    The guy has some real issues. He claims he doesn't have AIDS and is convinced that the doctors have made the whole thing up.

    Really? I thought his AIDS was gone? That's why he was allowed to fight his last fight? Id take that article with a pinch of salt mate.

    By 2011, Morrison began to make various [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fringe_science"]fringe[/ame] claims, saying that he was able to teleport himself or regrow limbs, and that he should be able to box without HIV testing because [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIDS_denialism"]HIV itself does not exist[/ame]:[3] "I'm living proof that HIV is a myth."[2] He had made a similar statement in 1998, when he told ESPN that "HIV can’t be transmitted sexually anyway, unless it’s man to man. HIV is a harmless disease (sic) that does not cause AIDS

    His pec implants will look even more ridiculous now.

    Doesnt sound any worse than a lot of boxers his age, who've been punched in the head for a career.

    Its hard to tell about the whole AIDs thing. I mean,hes supposed to have had HIV/AIDs for what?? 15 years? and hes still standing?

    I dont know much about the illness but isnt that a long time to live with it?

    The drugs for it now are apparently good enough that some suffers can live quite lengthy lives. He had a number of fights recently. And there's no way he could have been allowed to fight if he does have AIDS. So does he have it or not?

    He looks like an old man. I don't know what to believe but I hope he doesn't suffer.

    His only US fight of the 2000s was at Mountaineer in West Virginia. I don't want to insult our hill-people brethren, but the WV commission may not be as strict as a state like Nevada or New Jersey.

    According to Wikipedia, which doesn't really mean anything, he submitted a blood test that nobody can really authenticate.
