Man, reading that piece was pretty hard.

I'll never forget reading about him, watching him on Real Sports on HBO, and just thinking that he got dealt a horrible hand in life.

He made the best of it, and he was a hell of a fighter. It was pretty easy to see through the drug problems, and see the good the guy had in him.

RIP Champ, we wont forget you, and what you did, in and out of the ring.

i respect this post.
