Despite being maybe 5' 6" and maybe 125 pounds, he was a street fighter as long as I knew him, but he didn't show an interest in boxing until after high school.

A publicist, trying to distinguish Bobby from the bazillion other Latino fighters in Southern California, had Bobby enroll at Cal State-Northridge. He became (for a time) "Schoolboy" Bobby Chacon.
