@LivinFree999....@LivinFree999 On July 7, 10 Micheal replied to say "Yes, he did get the message from us. Right before jumping into the Ring... lol...He was shocked to say the Least (x)(~) Like what are the 0dds that 23 yrs later he finds out who phoned him : ) And he did say that He loved those Boots.

In 1987...Me & my friend Rena phoned Micheal at the Caesars' Palace in Las Vegas just minutes before he was going into the Ring for a Fight...Rena's Father Rino Orsato an Italian Custom Boot & Shoe Maker from Vancouver BC asked us to give him a message for Rino...( He had just finished Making a pair of White Leather Boots for Micheal & wanted to wish him Good Luck : ) I always wondered if he really did get that msg before the Fight...Well, on July 6, 2010 I contacted Micheal to ask him : )

very good match, iran is a lot bigger an stronger, but u gotta admitt that Olajide can take a hit pretty good, hes also really good as dodging, an he has a good job, Iran just had too much power for him though
