Me And My Boxing Friends - Part I

[Kedbuka]

Very cool vid, bro'. I'm from SoCal myself (Orange County) and am a huge fan of most of the fighters pictured. Pretty neat stuff, sitting ringside and getting all those pics--wish I was you!

[rawdigga]

@Kedbuka I'm in Whittier. You just need to keep your eyes open and see what events will be here in LA and just try to attend. I try and make the best of them each time I go. Thanks for commenting.

[JohnQRandom]

I could take these guys.

[astrosfan1984]

wut bro how u been just wanted to let u know the fight of erick morales is july 17 he will fight in his hometown tijuana!

[astrosfan1984]

great video bro iam a erick morales fan!! in what fight was that when u took the pic with him?

[rawdigga]

@astrosfan1984 Thanks for taking the time to view and comment. I met Erik ringside for Rafa vs. Izzy III at the Home Depot Center in L.A.

[astrosfan1984]

@rawdigga u must be lucky be bro to be with him in ringside!! how was it to chat with him? and how did u get the seat to sit next to a legend erick el terrible morales!! he is a down to earth person!!! i think he will probably fight barrera for the 4th time theres a video of them two talking i cant wait!! thanks bro!!

[rawdigga]

@astrosfan1984 Erik was really cool. I told him he is one of my favorites all time. I told him thank you for the thrills and memories he gave me as a fan. He just nodded his head and smiled... Shook his hand, snapped the pic. I sat ringside for the Izzy vs. Rafa 1 fight and he was also sitting ringside. I didn't sit next to him though. However I did sit right next to Cotto at another fight card I attended that was pretty cool because the tables were round so we were literally next to each other.

[FlacoExxplosivo]

Name of song please...

Estan con madre las fotos!!

Suerte de pelao... I've seen some fighters but not these many & so close!!

[rawdigga]

@FlacoExxplosivo I'm not sure if I answered this but the song is called 6th Sense by Common from his album Like Water for Chocolate one of my top 5 greatest Hip Hop albums ever....

[kel1981]

Hey fella! Great vid! Not seen much of you about lately, hope your keeping well mate!

Kel

[FightNightRound4King]

[rawdigga]

Appreciate the comment fella. Thanks for taking the time to view and comment. Shane was really cool to talk to all laughs and joking around.

[rawdigga]

Yes he did and in the back it said "Cucaracha" (Roach) this was taken at the PBF vs. ODLH press conf. in Los Angeles.

[kloud51]

[BoxerBoyMartin]

[rawdigga]

[trinidad143]

Havent snapped with Tito Trinidad???? why????

[rawdigga]

Haven't had the opp. to meet him...

[dirtyperro]

Bobby Chacon always does that with fans!

[dirtyperro]

Great collection,Rawdigga. You also have a pic. with the "Solo Boxeo" hosts, nice.

[rawdigga]

Thanks man, I appreciate the comment. Yeah Bernie & Ricardo are really cool guys...

[adonisvowsen]

[asgdfgdf]

[warrkrymez]

[2008Cotto]

Damn. I am spotting Elvis in all of these photos. WTF! I thought the big E was dead a long time ago. I guess not.

[rawdigga]

[moneymay5]

[rawdigga]

Thanks...

[dcvien]

[abdumotalib1]

cool!!! thanks for sharing this...

[Firewall2153]

How did you get all of these man?

But let me ask you something .. If you have to dumb all these pictures except one!

Which picture you gonna keep?

[rawdigga]

Attending events and a lot of luck....

That's a tough question, cause 5 of those fighters are my all time fav. JMM, Chacon, ODLH, Cotto & Morales. But if I had to choose 1 I'd stay with Morales picture.

[budfr]

congratulations on your pics

[rawdigga]

Thanks...

[dirkimasu]

damn!! i only have pacmans and morales pics!! i'm so jealous now!! i'm from cebu and a lot mexican boxers are on traning here in the P.I..

[rawdigga]

You shouldn't be jealous... lol just keep going to events and someone will turn up.

[PEDRO198323]

Que suerte la tuya.

[rawdigga]

Gracias, verdad que si es suerte porque la moyoria de las veces me sorprendo al saber que esta un boxeador presente.

[bradkor]

Fuck! what a great preveleage man!

[rawdigga]

Thanks for the comment... I'm very greateful for every pic. I have.

[jbicastro]

hey man, the pacman just arrive in L.A. he is training at the wildcard gym. esta es tu oportunidad de tomar photos con el pacman. you are lucky, man, your photo album with great boxers are almost complete. i also want to make collections like yours.

[sm7755]

yah..yah..boxingstars, and your so jealous of him. how you wish it was you on this video. lol! peace.

