    Yeah, I spend a lot of time in Vegas and live there off and on. His gym is over in China town. Think I took that pic with my phone or something my first time there. I mostly just go to watch people train and sometimes chit chat with his uncle Jeff from proboxinginsider.com

    The funny thing is that I don't even like Floyd Jr. I'm a Pacquiao fan. :)

    As for being lucky...I first got invited there after responding to a craigslist ad looking for people to write for a boxing website. A lot of craigslist is spammy, but you can find some great opportunities there.

    Even though I'm not a fan and think he's had some soft opponents, I'd still put Mayweather at the top cause of his record. I'd probably go something like:

    1. Floyd Mayweather Jr
    2. Manny Pacquiao
    3. Andre Ward
    4. Juan Manuel Marquez (40 KOs - WOW)
    5. Bernard Hopkins (should be further down, but I'm a fan)

    For comic relief......Butterbean

    Ha butterbean! didn't think he still boxed.

    Hopkins is coo, be interesting to see him fight Ward or Mayweather.

    I like Pacquiao too very exciting, felt bad when he got a bad decision to bradley and KO from marquez.

    Who are your fav fighters to watch?

    I liked Prince Naseem, Mayweather and Tyson.

    All were confident showman with arrogance but Mayweather is the only to have never been beaten (yet).

    I don't know if Butterbean boxes anymore or not. I mostly remember him from when he knocked Johnny Knoxville out on Jackass. lol.

    I lived for about a year and a half in the Philippines on the same island Pacman is from, so that's one of the reasons I started following him. He's like a national hero over there.

    You mention Tyson. That takes me back. First fight I ever really paid attention to was when he knocked Spinks out in the first round. I think I was in Jr High at the time.

    Yes many people say that about PacMan, I love his humbleness and dedication to his faith.

    This is a picture I like, I hope you too:

    Haha

    Yes his KO rate is amazing too. I wish he would fight more in the US / UK.

    Would love him to give Haye a fight (if Hayes shoulder gets better) or fight Wilder in the US.

    My fav divison has to be the welterweight (light and super welterweight too) because of the amount of boxers there
