Former WBC world middleweight champion Gerald McClellan is planning to sell his title belt so he does not have to move into a care home.

McClellan was left severely brain damaged following his punishing title bout with Nigel Benn in 1995.

The 44-year-old former champ receives round-the-clock care from his sister Lisa as he is blind, 80 per cent deaf and has difficulty speaking.

The boxing community should do something to help Gerald, I know it's happened before. I'm sure Don King wouldn't miss a couple of million.

MONEY MAY TO THE RESCUE...

seriously, if someone knows him, contact him. Sometimes, he does seem to care about stuff like this.

Sad. That is what happens when you don't prepare properly and your heart carries you to many more rounds than your exhausted body should.

how much are these belts even worth?

[Mr. Philadel]

DK need to sort that out.....when the ring punishment strikes a fighter like it did G-Man...fans say how bad and sad they feel...but the SAME fans will slam a fighter for having a cautious style or approach to how they work....fans slam fighters for not standing and trading blows even though the fighter is past his expiration date....Shane Mosley comes to mind....but there is many more....cats complain about extra drug testing but then wanna show compassion for fallen warriors...smh....it don't make sense!!!

prayers go out to G-Man and his fam...hopefully somebody steps up and takes care of that small problem for the big man!!!

yeah it's true boxing fans bay for blood, and none of us is innocent on that score, and then feel sorry when something like this happens, it's like Nigel Benn said:

"You know what?" Benn says. "This is what you wanted to see. You got what you wanted to see."

And that is the most chilling truth of all.
