“Si was a great guy and a good friend. As a manager, he always fought for his boxers. If nobody else cared, Si stalo; Ako oni to ne mogu, Si would do it. I was with him nearly 10 years and nobody was throwing money our way. It was hard for us. I only made enough money in a few fights, kao kad sam osvojio titulu, where he took any money. If Si had your back, da bi išao u rat s vama.

“On bi voziti se od Key West u Miami da me vidi, ali, umjesto prenoćiti, on bi voziti natrag. On bi me zovu me zovu 10 times while he drove home. He was so happy to get me a promotional contract (AK Promocije u Koreji) a je zaista radujem moja borba oktobar 4^th in Korea. I’m dedicating that fight to Si and we’ll be doing something special.”
