My greatest strength? Humility. Biggest weakness? It's possible I may be too awesome.

About Me

Washed up,brain damaged ex-fighter! YO! Somebody quit ringing that bell,I can't concentrate!!! I was born in Wilmington,NC and grew up between Wilmington and Chicago.I feel lucky, it's like having two hometowns. I love both places equally! I moved to Chicago after school to devote myself full-time to boxing and had many great years as a boxer and trainer.I have boxed and fought all over,from arenas to alleys and everywhere in between! I was undefeated as a pro boxer (8-0 6 KOs),until a shoulder injury forced me to give it up.I also competed and trained in Tuff-Man and MMA.I have worked with and trained many people since. I love teaching and passing down what I've learned. Now my goal is to open a full scale boxing gym in the Chapel Hill area,but that's a year or two down the road.In the meantime,I'm just working my ass off and enjoying hanging out with my friends.I have met so many awesome people here that I wish there were two of me so I could have time to hang out with them all! I love making my friends laugh,and at the same time my friends say I'm a great guy to walk down a dark alley(or railroad tracks!) with!I was raised to be a gentleman and to be respectful of others and try to do both at all times. Oh yeah, I once challenged Lance Armstrong to a "Who has more testicles contest"...I won by 4!!!The thing I am most proud of though is my son Brady.He is the coolest little man ever. I have learned as much from him as he has from me.Other than Brady,my friends are my family. Myspace Graphics

A.Ashe -------------------------- "Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round-remembering that the man who fights one more round is never whipped." James Corbett -------------------------"Mine's the one that says Bad Motherfucker on it." -Jules ------------------------- There ain't nothing like being in the corner, and the trainer is whispering in your ear and another guy is putting in your mouthpiece. Five seconds to go, then boom! The bell. It's more exciting than looking down a cliff. -George Foreman
