I never met him Trish I would have loved to. My condolences on your loss. Is there anything boxing fans can do to help make this happen? Donations? Can you do us the favor and tell us at this forum what this monument to Tommy stands for... In your eyes... And how the community feels about it. I think it would be a great thing.
This is Trisha Morrison...and your name is? May I ask you WHEN you actually met my husband in person? Thank you. Trisha Morrison - wife and widow of Tommy Morrison - AND PROUD OF IT.:bbb
There is no such thing as white privilege. But, I CAN name many privileges given to Just American Indians, Blacks, Hispanics and well...... every other race but White. I can give them names, THE laws, the orders, the documents... but There is NO white Privilege. PERIOD
Balder - what is your real name? Yes it is a loss not only for me but also for the people that loved him all over the world. Yes it is going to happen. The vote was unanimous. The American Boxing Association is raising the funds for Tommy's memorial. They are on Facebook. In my eyes?....it's somewhere fans and friends and family can go to pay their respect...in honors a hometown hero....and usually heroes are never welcomed in their hometown...Jay is welcoming him back with open arms. The "haters" on this site...perhaps don't understand FORGIVENESS...COURAGE...LOVE...PEACE...and turning your life around....that's what this memorial means to me and I will fight those that try and ruin his legacy.

I agree with your quote on FRIENDS and not ENEMIES. thank you for posting your real name. Yes - Tommy was a great icon. Yes- Heaven's gain. Trisha Morrison
You can count on my support for this. Thank you for coming into this debate. You showed great courage and honor. You did Tommy proud. Check you inbox, I sent you a PM.
White Privilege is the same thing as , Unicorns, and pots of gold at the end of a rainbow. Both are figments of your imagination. :good
Tommy was actually 6ft2in. It will be made of bronze. No "aids"...no "needles"...and no "paper mache of any dui citations" ...no "brass from any confiscated weapons". Thanks for your input...but that wasn't the Tommy I knew. Trisha Morrison - wife and widow and PROUD OF IT too.
This is Trisha Morrison and I absolutely STAND BY George Foreman's daughter. This is the reason why I too am here to cut and paste every comment from people that think they can BASH my husband TOMMY MORRISON. Enough of that was done during his lifetime in the media. Trisha Morrison:bbb
It is interesting reading some of their comments. If each of them gave me their names...IP ADDRESSES....contact information I would be very happy to meet them face to face...perhaps even subpoena them...and let's meet in court. The fact that Tommy is not here today to read some of these comments is the reason why they are writing them. Trisha Morrison:bbb
So Im curious Trisha, if Tommy didnt have HIV/AIDS, what was the cause of his incredible weight loss, lesions, and illness(es) which resulted in his death at such an early age? Linda publicly stated that Tommy had full blown AIDS. If he did and you denying that, and the lesson that it could teach, thats pretty irresponsible. Im sorry for your loss and bear no ill will against you or Tommy but Tommy's story was a frightening one and became a cautionary tale in the mid 90s for boxers. If nothing else his legacy in that regard may have actually had more of an impact than his career ever did.
In 2011 Tommy was flown to Wichita, Ks in a private jet , under a sealed fugitive warrant arrest. (and the case got mysteriously dropped). He came out of jail with an INSECT BITE to his chest. Doctor said either a tick or brown recluse bite. We returned to TN and he underwent surgery on Dec.01-2011 on his chest. It was supposed to be a one hour outpatient surgery. We came out 1 week later. The next day the home health nurse came to do wound change. We found 12FOOT of surgical gauze had been left in Tommy's chest for a week. The nurse nearly passed out, and that night from the trauma, Tommy's leg gave way and he fell head first into and through the wall of our bedroom. He landed on his neck and fell to the ground. His body was in septic shock. He fought septic shock for 21 months. No aids defining diseases...no hiv in his blood. So after receiving that information I emailed the doctor in Las vegas that was there in 1996 and told him I hoped he had good medical malpractice as there was no HIV in Tommy. He got his attorney to reply to me on Dec.23,2013...confirming that his client...the doctor..had NEVER diagnosed Tommy with hiv in Vegas on February 10,1996. Trisha Morrison
I did feel froggy and I jumped. Prove White Privilege exists, That's your burden. Like I said, I can name laws, and documents giving all manner of bonuses to everyone that is specifically not white. In other words, THE only verifiable privilege that exists, and has race involved in it, Is laws, rights and benefits, that are given to all races OTHER than white. Everything else is pure imaginary. I will be waiting patiently for you to prove me wrong, by showing me any law that exists that specifically gives whites rights and privileges over other races. Now the reverse.. I can find easily. So perhaps you should check your privilege, and instead come up with facts. If you REALLY want go there. :rasta
