    Gerry Quarry is one that comes to mind. He and his boxing brothers all suffered greatly from the tolls of boxing. Jerry and his brother Mike suffered from pugilistic dementia and died premature deaths (in their 50s) related to that affliction. A third brother Bobby, who also boxed, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.

    Boxing is an incredibly unforgiving sport and business...

        It's pretty strange for sure.
        *** is stricken (J-e-w). That being a redacted word is itself more offensive than having no redaction at all.