[boxingstars]

great photos though?

[boxingstars]

anybody can ask a fighter for a picture that doesnt mean you know them or that they are your freinds i know for a fact they dont even know you?

[rawdigga]

Thanks for taking the time to post a comment. You are right ANYONE can walk up to them and ask them for a picture. I don't think I ever made claims that they were my friends or that I meet up with them for lunch. I am however good friends with at least 4 of the people in those pictures they know me by my name but still I don't walk around saying I know so and so. continued....

[rawdigga]

I am however intrigued in knowing how is that you know for a FACT that none of those people even know me that' pretty amazing that you would know that. I'm all ears whenever your ready.

[RichardBlane]

rawdigga, ignore the idiot (boxingstars) who took the time to post a shit comment. I didn't take the title "me and my boxing fans" literally, but hell, being that you're on a first name basis with a few of them makes the post even better. I'm Mark by the way, and now I'm on first name basis with soemone who's on a first name basis with someone in the boxing biz (and that's kick ass).

[poundforpoundchamp]

how you get pics with all them? lol all you need is floyd mayweather jr. then your list would be complete and maybe tyson then it would be so complete. im so jealous lol

[rawdigga]

I like to attend fights as often as time allows me to. I've been very lucky to attend fights on the night that all the big stars decided to attend also. Funny thing is I had the opp. to take a pic. with Mayweather Jr. but I passed on the chance. He did sign my Ring Mag. with him on the cover.

[sm7755]

thanks for sharing your nice pictures with the famous boxers. oh, by the way, my filipina friend said that you're so guapo. he..he..

[rawdigga]

Thank you for the comment. Tell your Filipina friend I said hola.

[rawdigga]

I accidently removed someone comment. Sorry!!

It said something about Lacys picture. Anyway thanks for your comment and hope you post something up again. This time I won't delete it... lol

[paterayeah]

dont you got a foto with don king

[NuriKG]

man u lucky!!! i wish to take i picture with erik-true warrior and also winky-hes funny

nice man

[rawdigga]

Erik was great man, and Winky was cracking jokes and laughing... Thanks for the comment.

[dbpr99]

awesome compilation with great boxers. ya, u should have one with d pacman. anyway, he's approachable & i think he's a nice guy too. as u know,morales was treated very well in the philippines when he visited there few months ago.

[rawdigga]

I hear you man, just when I was about to go hit up the Wild Card Gym Pac took off to the Philipines to train, he said something about being afraid that the Barrera camp would go and see him train and learn what hes practicing and what hes plans we're for the fight.... Maybe next time... And yeah! I know about Morales, both Mexico and Philipines are like brothers both countries we're once ruled by Spain and that's why the people share common names and look a lot alike.

[rtrujillo5150]

Hey man, really enjoyed the video and it serves as inspiration to my own collection that I just got going. I happened to catch Manny training and he was nice and I had an opportunity to snap some pictures. I was afraid that since I'm Mexican they would've thought that I was there to spy. I rounded out the night taking pictures with Paul Williams and Carlos Quintana after their fight!

[rtrujillo5150]

Small world! I just noticed on your related videos that you were at the Quintana fight as well! Did you get any pictures with fighters that night?

[rawdigga]

I recorded those videos... I was ringside. I managed to get pictures with Chris Arreola, Dan Goossen, Alex Ramos. I missed my photo opp. with Lennox Lewis BUT I did manage to get him to sign a glove for me.... Thanks for the comment.

[rtrujillo5150]

Hey bro, just got my second set of Manny pictures today. He was in my hometown of San Francisco holding a public work out and you know how it goes with the crowds but I got my pictures. So how come you didn't get a picture with Williams and Quintana?

[rawdigga]

I got there just in time as the bell rang for the 1st fight. I was planning on getting there early but traffic sucked that day. Maybe next. Also comeback to my channel sometime Sunday (3/2/08) as I'll be Ringside for Marquez-Vasquez III....

[makajam]

Awesome Pics...love the track too...need one with the Pacman...I got one at Wildcard...be on the lookout for my boy "Abner Mares" too...he's a good friend of mine.

[rawdigga]

Thanks for dropping a line man, hopefully I can catch Pac at the Wild Card Gym soon being that he'll be there training... I've seen Abner fight several times the kid looks good so far.

[dyobkire]

thank you for using one of the best hip hop tracks EVER.

[rawdigga]

Common is the shit! man.... I had a chance to see him live in a concert out here in L.A. in 1999 one of the best concerts I've been to... My boys and I snuck in the place it was a small underground venue.... Like Water for Chocolate is one of the best Hip-Hop albums of all time.

