Q&A Tommy Morrison!
By David Finger
“The Duke” says he was diagnosed “false positive” for HIV. Planning immediate comeback.
It would be hard for any boxing fan from the 1990s not to have some vivid memory of Tommy “The Duke” Morrison. Perhaps it was his co-starring role in Rocky V, or his amazing string of first round knockouts on ESPN early in his career. Perhaps it was his brutal knockout loss to Ray Mercer, or his come-from-behind victories against Carl “The Truth” Williams and Joe Hipp. It just seemed that Tommy Morrison was a fighter who was made to be a boxing superstar. Of course his pigmentation didn’t hurt, but lets face it: the Duke could fight, and you could make a really strong argument that had he fought in this era of boxing rather that the era of Holyfield, Bowe, Tyson, and Lewis, that he might very well be a champion right now.

:coolclick: beat me to that one.
Morrison is dellusional.
Who in the hell would risk their lives getting into the ring with someone that's got the virus...dormant or not.
One fighter get's cut...then the other does...blood get's all over each other in a clench & then you got another fighter risking the taint.

Yep..........that ref was a little bitch alright......he should have jumped in between by about the 4th or 5th connect as it was obvious that Morrison was out.
Re: Tommy Morrison making comeback
As most know I'm a huge Morrison fan, But this seems highly unlikely. I would love to see him just stay retired. But if he does really comeback, I would at least like to see him win a couple by Ko, Maybe just fight a bunch of nobodies and get a higher ratio of wins and Ko. But in reality, He needs to get matches first, But who the hell would fight him?? I bet somebody will. Marcus Rhodes gave him a chance right after he got diagnosed. I just hope he doesn't get hurt or worse, Transfer the illness.
