      I cant say for sure either but I cant see how getting punched in the head many times with lots very hard blows for a very long time would have no effect on a brain disease .

        Im not sure man. Like you said, common sense would lead you to believe that blows to the head could somehow cause or "trigger" the disease. But if those guys to this day are yet to be able to make a connection (especially with how advanced technology is) then Im nobody to dispute it. Parkinson's and Alzheimer's are pretty complicated it seems.

          Thats a 2 way street buddy because they cant say there is no connection , how advanced are we really when in 500 years from now today will be primitive .

              Nobody is clambering to see Floyd return the fans don't care, you're not Ali people don't respect you and people sure as hell aren't entertained by you best you stay retired, maybe you can say a controversial thing or two now and then to try and desperately stay relevant.

              It's a sad case with Floyd he is addicted to the spot light but people just don't care he is old news his days of being a show monkey for people are over and the sooner he gets over this middle age crisis the better.

                  I agree with Floyd. But Floyd could have fought better opposition in his prime, maybe some of the same opponents on his list, but some a bit sooner than when he eventually did fight them. Ali was amazing, but seriously that guy shoulda called a quits right after the Thrilla in Manila .

                    Exactly. Either way getting punched in the head by world class fighters is not healthy for you

                      He gives press conferences on fights he promotes. He's not pushing the topic. The reporters are asking him these questions.
