Ben has trained at my gym before. He was being trained by Jeramy Freeman back in 2006-2007. I congratulated Ben at a National qulifiying show that he won back in May of 06'. He seemed humble. I dont know why he went the direction he did. He called out Ronnie at one point. He made boasts that he couldnt back up. At least when Kamali's mouth was causing trouble back in 2001 he was placing high at pro shows (2001 ASC). Ben talked trash before he even entered a pro event. At a certain point words just dont cut it. You need to produce. I hope he learned his lesson.
