I will never forget some of the pointers he gave me in the gym, it was an honor to be at the same heavy bag with the man.
You really think it was the Jackson fight that ruined him?? Just wouldn't appear that way since all his good performances occured after that. It certainly didn't appear to have any short term effect.. Your right though that he didn't seem prepared for that fight.. Before the KO he was outboxing Jackson very well but in the 2nd round he sort of just took a nap against the ropes.. I have no idea what he was thinking against a guy like Jackson, could he really have gassed out that early? Either way, he was not going to win that fight after the first round, for whatever reason. That's really cool you see him at the gym, wherabouts if I might ask. I don't know where he used to train or anything.
