Yeah isnt that crazy? His family lived in like a cardboard shack with palm leaves tied onto the roof to stop the rain from leaking in as much. At least that is what it looked like to me when they showed footage of his family on HBO before Baldomir lost the title to a man who dressed in his entrance Roman gladiator and in the fight wore pink gloves, shoes and trunks. That footage was awesome though...it showed his family in Argentina watching and praying as Carlos Baldomir got his dream world title shot against Zab Judah, and in one of the biggest upsets of 2006, yanked the tablecloth out from under the overconfident "Super" Judah. It was great to see their reaction when he was declared the winner!
