    Default R.I.P. Michael "Dynamite" Dokes

    Michael Dokes, Former Champ, Passes Away at 54 - Boxing News

    Seems he had his demons to say the least, but its always sad when a former heavyweight champ passes.

    I believe I've only ever watched his fight with Holyfield. I'm sure many posters here have fond memories of his fights.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    Shocker. He had fast hands and good talent but 80's heavies loved their drugs. His fight with Holyfield was quality. RIP.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Just Googled Dokes and it brought back some memories, specifically the Coetzee vs Dokes fight. His whole career was sketchy, great for a few fights and then not so good. It makes you wonder, it seems like his whole life was lived under a very dark cloud, with lighting ready to strike at any moment. Mickeal Dokes, RIP.
