where's the help?

JT's clearly not well -- and it remains discouraging that the likes of De La Hoya, DiBella, Haymon, Ward, Canelo, Arum, Mayweather, etc., aren't trying to get something set up to help ex-fighters.

Fund it with, I dunno, a dime from every PPV or ticket sold to a fight in Vegas? One percent of every purse over 50k?

It's really sad to see how Taylor has become. In his day he was a really respectable, soft spoken, nice guy. Since the brain bleed he has went off the deep end. This is part of the dark side of the effect that can happen in boxing that we don't like to think about.

This dude needs help. It's ashame what happened to him and Pavlik.

Both were considered the future of boxing.

He needs help that i really dont think he is getting. Hope he doesn't kill someone for someone to actually offer the help needed. Didn't shoot a young child not long ago?

Who would have thought this guy had mental issues?

It is unfortunate but delahoya and those guys aren't obligated to help anybody.

It isn't as if Taylor retired broke and hungry. Guy left the sport with millions in the bank and he keeps ***ing up.

And fans keep giving these guys a pass for their outrageous behaviors, blaming sht on head trauma from boxing etc man I say gtfo it's more like too much booze and drugs from boredom that caused all this.

I've always liked Taylor though and never expected him to turn out this way.
