Fighter's Reflections on Boxing Career
I carry pictures of all my fights.
I've usually done it in the Baby Crenshaw fight.
You see that?
Big baby's about the size of an airplane.
I broke both my hands on his face.
I lost that fight, but that's a nice picture, don't you think?
See how it works there?
Real nice.
Come on, you having a good time?
I'll tell you, you can see I ain't too graceful.
You know what I mean?
I don't move well.
But I'll tell you, I can really swat.
You know what I mean?
I can really hit hard.
But I'm a southpaw, and nobody wants to fight no southpaw.
You know what I mean?
Huh?
Woo!
You know how I got started in fighting?
Huh?
No.
Am I talking too loud?
Three minutes!
My father, he's my old man.
It was never too smart. He says to me you weren't born much of a brain, you know
So, uh, you better start using your body, right? So I've become a fighter. Oh
You know what I mean?
Why you are you left?
My mother she said the opposite thing what she said what she said the opposite
Said you weren't born much of a body. So you better develop your brain. Did she say that?
Oh
Can I ask you a question absolutely
Why do you want to fight cuz I can't sing a dance. Hey, yo
Don't fall. Don't fall
Hey, that was terrific. I'm pretty good at this
You like the way I skate you the last fight I had I had with this guy named spider Rico
He bust my head up there. You see that scar
I'll tell you things get pretty rough in the ring
