I have met my fair share of guys, over the years I have met Hagler, Benitez, Pryor, Fullmer, Archie Moore, Willie Pep, Floyd and Tracy Patterson, Vernon Forrest, Verno Phillips, Tyson, Lewis, Bowe, Morrision, De La Hoya, Hearns, Nonito Doniare, Margarito, Cassamayor, Diego Corrales (one of the nicest guys I have ever met), Roy Jones, Cooney, Norton, Ali, ...Oh hell I can't even name them all. Not to mention promoters, trainers, managers I have met. Plus interviews I have done.
I still get a kick out of big names I have not met before and speak to for the first time. Has to do with being a fan of the sport I guess.
I am sure Mick has met more then I have over the years. He is like a staple at every big event west of the mississippi

Nice...
Hagler, Benitez, Archie, Hearns, Diego, RJJ, Ali...... Fuck
I know exactly what you mean.
When I met Erik I found myself standing there starring at him....
My ass. The fact that I'll NEVER meet Ali is sure as hell a testament that you pretty much take the cake here...![]()

I meet a lot of guys at charity event's, Press conferences.... I have met a lot of guys through Bob Miller (HW Shannon Millers Father is a pretty well known cut man and he rents his Farm out for training camps to fighters, his wife was Tysons first promoter before Tyson was known and hooked up with King)....Gym Visits...and in Canastota I have worked at a few IBHOF weekends...Meet a lot of old timers there....
I met Ali at a charity Dinner in NYC....Hagler in LV right before he beat Mugabi then again at the IBHOF, I was a kid and there with my family, Hearns I met in Detroit, Corrales while I was at Foxwoods covering his second bout with Cassamayor, Archie about a dozen times over the years, Jones in Fla before his fight with Glen Kelly, Benitez at a charity event then again at the IBHOF....can't remember everyone....
I do know that you have a hell of a collection of pics with boxers that you have shown here...I know you go to a lot of bouts and meet a lot of guys

Wladimir Klitscko, Ruslan Chagaev, Michael Sprott, Arthur Abraham, Felix Sturm, met them at different Sport events, I met Chageav at a beer stall![]()
Met Frank Bruno when I was 10 it was like meeting a giant, really nice bloke
Met Ricky Hatton and Matthew Hatton a bunch of times they both lived on my street when they lived with thier parents, if you want to meet Ricky just do a trawl off the pubs in the Hyde area a few weeks after a fight and he will be there
Met Junior Witter at Hatton Vs Pendelton, I was wearing a "Witter the Shitter" T shirt and bumped in to him on the way to the bar at the MEN and I have to say he was a top bloke, I had a laugh with him and his mates and told him Hatton would kill him! he said then he only wanted the chance to fight him, I didn't think he deserved the chance then, but I do know
Also going to the Evander Holyfield book signing today although I have been told he is only giving out pre signed cards as his hands are knackerd
