R.I.P Tommy "The Duke" Morrison

Feel sorry about the whole thing really. Here's the Great White Hope if there ever were one, and in his prime he gets cut down ....... then he says it was a false diagnosis, then he tries a comeback, then he dies. Tragic series of weird misunderstandings.

I never liked him that much and when he beat Foreman I liked him even less and loved seeing him KO Ruddock here and also get railed here: but the whole thing is sad, what a hard-luck Oklahoman, like something out of a John Wayne movie really. What a life.

The biggest tragedy is that he could have had better quality of life and for longer if he hadn't been in denail about his illness.

AIDs isn't the outright death sentence that it once was, HIV isn't yet curable but AIDs is so much more treatable and managable nowdays.

Yep.

Hiv used to be a ten year window but it can be extended to 25-30 years with todays medication.
