it may not be the women he got it from honestly.

Dempsey. One of my favorite movies right there. The video game was out of this world.

i think the sparring partner thing is less likely of them all..............

True but I'm just saying it is possible. You think how many times a month these guys spar and how many different sparring partners they have and the bloody sessions you really dont think anything of it because its normal and part of the sport.

Oh my gosh.

This is getting crazier by the minute.

Very sad news to get.

How surreal. From about to be fighting for a title on US TV to having his career end from having HIV.

Thankfully for safety reasons this was caught on time. But as has been posted, hopefully his sparring partners, past opponents and his wife get checked and come out clean.

Terrible. The news went from bad to worse. I was irritated that the fight is off. Now I just feel bad for Poonsawat.

i didnt say i knew anything. but what i do know is that in thailand , hiv is at its highest rate among the transsexual population which is a big segement of its sex tourism industry.

ok. i thought u had inside information.

Maybe PEDs gave him HIV?

Like, maybe he was increasing his 'roid dosage this cycle because the fight is so significant, but his testosterone skyrocketed, causing him to become too alpha. Then maybe the only cure to bring his T level down before the blood tests was to have an ungodly amount of sex with cheap prostitutes, leading to him catching teh AIDS in an effort to conceal his PED usage.

It seriously wouldn't surprise me if some of the teenaged NSB "PED experts" thought this was a good post.

peds are actually used to treat HIV. its the ped medication that gives magic johnson his "healthy" look.

It is ridiculously difficult for a heterosexual male to catch the virus from having unprotected ******* sex. Chances are like less than 3% either he took the Hershey highway or something else was going on.

That's horrible, heartbreaking for the guy. At least it's not a death sentence anymore.

Yes, there have been great strides made in the treatment of HIV over the last decade, so hopefully he'll be okay in the end. Even so, my heart goes out to him, that's terrifying news for anybody.

As a fan, boxing seems like a trivial distraction when you consider the gravity of something like this.

thats what most doctors believe nowadays, but it never added up to me. i still go in wrapped unless its a girl ive been with for a while. dont risk no 3%

How does this **** even get out. No freakin privacy anymore.

It must be horrible to be told you have a disease which will change your life forever and then for the whole world to find out.
