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
