keltoi Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 it sounds tragic but I believe his surroundings made his fate less predetermined than it looks maybe... lots of people grow up in tough surroundings, have hard luck stories, but not a lot of people become champion boxers in 3 different weight divisions and keep bouncing back after blow after blow after blow... ok eventually his demons won but he was an amazing guy.

Braintree Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 His last spell in jail came after he failed a drug test in 2010 but once again he returned to the ring, earning three more victories to end his career with 59 wins, five defeats and two draws in one of the most extraordinary sporting lives of all time. What a fucking record. Five defeats over his entire career? That man was a badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
