So......you didn't read the story.....

Did you? Clearly not. He had a title shot scheduled for after the May 2nd bout in August.

hope he turns out to be a good guy that wanted protection. if not then maybe he shouldnt be on the streets. oh well, he could have given us some good fights.

Someone just beat me to it, but,

you just dont know enough about boxing.. or human physiology.. his body was built to go forever.. he sparred 3 guys at the same time.. he didint slip punches becuase he didnt have to he beat joel julio the way youre not suppposed to be able to beat him .. noone else could have beat julio like that..

Pretty ****** to buy the gun with your own ID. Makes me think he wanted it for something right away and didn't give a ****. Probably not safe to let him out for a while. Don't drop the soap Kirkland. Night, night, Keep your butt hole tight

I agree with the first part but the rest of your comment makes me think YOU are ******. If you think Kirkland will take any **** from those mo' fo's in jail then you must be ******ed. Kirkland is a bad ass and loves to fight. Extend whatever sentence he gets because he will be knocking guys out while hes locked up.

It really upset me to hear about this because I was following Kirkland's career for a while now and I really liked him a lot. Caught a bad break. I hope he gets off with not too much time but I doubt it.

Sweet Pea with power? have you seen him fight at all? He can't slip a punch so how can you compare him to Pernell?

All time greats? Wow! He was another Jeff Lacy.

i was qouting trainers that have worked with him ..

Jessica Burciaga bro.

Is she a **** star chick? Man, what could've been with Kirkland. So much wasted talent. He was one of the few guys calling out Paul Williams, and as a Williams fan I would've loved to see that fight. I also held and still do hold Williams accountable for brushing off the challenge. Even though a win over Winky is better as far as resume goes.

Kirkland is right where he deserves to be In jail
He needs to take notice of how Bernard Hopkins turned his life around through boxing.
Boxing offered them both a chance to get out of the streets. Bernard took it and is now a very rich p4p living legend. Kirkland obviously cannot do it and resorted to the street thug. As I sai He is right where he needs to be

Actually it is. It all comes down on how bad you want to escape it.

Easier said than done.
