My son is growing up little by little. 2008 started out great with him winning the 2008 Naitonal Silver Gloves. Around this time last year he won the Junior Olympics for the third year in a row. Then the game of life began to deal us sad cards. My wife's grandma pasted away. Then my wife cousin cras...

Rog, I fought under the name of Rudy Ramirez. I go by Rudy Orozco now but that another story for another day. Ruben Castillo, Maunel Lujan use to spar all the time. I hung out with Manuel's brother John in high school, San Diego High. I use to train in San Ysidro and my coach was Norman Bumpy Parra,...

Hi Rick, I see your out there. Your buddy Rick Session is home from vacation. :evil: Hope all is well with you and the wife ( your still married right?) The family is still here and Mo is getting back in the gym this week coming. Took about three months off so that he could miss it and then love it ...

Hi Rog,

Thats the place where I grew up. You saw alot of the bouts that I saw, like Famoso Gomez beating Art Hafey in Tijuana at the bullring. Wow! I never meet anyone who saw that. You might have seen me box. Do you recall Manuel Lujan, Ruben Castillo during that time?

Maybe if we invested some of our internet writing time to putting together ...

Also Mike Ayala ...

I was at the 75 National GG & AAU , if that helps

Paul Gonzales couldn't cut it in the pros

I wanted to add a few notes on The Hitman. I fought him in the 75 National GG in Knoxville Civic Coliseum in Tennesse. I lost a decison to him. :box: He beat a kid named Wardell Williams of Kansas City prior to boxing me. I meet a kid from Low, Mass. named Mark Garrow. I represented the Westcost Reg...
