        I would feel sorry for him because what a terrible thing it must be to live all those years in fear that you could die before your time and have to pay for all of the expensive treatments to keep the disease from progressing.

        If I was Morrison, I would sue the **** out of whichever lab provided him with that first test because it stopped him from being involved with his profession. Aside from that, at 38, what is he going to do in boxing now?

        He got hit too much when he was in his prime.
        like it or not man most fighters now use steriods, Vargas, Mayorga,Toney and i am sure there are a ton more

          If Morrison is given a clean bill of health(as things seems to indicate) and is cleared by the Arizona Athletic Commission to fight, then his entry back into the ring, I think, makes the heavyweight division a bit more interesting and the talent pool a little bit deeper.

          Hopefully, at 37 years of age and having been out of the ring for a decade, Morrison takes his comeback seriously and comes into the ring well conditioned and at a decent weight.

                    yea,,,he would be a small heavyweight without roids. figure 20 lbs of muscle came with those steroids. thing is though,,,how many other heavies take them and is this why heavies are so much bigger than in the past? something to think about

                      I wouldnt go that far. his stamina was briggs like and guys like the klits would have massacred him even in his prime.sam peter also would have knocked him out,,but he'd have had a good shot against briggs and maskeav
