I heard there was some sort of scandal but he was only 21 years old. Anyone know more about him? I just remember him blazing onto the scene, getting whacked by Coggi and then gone. Do you think he had more left in the gas tank or was he just a flash in the pan?
I know he's not a heavyweight but he had a good story back in the 90's. I remember something about him wanting to become famous so that he could find his father, Anyways, bump...
My memory may be shot, but I think I read that after meeting his father, boxing had served its purpose. He purchased a taxicab business and retired. At one point I read in one of the magazines that he was attacked by guys from a rival cab company and he defended himself pretty effectively.
He basically lost hunger for the reasons mentioned above but also found out his management had been ripping him off . Today he would have been a star with his exciting star.
