True story. My first trip to Vegas I asked Leija to take a photo of me by the Lewis Tua ring display in mandalay Bay reception. Just thought he was hanging round like me. I had no idea who he was by sight but knew him by name. When I saw him fight later that night on undercard I realised. Forget who his opponent was but he won a decision I think...
It was Ivan Robinson which is a good win on paper but Robinson's best wins were past him by then.
I am glad Jesse James Leija has respect for Azumah Nelson since he fought him 4 times and Gabriel Ruelas was a top draw fighter.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
