    I like Tommy, hope he does well if/when he comes back, cause fighting at 38 ain't that easy.

      First, I'm interested in seeing if Morrison actually passes the blood tests needed to obtain the boxing license. And secondly, I look forward to seeing how good(or bad) he looks in his first fight back since his retirement in 1996 and hope this fight or any of his comeback fights are televised on FNF or VS this year.

        I saw him hit the mits on ESPN not too long ago.

        He looked ******ed. Im dead serious. He was slow, his mouth was wide open, gasping for air, and he sounded a bit punch drunk.

                      He was never at Tony Ayala's level, and Tony went straight down the tubes in his comeback. Morrison will disappear even quicker. Besides, who would knowingly step in the ring with a guy who is HIV positive?
