Raul Vega was my Godfather. He and my father were young friends in Mexico City where I think Raul worked at a tire repair shop while boxing in his early years. My dad was a taxi driver at the time and an aspiring bull fighter.. Raul was a handsome young man and very kind. And he was a very good fighter, was also a Pan-American champion before turning pro. He used to come by my house to visit, and he would bring me the best toys from the US where he fought many times. And whenever he departed, he would always shake my hand and would slide me dollar bills or pesos so that nobody would take his gifts from me. I last spoke with him in 85 when I wanted to become a fighter myself. He said to come on over, but regretably I didn't make it. So I never saw him again, I still became a fighter, but in the arena of social work. "Pio-pio-pow-pow" he used to say was his best combination. And in this boy's eyes, full of awe and wonder, Raul Vega was and is the greatest champion that ever lived!
He was my Godfather. He befriended my father when they were both very young working in Mexico City. I adore him for his kindness. I was 2 years old when he fought Rudkin. "Pio-pio-pow-pow" padrino!
