    Tommy's looking terrible. Drugged out and very sick. It's truly sad what has happened to him. He probably won't be around for too much longer.

    Wow he looks horrid. It's crazy because just a couple of years ago he looked pretty damn healthy and ripped. Maybe it's the side effects of drugs? Crystal meth maybe

    Almost made me cry. He looked so healthy a few years back on "Ringside: Lennox Lewis" with Bert Sugar.

    IT's very rare that you see someone's appearance change THAT MUCH in 20 years. Remember him as the blonde adonis? My God, what a change. Poor guy. He had a lot of talent and was quite intelligent too, but it's hard to overcome a harsh childhood and drugs sure don't help. HIV doesn't either.

    YEah, I hate to be cynical, but give Tommy another chance -hell, give him five more- and he'll probably screw them up. He's always been attracted to the criminal element. I'd love to see him turn it around, but as another poster already say, the guy has had more chances than most people. He was a successful fighter AND had his foot in Hollywood too. Still, I hope somehow things get better for the guy. I always find him riveting to listen to, even when he's going off the rails.

    He looks about right for a 42 year old who has AIDS and a history of drug and alcohol problems.

    Because he is white, perchance?

    More likely because the one thing morrison could do was punch and lennox didn't exactly have a great chin.

    Living an unclean lifestyle has its costs.

    The change is even more rapid when you look at his pictures from 3 years ago. Sure he was looking awful and bloated due to steroids but he did not look aged and frail.

    Lenny's chin was about 10 x better than Morrison's though. :good

    I don't see how anyone could have figured Morrison to beat Lewis.
    (Having said that, it's pretty amazing that Morrison somehow beat a fat old Foreman !).
