    Factor that in, its very hard to say how good he would have been, if he didn't get sent to prison for one thing, it would have just been something else.

    That said does anyone know why he is in prison so long in compared to Tyson?
    Money. His sentence did seem outrageous compared to others.

      Prolly not all that different from Tua. Put on some great fights and flash KOs but be shut down by an elite rangey boxer.

        I was at Tua Ibeabuchi fight and it was electric. The President is a fighter I always thought could have been something special. Too bad he was insane.

          He had lawyers make a deal for him when he tried to meet god with a former girlfriends son in the passenger seat. He received a minor concussion but the boy had major health issues. So he had reduced kidnapping and attempted murder charges. When he did the attempted **** he was a convicted felon and Nevada threw the book at him. I remember about ten years ago he had a parole hearing and the media was hinting he might get out of jail but the parole board felt his new attitude was just a form of a long con and denied bail.
