    I have to say Mike Tyson when he came over to London for the Julius Francis fight a 6 or 7 years ago. I think you get a better judge of boxer away from cameras and the lenses. I can remember in London, some kid asked Tyson for an autograph, the kid could not find pen, so the kid said to Tyson "Can I just run the shop and get a pen" like in that innocent way kids do (lol)

    Tyson just waited there, with all his entourage saying 'Cmon Mike leave him, lets's go". I mean he had stuff to do, I wouldn't mind but the kid was a few minutes too, so it wasn't an in and out job, but Tyson just waited there until the kid came back with notepad and not only did Tyson give him an autograph, he also gave him a ticket to the fight.

    Kostya Tszyu - very nice bloke.

    Danny Green - also, very good guy. Interviewed him for Saddos over the phone but them bumped into him in a tattoo shop where my girlfriend was getting some work done. Couldn't have been nicer, very passionate and knowledgable about the sport. We chatted away about Chris John and his sparring with James Toney, we spoke for about 10 minutes.

    Anthony Mundine - covered a weigh in of his for the site also and, while the cameras were on he was a total dickhead - doing the whole 'I'm the greatest' routine and dissing everyone. Then, when all the media were gone and it was only sad case boxing tragics (like me) around, he just became a regular , nice guy. Talking to kids, giving autographs and we spoke about boxing a bit - seemed like a decent fella who acts up for publicity. Must work too, given the money he can pull in for fighting taxi drivers on a wednesday night in Sydney...

    Gairy St Clair - Another nice guy, we watched the Judah/Mayweather fight together and I was surprised by how well Judah started. Gairy just told me 'wait, he'll fold, he'll fold'. Sure enough, a few rounds later Mayweahter was in complete control and Gairy just tapped the side of his head and said something like 'you see? he's scared to win'. Apparently they used to spar together when Gairy was in Brooklyn and Judah had psychological problems back then too.

    Haven't met any boxers I haven't like really.
    "I take good care of my people. I like to inflict permanent psychological damage."
