    Good post - what you say carries a lot of weight in that when a boxer is thrown into the limelight, it's easily to get blinded by something you've never experienced, much less have the wisdom to handle. I know I didn't think about pension funds or financial planning in my mid twenties. In boxing you're only one fight away from Palookaville, and in an instant it's gone - no other sport is like that.

      I adamently object to the claim that it was his own doing.

      Anyone who says that does not know **** about being indigent. And if you ever were, you would probably be dead real quick.
