 I had gotten 6 comp tickets for the Gonzalez/Carmon fight from Don Chargin. I decided to take my wife, our one daughter and our three sons to see the fight. We were sitting about 11-12 rows from ringside. By us; there was a guy with thousands of dollars in his hands, and he was putting all his money on Carmona, very time he made a bet his money and the money from the guy he was betting was given to my wife to hold, at the end the guy backing Carmona had $100 left and he couldn't find any more takers, so I went for it and took his last $100, well you should have seen the rush of guys trying to get their money from my wife when Rodolfo won, she didn't know who had coming what or who was who, I got my two hundred dollars from her and told her to just give the money to who ever said they won and let's get the hell out of here, which we did, and the guy that lost? Well I thought he was going to cry, he probably did since he probably lost the rent money.
