It's not a question of being allowed to me.

Why in God's name would someone agree to fight him?

So can brag to his mates down the local bar that he boxed Tommy Morrison. Only in America.

i actually watched a few bits including this last night, he actually lost a split desicion to Mercer in pre olympic trials which mercer went on to get gold so their bout was a rematch when they was both pro.

Yeah thats the one mate, just another example of Tommy not really being with it, really enjoyed the clip though

At 2.34 secs you get a very clear view of his massively swollen stomach due to HGH abuse and the pec implants due to muscle deterioation.

Like you say kinda upseting.

Tommy is in denial of his hiv...... no different to someone being in denial of cancer....and surprise surprise, people who refuse to be beaten by something actually last longer!! its medically proven and statistically so too!!.

Its not the size of the dog in the fight its the size of the fight in the dog!

yes he does look awful now, and like cancer, it (HIV) will get you in the end, and its looks like its finally caught up with the duke. And many medications do make you feel worse without actually lenghtening you stay on the planet!!... chemotherapy can be a good example of this!!

and despite HIV being a blood to blood disease, fighters still rub cut eye against cut eye with each other!! are still only tested anually (i do believe) and worse of all, the BBB of C still do not make cornermen wear a new pair of medical gloves per fight if indeed they wear them at all (williamson etc)

unfortunately its a ticking time bomb, and in my humble opinion, only a matter of time until a british boxer catches the virus from another british boxer due to the BBB of C not taking the correct precautions.

worth thinking about fellas!!....... is it not?

Thing is he won't sit a test given by a ruling body, he just produces his own paperwork

I really feel sorry for Tommy Morrison. He had it all in front of him, the world at his feet. He was a good looking tough heavyweight that was on route to make millions from fights with Tyson and Holyfeild. He must of felt that he was living in Heaven for a while, but like a lot of men, the fast life caught up with him.

Look at the multiple black spots on his hands during the interview. They're Kaposi's sarcoma - a symptom of Aids.

Won't take his meds, thinks HIV is 'a myth' and thinks he can teleport out of rooms. The guy's basically gone insane. Sad.

Where are these black spots? There is an extreme close up of his hands at the 8 min mark and they are clear.

This is the more recent one, mate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF92Mc9_44I&feature=fvst

Watch it in HD. The black spots are pretty clear.

Oh God yes I see it in that later one. Ah, he looks in dire health there.

HE looks high as a kite. An insightful and honest interview though. Not quite sure white EA sports felt it was a good advert about their game

I know...what were they thinking - he is so clearly off his chops. It's a pretty bad advert for the game, and for boxing as well.

This is a very grim thread, looks like he's on his way out:-(
