Wow, it's not often something moves me enough to be serious but this was pretty emotional stuff. To see a once mighty fighter reduced to that is heartbreaking.
I guess I knew he was like that, in some ways he's actually more physically aware than I thought he would be but it's still shocking.
I can't believe that no boxers have ever visited him, but like the reporter said it must be an image that they cannot afford to have in their heads if they are going to step between those ropes again themselves.
One good thing about the interview though, it certainly showed that Gerald is excellently cared for by his sisters, he was clean, well dressed and looked in good physical condition.
It was also nice to see him smiling and to feel that at least he seem's happy and that his life still has some meaning,
If anything I think this video restored some dignity to him as he seemed polite, gracious and cheerful.
We shouldn't shy away from the tragically fallen, and I guess we shouldn't feel sorry for them as if he and others somehow died on the night of their accidents.
He is still alive, he still has a life, a family and hopefully a long future.
I wish him well
Makes me want to cry and shows what a brutal sport boxing really is, one minute he's the hottest thing around..the next he is as he is.. sad but true
wow thats really bad man i knew it was serious but i never saw it .. and now i no.
i really feel for the man and its shamefull that no one bar rjj has seen him, and i respect roy also for that because thats what the referee's for and roy is a real man for caring like he does and he used to stop half way thru punching and ask the ref if he wants to stop the fight and there needs to be more men with compassion like roy and the man who was interviewing gerald.
i wouldnt wish that on my worst enemy and i hope gerald lives the best life he possibly can.
I think he is, and at this point its a wonderful thing to ask for :)
Fuck off with your pointless comments like this and you can take with you your shit jokes about Margarito ducking Shambe Mitchell, almost every post you make is a waste of time.Quote:

Tragic to see any human like that, save for the likes of fucking Adolf Hitler.

You didn't and DON'T know him either, all you know is what you've read and judging from that! So it's not like you know more then they do. Did you meet Gerald? Do you know him personally?Quote:

but then again, Gerald has to suffer for the rest of his life...
For one to be glad that Gerald should be suffering at this moment is pure hatred.....such malice is unneccessary.
Gerald (whether you believe in Karma or not) paid for his mistakes he did in the past...so to laugh at him makes you as low as he once was.
Ive seen this before....The only thing that makes you feel better is the fact Gerald seems happy. He doesnt really have sense of time so everything runs together....I met his family a while back it rough but it could be worse. He can control his bodily functions he can walk,,,do things...life could be worse truth is he wasnt expected to recover as well as he did
Can someone ban him for this comment, thats a disgrace.Quote:

people need to stop thinking they can post offensive comments thinkin this is a boxing forum so i can talk like a badass tough nut.i'd rather have come constructive criticism like this , its about opinions not wanker remarks!Quote:

I find it amazing that someone can read an article and then completely judge someone by it like it's their whole autobiography when they have no clue if it's 100 percent true or not.
Why can't they say 'If the article I read was true, then..' Instead of making a blanket statement like that. because if it's found the article is untrue then that person's going to feel like a real ass hole.
By all intents and purposes Manny Pacquiao has done a lot worse then Gerald has done. I wonder if I'd wish the same on him if that happened. No I wouldn't cause I don't know the whole story and nobody should act like they do.
