KOd a pretty decent to good fighter in Panama.
44 years old n won't hang em up.
Don't tell me he's broke.
He is broke, ego the size of his brain and trying to reclaim his youth. Mid life crisis.Quote:

I would selfishly rather he did not fight but fair dues the bloke, he still can fight at level at 44 that 99.9% of 24 year old pro boxers can only dream of.
I don't think he was ever the best fighter on the planet. He was fun in his prime though.
I think there was a strong argument to say he was from De La HoyaI to ForrestI; particularly as Jones Jr was going through an uninspiring run. But I understand these things are not going to be definitively answered.Quote:

He didn't get caught by boxing. He got caught when Balco went down. He was on the designer stuff.Quote:

Shane and Roy should take a long vacation and let youth have the floor.
I'm going to let you in on a lil secret...most top pro athletes take steroids and never get caught.Quote:
