Fighters who have been an inspiration to you.

Nigel Benn, when I was growing up he was fighting and he was serious. He didn't have the cartoon character of the likes of Bruno and Eubank. He wasn't over the top like Naz. He was just plain and simple, the Dark Destroyer. A boxer, a champ with a respect for the sport and a good work ethic.

And an excellent taste in music.

Joe Louis wasnt a 'nice guy'

When Joe Louis asked Lena Horne, with whom he was then having a relationship, to keep score for him at a Hollywood golf benefit, the singer refused -- she was entertaining troops that day. Joe hit her with a left hook. Then he started to choke her. In his 1978 autobiography, written with Edna and Art Rust Jr., Louis said that the only thing that saved Lena's life was an aunt in the next room who threatened to call the police.

wtf is up with boxers and wife beating?

Just off the top of my head i've heard allegations of tyson, ali, gatti, mayweather,ward,pavlik,chavez and a whole bunch of others.

One incident does not define a mans entire life.

It defines his personality.

I mean.. do you think a man who beats a woman has a loving personality?

Personality changes within a lifetime.

Personality changes within a lifetime.

If a man commits homicide but then later says he shouldn't have done it because it's wrong, does it change anything?

George Foreman. IDK if his tv personality was all a charade to sell grills & burgers, but the man seemed genuinely to be a nice guy. I'm a ice guy.

Can you show one bit of proof that this wasn't just one isolated incident? Did Horne ever come out and accuse him of being a woman beater? His wife? Anyone? Why doesn't his generosity and loyalty define his personality?
