Brahim was demotivated and didn't want to train anymore...saying he put his life in danger (and when you see at which weight class he fought for his body.it's definitely true). He had the feeling that the TV were ready to pay millions regarding soccer, but only penny for him...

so he's back, but I don't know if he still has the motivation...I doubt
Well we know our boxing around here...
We know about the smallest fighters all the way to the biggest.

Thanks for the info.
I could have sworn I read something about an injury.

I don't know him personally, but boxing world in France is a small world.
I hope he recovers from this as he's def. a talented boxer.
I wonder if the option to recolate was there for him?
To the UK or the US...
