Honestly, is there a NICER retired athlete? What gentle and kind man. He is so polite, he made sure to compliment the young man interviewing him a couple of times. Thanks! This interview lifted my spirits.

He was also that nice and polite during interviews when he was fighting.
He’s such a likable guy!!
Glad Gerry is such an awesome role model ..I respect the work him and Larry are doing also.
An incredibly honest, real, genuine, authentic man.
Brilliant, cool young interviewer showing respect, Gerry being the gent he is. Should be on TV more.
Fabulous interview. The most lucid boxer I’ve ever heard. All the best Gerry.
