Mayweather says if Garcia agrees to fight at 135, they can make
the fight happen in 90 days.

Wish I was still in the boxing scene and in the DMV. Would love
to go watch Davis train. One huge advantage of boxing at the
University of Maryland as compared to other schools we competed
against (like Penn State, Loch Haven, etc...), we were in a hot
bed of amateur and professional boxing talent and no shortage of
gyms to visit/train at. And at the time, the school had forbid
us to do any sparring on campus, so we had no choice but to go
to DC gyms to train in order to get sparring in.
Had the opportunity to be in the gym training with top amateur
and professional talent. And even got to spar with them too.
Invaluable experience. Some invaluable a s s whoopings too,
lol.
I remember my last semester at school, due to my class schedule,
2 of my gym days had to be middle of the afternoon, when it was
usually pretty empty. A friend of mine was a big boxing fan,
and asked if he could tag along with me to the gym, just to be a
fly on the wall and watch. He'd never been in a boxing gym
before. So I say sure. It's usually just me and maybe 1 or two
other people in there anyway at that time, so you won't even
have to worry about finding a spot to stay out of the way or
anything.
So I'm warming up, and the head trainer comes over and says that
Dominic Wade is coming in today to workout, and asks if I'd be
up for sparring with him. Dominic at the time was one of the
best middleweight amateur prospects in the country at only 17
years old, and an olympic hopeful. I'd seen film of some of
his fights. He was great. So I say yeah no problem. So I
get my gear out, and my friend is like, "hey so what's going on
now"? And I'm like, "you're about to watch me get my a s s
handed to me by a teenager" lol. We sparred 3 or 4 rounds, he
clearly outclassed me, as he should have. Maybe I landed a
handful of clean shots on him, if that, his defense was so good.
My friend held my water in the corner for me, I swear he had
such a grin on his face at the end of round when I came back to
the corner. He thought he was just in for a day of watching me
hit the heavybag and do mitt work. watching me get tagged by a
17 year old, that was a pleasant surprise lol. There's
something very humbling about being 21 years old and getting
your a s s handed to you by a junior in highschool.
Some years ago, Wade fought GGG for the middleweight
championship. GGG KOd him in two rounds. My buddy texts me and
goes, "We all know GGG doesn't get that early KO without your
help softening Wade up all those years ago with the beatdown you
gave him sparring..." 10 years afterwards, and still busting my
chops, lol.

That�s funny�&#128514;&#128514;&#128514;. Real rap�I�d have
been laughing too if I was there�&#128514;&#128514;&#128514;
I grew up w boxing. My younger brother dabbled in it, but my
foster brother was pretty good. He held the cruiser weight
title for a minute in his prime. He wasn�t a knockout artist
per se, a lot of early career TKOs. His style was more brawler.
I hated watching his fights cuz they were sooooo boring. The
first time my mom seen him fight she complained about him using
her �good� towels in the corner�&#128514;&#128514;&#128514;. He
lost his first title fight vs Al Cole (a good friend from my
Army days and the All Army Sports program), then won the belt vs
Orlin Norris. He had an ok run, and did well for himself in the
sport. Got to fight Tommy Hearns. It was a lost, but still�it
was Tommy Hearns. Cruiser weights get no love. It�s a weird
weight class IMO �not heavy or light heavy. Even though he was
a world champ, he had no fame. He was more local and basically
only known in the boxing community.
His name is Nate �Mister� Miller�Google him
While in the Army sports program I met and became friends w a
few Olympians like Kennedy McKinney, Andrew Maynard, and Ray
Mercer. Good times at Ft Hood�
