Manny exemplifies the secret to being a great boxer. Loyal, trainable, committed and humble. I've known Manny and his family for about 4-5 years now. His mother raised him and his two other brothers by herself with the help of the Saints. They're great young men. Manny can come across anything but a very gentle and kind guy in his 6'2" frame. lol Many great things can be expected from him.

Jeff Page was my first interview. Great modest guy and it was enjoyable getting to know him. Coach Johnny Pappin spoke highly of his hand speed which I didn't expect because I thought his arm muscles would inhibit his movement. I was wrong. lol Great read.
