Comments Thread For: JoJo Diaz combines training with rehab as he prepares for Nicholas Walters clash

Hard to beat addiction. Never did drugs so I can't relate. But I did smoke cigarettes. Took me years to quit. If it's similar, then I bet all Diaz thinks about is to have a quiet place to satisfy the addiction while training. People around better stay away from him and avoid giving him any thinking that you're giving him a favor. Look at Matthew Perry's case. He dragged some people with him in another life.

There is a load of rubbish talked about addiction & I think it is worth remembering that people who choose AA almost always have shorter lives & worse outcomes than those that don't. But I don't want to get into all that. Just to say that IF JoJo has been as heavy a drinker as this article suggests then there is no way he should be encouraged to take punches from any professional boxer, let alone a guy like 'Axeman' who really could hit like a MoFo.
