      Benitez apparently did a lot of drugs and rarely trained for fights. Ive heard stories that McCall was a real bad substance abuser. JCC drank a lot as well.

            Monzon is, by far, the all time king.

              Most 1980's heavyweights.
              Young Griffo was a raving alcoholic
              Esteban DeJesus and Mike Ayala did heroin
              Jose Napoles, Carlos Ortiz, Jake LaMotta, Sonny Liston, Arturo Gatti and Diego Corrales were heavy drinkers
              Rocky Lockridge, Michael Nunn, Pernell Whitaker, Edwin Rosario, Macho Camacho, Aaron Pryor, Alexis Arguello, Ray Leonard and Frankie Randall did Coke.

                    At least Monzon didn't smoke between rounds like Locche!

                    Actually kind of ticks me off. Locche's my favorite fighter of all time and I really think he had GOAT potential, but for his terrible discipline with food and smoking.
