Boxers you saw in person.

[Nameless]

I had juan urango visist my gym, ill tell you the guy is not small, but he jumps rope like robocop. On another occasion i david estrada came to our gym with his posse, and i had to spar one of his friends(who is actually on bangbros for those who know what that is) and whose ass i kicked. Also had timur and sultan ibragimov at my house. Nothing special but its worth a story, id love to hear yours

What the hell is bangbros?

Beside, how come Sultan and Timur came to your house? How are they?

I never met many boxers in person, unfortunately. Beside Eric Lucas and Joachim Alcine (Alcine in Montreal and Lucas during the Beyer Clash in Lepizig) and it was just briefly. Guys like Cutmemick have met a lot and could tell you a lot, oidem for Pride of Boston but he's not much around by these days.

I've seen:

Antonio Tarver broadcasting at the Ward vs. Bika match
Ward
Bika

The rest were at the boxing world cup Phillipines vs. Mexico in Sacramento, CA in 2007
Gerry Penalosa
Jhonny Gonzales
Ray Bautista
Daniel Ponce De Leon
Lennox Lewis
Oscar De La Hoya
Juan Manuel Marquez
Raul Marquez
Michael Katsidis

I was ringside so I was able to pat Ponce De Leon on the back as he made his way to the ring, only fighters I met that night were Z Gorres and a few other Filipinos who fought on the card.

Stood right next to Katsidis like 3 feet from him for a while and didn't even know it was him...

Quintana, Cotto, Tarver, Calderon, Juanma, Trinidad, Jose Pedraza, and the Arroyo Brothers

all the local guys I've seen at small event cards on the island besides Quintana who I met in Moca cause I sporadically work out at the gym he would usually go to, I met him when he was training for his comeback fight after his KO loss to Williams, Tarver I saw at Disney hahaha

Oliver 'The Atomic Bull' McCall - frequented my gym
DeMarcus 'Chop Chop' Corley - saw as a guest at a fight


and just because I am broke, I missed out on seeing Jameel McCline fight some nobody and young up and coming prospect Joe Hanks this past Saturday.....I could kick myself for missing that!

I didn't even think of that. He fought in your neck of the woods recently huh ?

You should add Jameel on facebook, he's on my friends list. Nice guy and he posts often, just like Monte Barrett does.

Saw Gerry Penalosa once in the Elorde boxing gym back here in Manila. Classy guy. Unfortunately, didn't have my camera/cellphone with me so wasn't able to take pics and in the heat of the moment even forgot to ask for an autograph. I know.. how terribly stupid of me. I don't know, but for some reason I still think if manny pac and gerry penalosa were both there and I just had to pick one guy to meet it would have been Gerry. Weird.

Also met the grandsons of Gabriel "flash" Elorde (pro boxers but certainly nowhere near their gramp's level) several times on the restaurant I worked at which was beside the gym they own.

He did always seem like an ok guy, I wonder if he sparred at my gym while he was down here. 1 of the regulars at the gym Jonathan Haggler who just lost to Maruiz Wach was a sparring partner for Wladimir Klitschko in preparation for the Thompson and Chagaev fights. A guy I used to spar quite frequently with (Paul Jeanette) just lost a decision to BJ Flores. So by 2 degrees of separation I've fought some pretty decent guys
