It's tough to know who you are when the limelight is off you.

Given the way Oscar ended his career, I can understand the dark thoughts and I'm happy he didn't go through with them.

There's enough suffering in the world already.

Damn that's sad to hear, glad he's doing better now.

We love you Oscar!

Ahhhh, poor Oscar considered committing suicide....he gave up in the ring, giving up on life would be easy for a guy like that

That's low, have some respect.

stay strong oscar. you have lived a brilliant life and have had a brilliant career that has served to inspire many children and even adults. . . we all got our demons - and the toughest battles we fight are with ourselves. good to hear you are doing better.

I don't really have much respect for cross-dressing drug abusers....I guess that's where you and I differ.

You now need to come clean about the Mares-Agbeko fight. And he didn't need to mention Tiger, lol

[Doctor_Tenma]

Stay strong man...

Man this is sad.. FOr guy as successful as he is, you'd think he wouldn't go thru these kind of situations. I wish him the best, I've never disliked Oscar.

If it was Mayweather.. it would be totaaaaally different.
