[Frank Ducketts]

How bad did he beat that woman up?

Wow. I'm shocked by this sad news. Michael fought a lot of demons in his short life. He did some things I'm sure he wasn't proud of. I'll never forget the war with Holyfield. I hope Mike finds peace in the hereafter.

RIP Michael.

You can't hold a man responsible for what he did as a child and mistakes are washed clean when you die, the Lord will accept you, regardless of slips or falls. I won't speak bad of him or of such a negative obituary. RIP.

Sad news R.I.P.

[Tomasio]

I seen him fight a bunch of times..I could still remember hearing his "Grunt Like" shout every time he threw a punch(something like what the Peterson Bros do now a days, except louder)..I knew about his addiction to coke, but didn't know he beat the S H I T out of his wife & didn't even know he was locked up for a while..That part of his life sucks, but as a boxing fan he gave us a bunch of good fights..

RIP. Dokes came up during the Don king era. Probably would have champion multiple times. Warrior
