Sad to see Tony Tubbs back in court for crack cocaine possesion , he's been up and down on the stuff for years. looks like he's running out of options now.

Tubbs really had top skills, he was unlucky not to get the nod over Riddick Bowe when they met.

Tubbs should've been a millionaire with his gifts, althouhg Don& Carl King played a role in that never happening.

I wish Tony could clean up his act but going on so many years of him saying he is clean and then a story like this coming out, it seems maybe he just won't or can't stay off the drugs.

Fabulous talent though, and always a gentleman as far as boxing goes.

It is sad but on the other side he has 16 kids :o , he should be trying to set an example.
