Awesome read! CC and RIP to his wife. Boxing events are filled with people like that and everytime I go I try to ask around a bit and figure out who is going to be there because those are the guys you can really learn from. I posted about it the other day but I had the chance to talk for a bit to a fighter named Johnny Gonsalves who's one of the best fighters ever to come out of San Francisco and that was really cool. The guy who tipped me off is the editor of a paper here who has really made the rounds in the sports world and he is one of those guys I call periodically just to talk boxing and we have had discussions literally hours on end. In fact the first time I met him we talked for 2 hours on first meeting on all sorts of fronts.

Really cool story CMM and deepest sympathies for Lou Fillippo. I've seen his name on boxrec quite a bit but have never learned about him.
