i think jake lamotta is still around but he must be well into his 90's so not sure
if he still would be up for long talks about his boxing days. if i had to pick one
it would probably be him.
i would be much more interested in talking to the fighters from the 40's and 50's,
the golden era, but most of them are gone. i know bowe is a little crazy but i still
would be honored to meet him. livingston bramble was a character. wish hector
camacho was still alive. big george. greg haugen. azuma nelson. i have met and
known a few people who won various titles up to major worlds. i boxed in the late
80's to early 90's and looked up to the pros from that era.

Jake is still around, had the pleasure to interview him about a year and a half ago on my old radio show, sharp as a damn tack still, it was quite an honor.

I think that I would pick Mike Tyson. His interviews nowadays are instant classics. You will have a hard time finding a boxer that has been through more ups and downs than this guy. You can gain a lot of knowledge from a person that has been through so many extremes. I can't think of a living person that has been on a longer journey than Mike Tyson.

Ray Arcel. Admittedly he was a coach and not a fighter however.

Also is a legend but the question is who would you like to talk to and gain knowledge from. Conor would be far more fascinating to talk to with his views on human movement and his supreme self confidence.

Mike Tyson.

Tyson is a student of the sport & has an encyclopaedic knowledge of boxing.

He would make a great forum member. :OhYes:
