Firstly I want to say I do not wish any harm on anyone who gets in the ring and contributes to the sport I love beyond words.
The man took alot of punishment in his career, he had the finest chin I have ver seen in my life time. No matter what was thrown at him he would walk through it and keep coming - a real warrior.
But you have to wonder will that eventually take effect on him later in his life?
You listen to fighters now slurring words; more recently James Toney, Ricky Hatton and Shane Mosley. Of course we have Tommy Hearns, Larry Holmes and Rid**** Bowe etc
But lets take James Toney for example; a defensive fighter for most of his career - he didn't take much punishment throughout his career.
You can only assume Tony will run into such problems, I am amazed he hasn't started to already.
