Two years today since his last fight, any recent news on him?

I read an article a couple of months back (don't recall who gave the interview, probably Warren) suggesting that Lear is fit and has been for some time now. It went on to say that his problems are now 100% mental. But as i said, that's a while back now.

Shame but I cant see him coming back.

Yes, a waste of a very good talent if he has been seen for the last time!

yip but 2 years is some time out of the game especially due to injury.

i read somewhere that he kept re-injuring his shoulder whenever he threw an uppercut with the afroesaid hand (right is it Im not sure?).

That must be terribly downheartening, to get yourself fit then get to the point where you can train again and keep re-injuring yourself.

i just cant see it, i hope I am wrong though I really liked Lear.
