Would Ricky Womack have gone on to being a world champion if he had not shot that man in the video store whilst robbing it? It's a shame that this guy had such good guidance under Emanuel Steward but obviously he had his own personal battles and this got the better of him. He nearly made it to the Olympics but lost twice in a box off with Holyfield. He was the number one ranked amateur in the world I think and he had beaten Holyfield before, but he didn't make the team. He served 15 years in prison and Tyson was his Olympic trials housemate and Tyson helped get his career on track after prison. He committed suicide though after an argument with his wife.
