    Comments Thread For: Tommy Morrison, Former Champ Passes Away at 44

    Former world heavyweight champion boxer Tommy Morrison has died, according to one of his former promoters.

    Tony Holden told the Tulsa World that Morrison, who was born in Jay, Okla., and later fought in Kansas City, died Sunday night in Omaha, Neb. He was 44.

    “It’s true,” said Holden, who resides in Tulsa. “He was with his wife, Trisha, when he passed.”

    Morrison’s family has not commented.

    Diana Morrison, who lives in Aurora, Mo., said last month that her son, a former heavyweight champion, was “in the end stages” from full-blown AIDS. [Click Here To Read More]

                      My understanding is that he fought outside the jurisdiction of state athletic commissions by fighting on Native American Indian reservations.
