The first time I ever went out to the Meadowlands was in 1984. I was eating in a diner on Route 17 not far from where the strip club used as Bada Bing! in The Sopranos is located. I looked over at the next table and there was Lou Duva with a couple of other guys. I got kind of excited over that brush with fame but the two guys I was with had no idea who he was.

I once had Larry Holmes and Don King walk right by me at Caesars. I was amazed at how small in stature they both looked.

If you missed the Lemiuex/Stevens fight, I suggest you catch it on HBO. Wow knock out....

This.

One of the cleanest knockouts since Pacquiao ate canvas nearly 5 years ago.
