Lows:
1. Wlad's losses to Sanders and especially Brewster...vs Brewster I saw Wlad throw everything at the guy and then just get to the point where he couldn't even keep his hands up. I said "It's over, he's done". I never thought he'd be able to recover.

2. Miguel Cotto's losses to Pacquiao and Margarito...the guy is just ALL heart and for him to get beat down like those are just hard to watch when you're pulling for the guy getting beat up.

3. RJJ's losses to Tarver and Glen Johnson. I was actually able to feel good about Glen Johnson because he's a class act. Tarver is just a giant piece of shit!

Highs:
1. Wlad vs Sam Peter, the guy everyone thought was finished fought through adversity (3 knockdowns), never complained about the punches to the back of the head, and he showed composure in that fight. He's been great ever since.

2. Seeing my friends from the gym have pro matches and do very well. Yeah it's cheesy but North Carolina ain't exactly boxing central and it was good to see those guys do well.

3. My first ever sparring session, I've never really been in real fights before #1 I am a very friendly guy #2 I guess people never wanted to fight me and #3 I never went looking for trouble. I was very nervous but I did well and landed some decent punches....later in my sparring I made one of my opponents miss me with 7 or so consecutive punches and being as big as I am people should note I'm not exactly Pernell Whittaker either.

Emotional high:

First sanctioned amateur boxing match. Had no idea if I was any good, but suspected I wasn't. Was fighting in a casino in the USA in front of 1000+ people against a local, who was 2 yrs older and heavier with more experience...and got boo'd real hard walkin to the ring. Almost ran out of the place i ws so scared. I boxed his damn face off and shut the crowd up. It was my 13th birthday. That was my greatest high.

Have gone undefeated since, 2 provincial titles, in novice and open class, then recently National Open Class Champion. But that still pales in comparison to my first match on the emotional high level.

Emotional low:

It's been a long series of lows in increments since joining the online boxing community. Due mostly to learning how shady, ugly and dishonest the highest levels of this sport have been, and currently are.

Highs:
- Sitting ringside for OLH-Bredahl & Toney-Littles, JLC-Corrales 1, Izzy-Rafa I & III, Martinez-Bunema, CQ-Paul I... Among others.
- Having met so many legends Lopez, ODLH, PBF, SSM, Danny Lopez, Emile, Norris, Yaqui Lopez, Chacon, Carlos Ortiz not to metion Barrera, JMM, Erik Morales and Pacquiao. Along with loads more.
- Getting my glove signed by Pacquiao, JMM and MAB. I have yet to get Erik to sign it but now that he's back in the circuit I might be able to get it done without having to travel to TJ where he promotes fight cards.
- As for fights go; Morales beats MAB, Morales beats Pac, MAB beats Naz, ODLH beats Vargas, JMM vs Pac I & II, JCC beats Camacho, Baldomir beats Zab, Nonito beats Vic, Lopez beats Alvarez I.


Lows:
- The recent deaths in boxing but I have to say Alexis death hit me hard.
- Margarito plaster
- Panchito Bojado turns out to be a bust.
- Finding out about Resto-Collins.
- As far as fights go; Cottos loses mainly Pacs as I don't account for the loss to Margarito, ODLH losing to SSM, JCC losing to ODLH, Andrade getting robbed vs. Bute, Erik losing to Pac, Kessler losing to Joe, Vitali losing to Lennox, Kats losing to Casa, Cazares losing to Ivan.

Here's some that quickly came to mind...
