Failed a brain scan I believe.

I think he got sent to prison about a year ago for breaking into someone house and threatening them with violence.

Things are quite bad for Robbie even now, it seems the drink has really gotten a hold onto him.

It amazes me that such a talented boxer who reached the top in a sport, which requires such strict personal dedication can lose this self-control so completely.

Its not totally uncommon. There's quite a few sports stars that have gone off the rails after their careers have ended. Ive heard a few ex-pros say how empty and meaningless their lives had become since hanging up their gloves/boots. Something to do with missing the adulation, respect and routine.

I understand that he is now out of prison but recently 3 of his close relatives died (carbon minoxide poisening), very sad