[eboyd32]

...and my favorite Common album.

[polkaspotsss]

i want to meet Michael Buffer

[rawdigga]

Hes a prick, a friend of mine walked up to him to ask him if he could snap a pic. with him and Buffer flat out ignored him. My friend then proceded to flip him off..... lol.

[sweettechnice]

Thats a cool video man. I was at the L.A. press conference for the ODLH vs Mayweather tour. I recognized some of the pictures by what Freddie and Shane were wearing. I also spoke to Oscar,Freddie and Shane and I think Shane is one of the coolest guys to talk to. I got my left glove signed by Oscar and my right glove signed by Roach,I also had a hooded sweater and I got all three of them to sign it.

[rawdigga]

That was a good press-conf. lots of people and the build up to it was really good as well. It's just too bad the fight didn't live up to it.

[polkaspotsss]

Alright, I'm starting my career with no doubts then. Expect to take pictures with me in a few years.

[polkaspotsss]

i bet dudesweet is a biased filipino. rey "boom boom" bautista has more bark than bite. anyways, i wanna be a boxer, but everyone warns me of brain damage. when you met these guys, did they seem "all there?"

[rawdigga]

I suspect hes someone with whom I chat with often or he knows someone with whom I chat with... I could def. be wrong...About your question they were all there the ONLY one that clearly showed and has shown for a while signs of the trade was/is 'School Boy' Chacon he was in many wars and had great fights with Olivares, Limon, Arguello, Boza, Lopez, Mancini.

[jnaoos]

wow a pic with el terrible..amazing.. cuz he doesnt really take pics that much..

[rawdigga]

I know, cause from a distance I saw that he was talking with his wife and about 2 people tried to get their picture taken but I guess since he was talking to his wife he just sat there. When I walked up to him he was talking with someone standing so I got beside him and thanked him for all his fights from his 1st title fight against Valdes to his last he smiled and said 'Did you enjoy them?" I said "Yes"...

[dudesweet53]

how come u dont have a pic of manny pacquiao or rey baustista...theyre awesome boxers in my opinion

[rawdigga]

Thanks for the comment...

I don't have pictures of them cause unfortunately I haven't had the pleasure of meeting them. I hope that next time Pacs out here in L.A. training in Roachs gym I can stop by and take one with Pac.

[polkaspotsss]

Jeff Lacy is my favorite. I want to meet him. Sign my left glove ;)

[polkaspotsss]

you met lacy and lou duva...lucky

[rawdigga]

Thanks for the comment.... I met Lacy when I wen't to JLC vs. Corrales 1, he was sitting in the row in front of me next to Winky. Lou I met him in a GBP card that was out here in L.A. where Librado Andrade was the main event both were real cool and friendly.

[sjbraveheart]

hey whats the name of that song

[rawdigga]

Whats going on man.. Thanks for dropping a line. Thats one of my fav. Hip Hop artist hes lyrically one of the best out there. Search "Common - 6th sense"

[nathanmania]

Man, you've meet a lot of good fighters. That's a very great experience. By the way you're lucky cuz JMM didn't molested your body. lol

[rawdigga]

I take it the JMM comment has to do with the pictures right? Well I'll tell you what I told some other people whom I've talked to about the picture. With todays technology it's possible to have a picture of anyone doing just about anything.

[axel151]

damn your lucky man, you actually met Oscar and Winky :D I truly envy you, lucky guy :)

[rawdigga]

Yeah! I was fortunate to have met them both. They were both real cool to talk to.

Actually they were all cool with me shared a few words with all of them and snapped the picture.

Thanks for the comment.

[GoMavsGo07]

At 2:38 it is actually Floyd Mayweather Sr. the father of Jr. NOT Roger Mayweather. Thought I just tell you!!!

[rawdigga]

My mistake.... LOL.... I typed Roger Sr. LOL..

Thanks for noticing that, I fixed it now.

[Oct83ber]

Hey Robert, are these the pictures that were on that website you gave me to go see? If so, you did a good job making it out of a video clip.

P.S. I love that picture of Sanchez and Gomez in the end. I actually have it on my desktop.

[rawdigga]

Yeah! man those are the pics.

I love that picture too.

Thanks for dropping a line.

[DramaMC]

YOUR NAME IS ROBERT!?!?!?! O_O

hehe cool one :) I have a friend named robert ^_^

[rawdigga]

Yup thats my name.

[goladodgers]

damn I would love to meet Nacho Berinstain.

[rawdigga]

Thanks for your comment...

Yeah! man 'Nacho' was real friendly and talkative when I met him I asked him a few questions about 'Finito' Lopez and he was cool.
