I used to walk by Jake every Saturday morning at the same time on east 56th street where I lived in the late 80's and he always walked with his head down so I never bothered him. My father knew him and told Jake that I never acknowledged him because I was afraid I might piss him off. Jake said, "oh no, he doesn't have to be nervous I'm just always in thought." I finally had the chance to say hello to him and from then on it was always,, hey kid how ya doin?

He should have been a trainer, he seems like he would make a good motivator.

Great job with the interview. I am a life long boxing fan who used to collect old fight films, books, magazines etc... Dabbled around in the sport a bit to. Once in gets into your blood it never leaves you. I'm 53 and still workout on the bags and spar a bit. What a thrill it must have been for you to meet JAke. Most people don't realize ho different boxers are from other athletes...the old timers at least. Great guys. Many as gentle as lambs. Again...nice job.

@oldschoolsaint Sorry, I didn't see your comment. That wasn't actually me interviewing Jake, it was just on a DVD of mine and I thought I'd put it up on here. You're dead right about boxers being a special breed, though (especially the old timers). And as you say, often most of them are good guys too. :)
