I am not ashamed to say that a tear or two ran down my cheek after reading this. Good article, but sad stuff:

Yeah, pretty downhearting stuff. The fact he can't afford to stay away from sparring for a couple of days with an injury just because he needs the sparring, and even then it's only $100 or so a day. But 10 kids though by 5 different women?!

Very sad stuff Tommy. He has that college degree though...at this point, no matter how strong the desire for a title fight of any sort, I would have to quit boxing (at least full time) and get a better paying job.
