        Dumb question probably, but is HIV hereditary?

          No, but if the mother was infected it can be passed on to the baby.

              I understand promoting the kid and all but saying he had more raw power than his dad is lunacy. Tommy had one of the hardest left hooks of all time. Roach can only make him better but he'll never be a world champ starting so late I'm afraid.

                He's fighting a decent guy for his next fight or last I seen he was. Might be moving him too fast.

                Never a bad move to get a notable trainer teaching a boxer, but his defense is extremely lacking so Freddie gots his work cut out for him. He definitely hits like his dad. When he fights someone who hits back he's in the a long night though.

                  He already had one of the best trainers in boxing with Jesse Reid. I'm kind of sad to see them parting ways.

                  Hopefully Roach will give this kid his full attention and won't pawn him off on Marvin Somodio when things get busy.

                    Tommys left hook was crazy, but he had generally really good technique too.

                    I think he cleans out the current heavyweight division.

                    I think his son will be the same way, roach is a offensive trainer, tommys son will be exciting.
