I got this in the mail today. Then I thought to myself, why is this dude on the cover???
Somebody explain this to me like I'm 10 years old.
What has he done to warrant a cover??
C'mon, boxing!!
Pictured here is my boxing coach, Junious Hinton, who helped save my life.
Not sure who those other guys are.π
When I met him I was in my 2nd foster home, earning my stripes as a street kid, headed to nowhere. He changed my life with his love for boxing which he passed on to me.
Who do I run into at the Las Vegas airport this morning. None other than, Jim Gray!
I couldn't believe I was nervous talking boxing with him.π
It wasn't long, though. He was rushing to his flight. ππΎππΎππΎππΎ
I told Jim, there was one line I'll always remember him by.
During the 30 for 30 episode, "Chasing Tyson" he said when describing the Tyson mystique, "Nobody gravitates toward calm. Everybody wants to see a hurricane." #ClassicLine
Legendary athletes were born on this day.
Happy Birthday to my fellow legends!ππΎππΎππΎππΎ
As my coach always told me, "You're a legend in your own mind." π
My wife took my son and I out on Valentines Day. My son's birthday is the 14th and mine is the 17th.
Somehow I still wind up spending more.π
Life ain't fair.
And for those who say, it ain't about the money, I say, yes it is!π
Look what came out today, just in time for all you fight game degenerates to buy yourselves for Christmas or Hanukah. Thirty-five years' worth of boxing coverage, analysis, and observation from yours truly. Just $18.99 at Amazon.com
I can't believe I bought this.
I have watched fighters for the past two hours I've never heard of.
My love for the sport has really faded.
Now, my wife wants to go out for a good steak dinner! Really?!?!
I am not winning this weekend.
7 day free trial. It will be canceled tonite!
I'm not a fan of any boxers today. I enjoy watching the fights, but I'm far from a fan.
However, this guy has made me his Number 1 fan!π

Incredible fight last night!
I don't say that often for heavyweights, but this fight was top-notch.
Usually, I turn heavyweight fights off after a few rounds. When I saw the way both fighters were jabbing, setting things up, I said to myself, "This is gonna be a good fight!" ππΎππΎ
What the hell is going on??? This dude has a documentary on Tubi!!
He's a tourist in boxing. I've forgotten more than he'll ever know!! Just kiddingπ€£ππ€£
Happy for ya, @IceJohnScully ππΎππΎππΎππΎ
Washington is looking like garbage, so I'll watch the Iceman!!
My tweet after seeing only six rounds.
Before the fight, I had Canelo winning a close decision.
I really thought Crawford would fade down the stretch. It was just the opposite.

I am up early re-watching a fight that was a masterpiece.
I was wrong.
I thought Canelo would catch up to Crawford down the stretch, and it didn't happen.
After the 6th rd, I knew it was over.
My heart was with Crawford for taking on such a huge challenge; not my mind. ππΎ
I just thought of something. This may be the first era with three great fighters retiring undefeated:
Crawford
Inoue
Usyk
Unless they stay too long. Which they always do.
