I personally wouldn't pay that guy a penny. A skaghead with a harmonica claims a murderer innocent and everybody is cooing around him like he's the victim. Carter is a scum, in my opinion; anybody who lines his pockets isn't much better.

Absolutely agree 100%. People that knew him, know full well he is a complete scumbag. The film is total dross too, doesn't go onto to tell you how those Canadian Students all got screwed by him when they had him released. He uses them and screwed them. In prison he was a scumbag, sold drugs and bullied other prisoners.

He was a banner for Black-America to waive and tyhe facts were diluted by the tredy American race issue and not the facts. If Carter had been white with no card to play he would still be in jail now.

Bob Dylan, a legend I might add, made this piece of shit look like a victim. He may not have done the Patterson murders but he done lots of other shit for which he never caught.

He even got caught with a gun at the Marble Arch hotel when he was over in his fighting days.

Both him and Tyson are both scumbags who should not be allowed in the UK.

Great post Flawed Genuis. Tbe people paying him to come here should be ashamed of themselves. Put the money into bringing over people who are a credit to the sport and not famous for being jailed for Rape and Murder.

Let's send Peter Sutcliffe or ther Black-Panther to the US for a dinner tour, see how they like it!

Great line in the Simpsons, about some boxer - "He's so bad, Bob Dylan wrote a song about him to keep him in prison!"

I've read a bit about it, and must admit, sounds like they had Carter bang to rights on the murder case. He comes over as pretty looney tunes in the 16th Round too....
