I hope he gets at least 90 days of actual cell time and a hefty fine. He probably won't but he should.

I totally agree. Make the kid look at a cell wall for a few moths and really decide on what is important in his life. He has enough talent to rebound form this, and the HW division will need a new generation of stars. Jail time does not derail a boxing career, so a few months behind bars will not hurt his chances in the ring, but killing someone sure would. This guy seems to be making decisions like life and responsibility are cheap to him. Give him a taste of the other side. Might scare him straight.

And that's probably part of the reason why he is what he is. He clearly needs somebody in his corner from a personal standpoint and the peeps around himprobably just see him as a bank. Miller just comes off like an overgrown 8th grade kid who never takes accountability for himself and never seemed to develop mentally past that.This young man seems far more wise and mature in the way he speaks, but just seems like he struggles with himself seeing his non-chalant attitude towards alot of things like he just doesn't care about anything. Not making excuses nor condoning his actions, but he clearly needs some type of moral support and the way he's talked about needing real people aroundhim in previous interviews, he probably feels he doesn't have that and it usually leads to this type of behavior. It's pretty sad. Hopefully he can find a purpose to get motivated and stay on track bc if he doesn't, things might not end well for him.

What happens sometimes when you give young athletes quite a bit of money from the jump. He's said before he's not that passionate about boxing like he should be and that's he's init only to get paid and when you got that mentality in you then you take you're foot off the gas and start doing mad **** like this.

Could be that too. Some folks just think they're too big and won't listen to anybody no matter how hard they try lead them the right way so I wouldn't put it past. Even moreso with these younger generation guys that think they know everything and don't have alot of respect for anybody. Regardless, he clearly needs some intervention before he ends up steppin in some ish that he can't get off his shoes. Too much talent to be wasted f'in up like he's been recently.

So we have a place in the room for one more contender, because this one is not serious.

That sounds like fun while it lasted

Another brother from the ****** who will self destruct. It's so sad really if you think about it.

the way our society is structured there is not a clear path for poor people to get thrills - so people use what they see on screen all the time - cars, guns, drugs - he was lucky he found boxing - but he isn't active enough - long stretches of boredom in between

He is his worst enemy. There is nobody to blame here but himself.

[Shadoww702]

Anyone know why he even originally ran???

[Oregonian]

Just shows you how young he is. Thank God I didn't have that kind of money at his age.
