Joined today by heavyweight boxer, Fres "Fast Fres" Oquendo. Fres talks about growing up in the infamous Lathrop Holmes projects in Chicago. How boxing kept him away from drugs and violence, and what's the current political climate now in the windy city with all the shootings we see on TV. We discuss his illustrious amateur boxing career where he amassed over 100 wins and under 10 defeats, and how a marijuana bust cost him a chance to represent the U.S. in the Olympics. Fres talks about turning pro, winning his first 22 fights and then dealing with the shady political underworld that is the world of Boxing. We chat about fighting Holyfield, Ruiz, James Toney and why the fight with Mike Tyson in 2001 never happened. "Fast Fres" breaks down his lawsuit that has been all over the news, what's next and why even as a # 1 ranked contender he never got his title fight. We talk about his F.O.B.A charity and all the incredible things he does to give back to the community, how his charity delivered over 1000 meals to Puerto Rico and Mexico after disaster struck and how all this led him to boxing legend Wilfredo Benetiz. From mentally dealing with his first loss to David Tua to meeting Ali, and of course his beef with Dan Rafael. All this and much more.
