Ex-boxer Etienne gets 150-year sentence
Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. - Former heavyweight boxer Clifford Etienne, who learned to fight while serving a prison sentence, was sentenced to 150 years behind bars for a crime spree that included an attempt to shoot two police officers.
Etienne was convicted in March of attempted second-degree murder and several other charges after forcing his way into a Baton Rouge check cashing business and stealing more than $1,900 last August. He tried to hijack one car with two children inside, then hijacked another with two children inside before wrecking the second vehicle.
Police said Etienne tried to fire at the police officers who responded, but his gun jammed.
Jurors rejected his lawyers' argument that Etienne didn't know what he was doing because he was high on drugs and suffering from brain injuries sustained from boxing.
State District Judge Wilson Fields sentenced Etienne to 150 years, with no chance of parole, on Thursday.
Etienne, a former high school football star in Louisiana, was paroled in 1998 after serving 10 years for attempted armed robbery.
He then became a professional boxer, nicknamed the "Black Rhino." In 2001, Etienne signed a multifight deal with Showtime, but his career ended soon after a 49-second first-round loss to Mike Tyson in February 2003.
In January 2004, then-Louisiana Gov. Mike Foster denied a pardon to Etienne.

He can die three times, come back to life each one and still be in jail.

Shame he wasn't tried in Britain, he'd be out on parole in 2 years.
Plus if he was here illegally they would give him a house

Watch it bilbo.
Sheriff Blair is in town now, and he's gonna take down all the criminals in our society and destroy every bad man in the country.
He's getting hard-bat on the bad elements in the country, and immigration is going to be one tough crack-down.
Th cynics among you might suggest he's pandering to public opinion, but in my view, with a man as sincere as Blair, I can't do anything but trust him :p

Last year I watched a documentary on Dicsovery Times about prison boxing. Cliff was a main feature. They showcased some of his behind bars bouts. It was a dang good show.

Yeah, I like the bit where it says he tried to hijack one car but failed, then hijacked another but crashed it. Finally he tried to shoot two cops but his gun jammed.
It sounds like they could base a whole episode of 'World's Dumbest Criminals' around him :P

Re: S*** Ex-boxer Etienne gets 150-year sentence!
But ike was experiencing signs of psychosis before he tried to rape the prostitute. He wasn't using it as an excuse. He was mentally ill and suffering hallucinations. No wonder, after the Tua fight, i can see why. What a slugfest.

Re: S*** Ex-boxer Etienne gets 150-year sentence!
This Ettienne joker needs to learn how to fight better now.... after Tyson, Ibeabuchi And that weak SHEILA James Butler all being in & out of prisons for a while, im sure any boxer would have a BIG red target on their head. Seeing this guy fight, HE IS GUNNA GET HURT inside. BUT hopefully someone has already nearly beaten the life out of that WEAK PRICK James Butler! ;) ;D :o :lickish:

The guy is a criminal for goods sake. He should never be allowed to go out to a civilized society again. Never. He is not just a one-timer, he can’t find out to behave himself. Lock that fucker in the dark and forget him.

True he never lived up to his potential. Then again a heavyweight who can throw 100 punches a round like he did in an 8 rounder (800 punches he threw) sure enough doesn't have knock out power. And his chin didn't take it too well. Kinda like Jame Tillis used to be in the 1980s.

Actually I thought he had a lot of potential at one stage in his career. ;)
But my point is, it is a complete waste to see anyone get locked up for 150 years, not that he did not seemingly deserve it...

Re: Shit Ex-boxer Etienne gets 150-year sentence!
It's too bad the dumass had to go and ruin his fukin life. He wasn't a "shit" boxer, I mean he sure as well wasn't a world beater or nothin, but he was top 10 contender, which is more than most of us could ever be. Seemed like a nice enuff guy in interviews and shat, but now looks like he was mostly just a con artist. He for sure took a dive against Tyson, that was a waste of money that damn fight. What a stupid bastard Etienne is, no chance of parole, his life is over. :-\
