Are people really defending Stevenson's past?

[The Gambler1981]

He wasnt given a second chance? Look at where he is, making big money as the LHW champ of the world. He's basically been forgiven, yet here he is crying racism and oppression because a reporter asked him a question about his past, its laughable

Im not sure how the media bringing up his pimping days is worse than pimping and torturing teenage girls. But thats just me

The past is the past, forcing someone to live in their terrible past is a recipe for forcing them back into it because they will think what does it matter.

Is it terrible it got brought up not really, but constantly bringing it up and crucifying a guy with it is.

Same thing happened to Tyson if people remember correctly, his past got brought up and he became very angry, said he no longer had that mind set anymore. Here is the video......

COME ON NOW!
Dude was 21 when he started doing this, not some dumb young teen.
He beat them, tortured them and ****d them when he felt like it.
You guys have to be kidding me....come on now, this is sad

the guy is obvious scum. it doesnt get much worse than that and like u said he was already an adult

[Dr Rumack]

I can see both sides of it. The guy grew up in a hell hole, got involved in some horrific stuff and did horrible things to people, but did make changes for the better in his life. Should he have it thrown in his face for the rest of his years, by everyone everywhere he goes?

That's for people to decided for themselves I suppose. Maybe he does.

I just hope the people that are casting stones never end up in a messed up situation and require the forgiveness or acceptance of others that have no reason to give it to you~ Is it messed up what he did no doubt, but it is probably worse for so called high minded individuals to not give someone a second chance~

If one of those girls was your niece or daughter or best friends daughter who was ****d and beaten you sure as hell would not be talking about forgiveness for a guy who should have served 10 plus years and only got close to 20 months for the brutal sht he did!!

I honestly wouldn't expect it.

[Humean]

Unless you think that what he did should have him punished forever, or even executed, then you have to let him move on. The fact that he has actually turned his life around so successfully is surely a good thing? People aren't admiring him for his past behaviour but rather his boxing skills.
