    Morrison, 39, will appear in a special four-rounder, taking on Matt Weisharr, 3-0-2, 1 KO, of Atchison, Kansas.
    He's been tested around twenty times already since his comeback(All Negative), If he was dirty some Dr would try to make a name for them self and bring the positive test forward. But he should take a test before the next fight for the non believers and health reasons. All fighters should take them.

    H'm, not convinced by these 'negative' results, far from it.

    Put yourself in his position. You're a famous, high-profile case. If you are sure you are not infected, you'd go to any lengths to prove it. You'd appear on television, get a bona fide doctor, independently appointed, have tests conducted through a lab where there could be no doubt whatsoever of the result.

    Just think, if he was genuinely misdiagnosed, it would have huge implications. Thousands - tens of thousands of other cases would also have to be reviewed.

    Nah! Put it this way, I bet he still takes his medication.

    Fair or not,As long as there Is the One positive result..........he could test negative 200 times and He would still be denied a clearance to fight in anything but Small Locales or State fairs in the States again, If at all.
    Regardless of health and strictly on the comeback,I see this ending Brutaly at some point should he keep rolling the dice.No matter a 4 round "special event" and/or the Grade c or d level guys he'll be fighting. The guidelines and past examples with HIV have been set In a few cases.I remember Ruben Palasious being forced to retire as the reigning Feather champ In the early 90's when He tested positive,at the point of making alot of money .Its a tough call and I hope Morrison Is Negative and lives to be an old man but that S!!! Is not something to Play guess work with.

    The whole HIV thing still has me in wonder but if he has been tested by legit doctors more then once since the return and all came back negative then who are we to stand in a mans way from making a living.....

    Though he will never go anywhere at this stage in life but what ever

    There's got to be some way, like a series of tests with the results made public, to find out if he actually has AIDS. Like Daxx said, if he doesn't he deserves to be able to make a living.

    If another fighter is foolish enough to fight him fair enough.

    I feel sorry for the referee and the people ringside though.

    If I was a boxing commisioner and couldn't get the fight stopped, I'd at least make sure all my officials were kept safe and dressed like this

    I understand Tommy wants to fight and I respect that but I hope he would have the decency not to get in the ring if there's a shadow of a doubt in his own mind about how safe he is no matter what the test shows.
