      Who in their right mind will fight Tommy Morrison, knowing he has HIV. This is beyond belief.

        Ahh, the Morrison saga continues....

        Just several months ago, he was scheduled to fight in Washington State but, from what I've heard, was not able to obtain a boxing license. Since his comeback several years ago, Morrison has only fought once in the U.S. and once in Mexico and the from what I can surmise, it's because he's having trouble getting approved for a boxing license. And seems like he's shopping around different regions (e.g. Washington State) and different countries (e.g. Mexico, Canada) to get a boxing license without going through rigorous medical testing.

        I may be wrong but my gut tells me that he's HIV positive but the levels of the disease in his blood are at such a low level that they're undetectable, kinda like Magic Johnson.

          A couple of years ago he also had a few fixed MMA matches at some local bars. Pretty sad sight.

            So its kinda like in The Wrestler?

            I dont get why so many great boxers end up completely broke instead of saving some of their cash for retirement,do they really just mindlessly burn their money while on top and are broke not long after retiring?

                  It absolutely was a lie! A complete set up. Sadly it has taken all these years to bring it to light.

                      If it were undetectable....Then how was it "Detected" in the first place. Doesn't have it....never did.

                      You don't just hide something like that. It's obvious what took place. Go back in time and look at it again. Obvious. And Tommy is the one who's paid the price. Sad
