Hello :) Thank you for your corrections. There are still some mistakes,though. My fight with Juan Gomez is not listed(6th. round win by decision in Cabo san Lucas,Mx. Oct 27th. 2001). My name is Michaelangelo not Michalengelo. I should be listed as a junior-lightweight. All of my fights have been at 130lbs., with the exception of the following: 2002-01-31(126lbs.) 2001-03-25(135lbs.) 2000-12-29(148lbs.) 2000-11-30(135lbs). Hope this helps. Thanks again! :)

Hello Mike R. Thanks for your help :) I was born in Chicago,Illinois. I fight out of Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym in Hollywood,Ca. I went through arbitration and got out of that ragedy management deal I was in.

So, I'm a free agent. If you know of any honest

managers out there give me a holler. I fight orthodox. Oh, I'm 5'9 :)

You certainly have one of the most original names that I have ever seen!

Hello Barry With a name like Michaelangelo Lynks, I figured"why do I need a nickname?" :) Or maybe it's becouse I can't think of anything that goes with it

Maybe you can think of something!

"The Artist"

Michaelangelo · Post by **Michaelangelo** » 03 Feb 2004, 14:41

Hello wsbuf
How would I be introduced?:
Michaelangelo "The Artist" Lynks
"The Artist" Michaelangelo Lynks
Or maybe Prince's version
"The Artist Formely Known As Michaelangelo Lynks"

Hello John
I have to start knocking them out first(10fights-1k.o.)

I was going to suggest a nickname that made reference to Michelangelo's David sculpture ("Hands of Stone" or something highly original like that ;)), but I guess with that KO ratio it might not be a good idea.

Anyway, good luck with your career! Hope to see you on TV one of these days.

p.s.: Since you train at Wildcard - any word on James Toney? How's he doing?

Hey, maybe you could grow your hair out all poofy and go as "The Paintbrush".

You know I do alot of sparring with welterweights and even they say I hit pretty hard. I guess I do have a tendancy to have a guy hurt and instead of finishing him off I "admire my work"

Maybe I should start sitting down on my punches and getting these guys outta here

P.S.James' surgery went great! The docter said that since it tore clean it was easier to fix. He should be back in the summer.

Perhaps, "The Artist Formerly Known As!" Nah, I'm sure we can come up with something good!

Hiya, Michaelangelo:

Ah, that sounds like a classic case of Sven Ottke Syndrome to me. Everyone assumes he's totally feather-fisted, then Mundine mouths off and gets him riled, and WHAM! ;)

Glad to hear it. Now we just need to find some way to get James himself to pay us a visit.

Re. potential nicknames, I was thinking that involves the word "Canvas", as in painting one or putting a guy down on one. The problem is, how do keep it both short and still make it clear that it's the OTHER guy that's supposed to be tasting the canvas. I mean, if you were to go as Michaelangelo "The Canvas Man" Lynks, then the first time you got KDed or KOed after that, you'd never live it down.

I guess "The Painter" is as good as anything we've come up with, but to me it sounds better in Spanish: "El Pintor". Hey, you're based in California, so why not do it in Spanish? Might be a good way to get some of the Latino folks to root for you, to boot.

Try it - Imagine you're fighting for the championship, and Michael Buffer is introducing you:

...Michaelangelo "El Pintooooooooooooooooooorrrrrr" Lynks .... Lynks!!!

You know I kind of like "El Pintor". Do you know if anyone who wasn't Spanish ever used a Spanish nickname?

Does have a nice ring to it, don't it?

I seem to recall seeing at least of couple of guys (both African-American) with Spanish nicks, but can't recall either of their names. (And maybe their mom was Latino, or something.) Even if not, you could be the first.

Being from Cali is all the excuse you need.

I wonder if having a Spanish girlfriend counts.

It sure doesn't hurt ... except maybe in the "so good" kind of way. ;)
