Are you guys fricken serious? Big boy is not a good interviewer. It actually just hit me watching this video that Big almost always try’s to talk over his guest and it seems like he’s just waiting for his turn to talk. And he always try’s to include himself or compare himself or tell a story about how he did something or went thru something similar to what they did. Big is always waiting for the opportunity to make things about himself. That being said Big reminds me a lot like my girlfriend

At the 19.30min mark when he said 'after my mother died, my life was over, I wanted to just quit everything, I wanted to quit life' - I felt the exact same way when my father passed when I was 36 years old. I can't imagine going through it at 17 years old.

I fee l the same man, this guy has a lot of pain but tried to live his life way he could - never ducked anyone fought like a warrior while being respectful at the same time. He may have his vices but him owning up to it and saying yes i did that but im the happiest in this monet of time in life is all i needed to hear. Oscar- lots of love from a fan in Australia my friend.

Yeah but the guy wasnt too bad when he wasn’t promoting fights.. look at a video when Tito Trinidad visited Nicaragua and Mayorga was there. Dude was thrilled to see Trinidad and it seemed like they hadn’t seen each other in a while and we’re genuinely happy to see each other.

This was a great interview!! I'm about 5 years older than Oscar and followed his career from the moment NBC did the special about him (prior to the 1992 Olympics) committing to win the gold medal for his mother. I had tears in my eyes when he won the gold medal. I cheered loudly when he crushed Fernando Vargas. I was disappointed when he lost to Trinidad. There was a time when I started to hate him. However, I now realize that I've never walked in his shoes. I wish him all the best.
