No not a boxing scout. I wish though lol! From like 2009-2011 and a little bit in 2015-2016 I used to be pretty close with John David Jackson up in Fort Lauderdale and Jorge Rubio in Miami. A couple other gyms too. I was friends with MOST of their fighters. In the 2009-2011 days, Dvds were still relevant, not all cameras had phones lol, and I just as a hobby would video tape sparring at both their gyms quite often. Of course not everyone would let me, but most did. Some of the boxers even encouraged it because I’d always bring them a copy on DVD a day or 2 later. I have some pretty good footage, never released to the internet. Probably one of the most notable sparring sessions I filmed was Yordenis Ugas vs. Nate Campbell. I have Campbell and Ugas vs. a couple other people as well. I got Teofimo Lopez a couple times at 13 years old. Andre Dirrell vs. Anthony Dirrell which was pretty darn interesting lol. Magomed Abdusalamov vs. Fres Oquendo. Ahmed Elbiali vs. almost every boxer around his weight in south Florida. Luis Ortiz a few times. A few other Cubans. Jean Pascal once. King Mo. A few other notables. . . I didn’t always get so lucky though. Couldn’t film Yuriorkis Gamboa, Luis Franco, Breidis Prescott, couple others lol. Totally understandable of course. There’s tons of others but I’m trying to think of the names that people may recognize. I’d like to give it more time, but one day I’d love to upload the entire collection to YouTube. I feel like the longer I wait, the more epic it’d be. Hundreds of sparring sessions from a couple decades ago all of the sudden randomly popping up on YouTube. I think some would go pretty viral. I have Joel Julio knocking someone completely unconscious
