I remember watching him fight Matthew Hilton I think in 86. He was totally shot and his reflexes were totally gone even before the fight. The knockout was a devastating one he suffered yet he continued to fight on. He suffered another brutal knockout against another fighter about two years later. He was not even a shell of his former self yet commission after commission let him continue to fight.

We see this sort of thing taking place with Holyfield now. With every fight he takes, he will lose more of his future even when he wins a fight.
