Saw Zab Judah once at a hotel in Miami. Nice guy, but the guy he was with was a dickhead. I think he was one of the Goosen guys or something!?!?

[Silkeyjoe]

Met a good lot of fighters when I was in Vegas.

Broner - cunt
Stiverne - Dick
Wilder - sound
Arreola - Legend
Porter - nice guy but I was completely pissed when talking to him
Judah - only got a pic so no time to talk to him
Omar Figueroa - nice guy and got him to sign a glove for me
Lee and Andy Selby - both nice guys.

Met a few around Ireland too

Tyson Fury - loves to talk about boxing
Ste Ormond and Spike O Sulivan - both sound lads
Barry McGuigan - great guy
Mick Dowling - will do anything for money
Bernard Dunne - didnt really have any time for me

How was Stiverne a dick? I'm just curious, I mean you say Broner was a cunt and it doesn't take much convincing for all of us to believe it, but Stiverne seems humble enough in interviews.

He just had no time for me at all. It was after a show and just asked for a quick pick and he just started mumbling. He warmed up a bit after i told him I won money on him in both his fights against Arreola but just got a bad vibe from him.

in May of 1983 I met Rocky Graziano in Emerson New Jersey at the Emerson New Jersey Country Club. I was a banquet waiter that spring and summer in between semesters at my university. I went downstairs to the bar about 2 hours before the wedding banquet was to begin and my boss whose name was Peter birisi told me take a look over there at that man sitting at the table by himself do you know who that man is. So he led me over to the table and he says have a seat. The old man looked at me and he said do you know who I am. I said no. He said I'm rocky Graziano did you ever hear of me. At that time I was only 19 years old so I did not hear of rocky Graziano and I apologize to him.

Rocky lives for the BHOF- Just like Sylvestor Stallone doing Rocky Part-Balboa- an old fighter reliving his stories at his restuarant to anyone who'd listen- That's Grazi.

Met and shook Trinidad's hand first time at a charity event in San Juan. Years later saw him and exchanged a few words at a concert in San Juan. Saw John John Molina years ago working for a local phone company. Great guy, though a bit slurry in his conversation... product of a long, tough career.

[Lepinthehood]

Worked next door to chisora's parents house. Saw him getting out of his Beamer. Big bloke, very wide. Not tall though but he ain't known for his height.

I have heard Tyson is quite short too.

I went to a play in manchester last night called Border Line and richie woodalls daughter was in it

richie was there on the front row, i was gonna say hello but he shot off straight away at the end

[Memphis]

This thread is crazy. It's almost as if outside of the ring boxers live a relatively normal life and mix with the rest of us.

[corvette]

Vernon Parris...really cool and down to earth.

He was in pajama bottoms buying a flat screen TV.

[Beanz]

Have met Ricky Hatton was really sound, was surprised how big his hands were but how small he seemed. Bruno the legend, called me Guv and was really sweet with my Mrs. Chris Eubank Sr on a train from London to Brighton, was going to chin him but he had a really big body guard with him Actually he was quite approachable but after exchanging a few pleasantries I let him carry on his journey in peace. (He was sat opposite across the table).

Mick Dowling - will do anything for money
Bernard Dunne - didnt really have any time for me

Nice, you got Omar to sign a glove. He always struck me as a nice guy. Very appreciative to his fans. I'm a big fan of his. Very active in the ring. I hope his defense continues to improve or he may have a short career or a long one and end up brain damaged.

Can't say it enough- if fortunate to have some time off June 8-12 go the BHOF. (Walrus-GO!) A lot of gloves gets signed. One glove I got Leon Spinks, Chad Dawson, Micky Ward, Hector Camacho (the year he passed) on the thumb is Steve Cunningham & Ken Norton.

A buddy mines has a glove to kill 4. Manny Pacquiao, Juan Manual Marquez..and as he asked Erik Morales to sign it- he stops, turns the glove over & sees their names, classic look on his face. I like my glove- but it wont be worth what George's glove will be.
