Reader Questions on Style, Boxing and Drug Dealing

Finally, with a little downtime after London Fashion Week and post-week madness, I had a chance to answer some questions from readers sent to The G Manifesto:

Q: Should you ever button the 2nd button on a two-button suit?

Michael Mason: You should almost never button the second button on a two-button suit. The only exception is if it is a “high-two” like some of the suits that Ozwald Boateng has been busting out lately. If you don’t button the second button on those, it looks weesh.

Q: Recently, I saw you sparring at The Wildcard Gym in Los Angeles. I noticed you were working off the double jab and throwing a left hook off that. Would you say that is your signature combination?

Michael Mason: If you saw me sparring at Wildcard recently, then you saw me take some heavy shots. I was super hungover those days. But that is neither here nor there. Back to your question, I do work off the double jab frequently. I don’t know if its my “signature combination” with the hook though. My favorite combo lately has been the jab, “ride out” then counter the opponents jab with a straight right over the top. Very Mayweatheresque.

Q: Hows it going? I live in Dana Point and want to start dressing well, I’ve asked around and no one seems to know shit about tailors etc, do you happen to know of a good one and or any good shops in the area?

Michael Mason: Yeah, Orange County is pretty clueless on that front. However, you are in luck. I have a really good friend in Newport Beach, who swears by Gary’s in I think Fashion Island.

If I recall correctly, I have been there before and picked up some ties and pocket squares a while back. Place is pretty dope and will definitely be able to steer you in the right direction.

Q: Mr. Mason, I am entering my junior year of college, and am becoming a member of the weed trade. I will be living in a building with about 800 students, most of them freshmen and sophomores (not too smart).

The issue I have is that I only deal in the best weed, and cannot possibly compete with the wanks selling shwag at 50-60 an eighth. I need to charge 70 to smoke for free, and about 75 an eighth to make a profit.

I have no doubt that what I will be moving is the best on campus (it will make you see god.) How do I take my quality product and advertise it properly so that the true afficianodo’s come to me? My strategy right now is to reach out to a few smoakers I know and get them to vouch for my product on their floors. What further advice do you have so that I can distinguish myself from the wannabee freshmen who sell stuff which could be confused as oregano?

Michael Mason: I think you will be fine. In any business, a superior product advertises itself.

Yuriorkis Gamboa defeats Orlando Salido and Brandon Rios stops Anthony Peterson

Yuriorkis Gamboa defeats Orlando Salido and Brandon Rios stops Anthony Peterson

In a featherweight unification bout at The Palms, Yuriorkis Gamboa (19-0, 15KOs) won a twelve round unanimous decision over Orlando Salido. Gamboa was quicker and better is almost every round. Gamboa suffered a flash knockdown in the eight round. He came back in the twelfth to send Salido down twice. On the second knockdown, Gamboa lost a point for hitting Salido while he was down. The scores were 116-109, 114-109 and 115-109.

Lightweight Brandon Rios (25-0-1, 18KOs) pulled off a minor upset with a dominating performance to defeat previously undefeated Anthony Peterson (30-1, 20KOs) by way of a seven round disqualification. After a good first round, Peterson lost his focus and began to brawl with Rios, the much bigger and stronger man. In the fifth, Rios dropped Peterson with a counter hook. In the sixth, Peterson landed a series of low blows to lose two points. In the seventh Peterson landed another series of low blows and the ref had no choice but to call for the DQ.

Yuriorkis Gamboa continues to impress with a showdown with Juan Manuel Lopez on the horizon. Gamboa really needs to keep his hands up though.

Washington, DC’s own Anthony Peterson appeared to have a meltdown in the ring. You wouldn’t know it from the fight, but Peterson actually has good movement and a good jab. I have no idea why he decided not to use them.

In other boxing news, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Ricky Hatton had a rough week. But we don’t need to get into all that negativity here. Doing a little blow is not the end of the world.

On a positive note, Devon “The Great,” Alexander will be fighting Timothy “The Desert Storm” Bradley. Should be an excellent boxing match for purists.
