Joe Manley is special because he was the first fighter I signed and also my first world champion. Team USA didn’t send a team to the 1980 Olimpjadi (because of a boycott) and Joe was lost. Nobody expected him to on to win the world junior welterweight title like he did. The pinnacle of my career was my first heavyweight champion, Michael Benntt. Bob Arum called asking if I wanted to make some money using Bentt in a tune-up fight for Tommy Morrison, who had a big money fight lined up with Lennox Lewis. Michael knocked him out in the first round (for Morrison’s WBO heavyweight title). UHasim Rahman is like my kid. Mill Iran Barkley biex James Toney, I have stories about all of them.”

I’ve met so many good people in boxing. I’ll tell you, I’m going to enjoy being inducted into the New York State Hall of Fame, issa (he joked), a lot more than if I’d been dead going in. I’m honored.
