are absolutely out-f!!!!-standing Mick.Great pics and it sounds like a blast.Count yourself lucky my man,many would give a lesser limb to have that experience.Your enthusiasm comes through,love the Norris Pic especially.Glad he is doing well after a career of excitement.

I love to see these events,The past older greats meshing & blending with the current greats really puts the huge greatness of this sport into one focus....and why we love it .Anything On Marvin Johnson,Did he show up for induction?Love watching his battles with Saad,Lopez etc.Just classics.

Griffith looks great...Happy!!Good to see Gonzalez as well.I thought he got shafted a bit in second fight with Canizales,butting heads like billy goats.Seemed injury prone but solid,just did not pan out.Just noticed Danny Lopez...man he looks like he is ready to answer the bell in that one . Thanks for sharing dude.Awesome insight as always.
