      Unless their out of the ring life is felonious (Tony POS Ayala comes to mind. Used to be one of my fave fighters).

        What a waste of talent that guy! He was a bad ass, but as you said a POS.... Didn't he get in trouble again after being paroled????

            That dude had major demons and substance abuse issues... Wound up dying of a drug overdose in his 50s I believe, but he beat Sugar Ray Leonard's brother when he was still a teen. I thought I had read that his dad blamed himself because he was a mean father that used to beat the crap out him and his brothers.

                No excuses at all, the world is a better place without him.

                  It’s absolutely laughable to sue someone for whooping your ass in an officially licensed contest.
                  On a serious note, all it would take is one woke jury and boxing would be in real trouble. The damage done to the sport be HUGE.

                    I don't like either one of them, but Garcia cheated and there should be repercussions. His cheating put Haney's health and career at risk and I don't care how big of an asshat someone is, no one should be put through that heightened risk. They are both scumbags outside of the ring, but Haney is in the right on this.

                      Opening that Pandora’s box would be detrimental to boxing
