    We're he and his crew laughing about Roach's Parkinson's in the lead-up to the Pac-Margo fight?

    Johnson used to beat women up and mistreated one of his wives to the point where she committed suicide. He was also known to refuse to pay bar tabs, hotel bills etc.

    Riddick Bowe kidnapped his ex-wife and their children, tied them up and threatened to murder them all

    Ray Leonard beat the **** out of his wife

    Paul Spadafora shot his girlfriend and went to prison for it

    Boxing murderers include Monzon, James Scott, James Butler, Ron Lyle (second degree), Jumbo Cummings

    SRR's son was once quoted as saying that the best combination Robinson ever hit was on his mother.

    "Ibeabuchi was sentenced to 120 days in jail for false imprisonment and forced to pay $500,000 in a civil settlement."

    "Former heavyweight boxer Ikemefula "Ike" Ibeabuchi was sentenced to five to 30 years in prison for sexually assaulting an entertainer at a Las Vegas hotel-casino. Ibeabuchi had admitted no guilt but conceded the state had enough evidence to prove attempted sexual assault and battery charges. The case stemmed from 21-year-old dancer's complaint that Ibeabuchi raped her in July 1999 in a room at The Mirage. Police reported finding the boxer barricaded inside the bathroom and said they squirted pepper spray under the door to make him surrender."

    They'd harassed Ike for 14 months, while heavily sedated, to plead guilty to attempted **** & he'd be back boxing in 6 months. Ike had pleaded not guilty from day one. He did NOT even touch the hooker so they only had her word & that would never hold up in court. He finally entered a plea of no contest. You know the rest Ike got the Maximum sentence 5-30 years they successfully railroaded him. Put yourself in his place he was months in captivity under heavy sedation, You'd have done the same. Without him pleading no contest they had nothing to charge him with the & hooker was NOT assaulted.
    I knew Ike from the day he first arrived in Texas from Nigeria & admit he was no angel but he did not deserve what happened to him he did not get justice. Like I said Do not believe all you read

    He must of had a good reason. I dont think we should label a guy just for this. The DUIs? No excuse for that

    Roberto Duran once socked the mother of an opponent for calling him names when he was a lightweight, he also called Sugar Ray Leonard's wife a Street Walker to her face.

    I think that was the Brandon Rios crew, but I could be wrong.

    He kidnapped the 15-year-old son of his the-girlfriend and drove the car (with both inside) into a concrete pillar in a suicide attempt which caused very serious injury to the youngster.

    Never kidnapped anyone? Please.

    Then, when the DA looked into charges over the case where he beat and imprisoned the stripper, they reopened a PREVIOUS case in Las Vegas involving another stripper.

    He was found mentally incompetent to stand trial. This is a guy who grabbed a knife at a dinner with HBO executives to sign a deal, stood up and drove it into the table and started screaming. He had many other incidents Indicating mental illness in his past. He was remanded to a secure mental health facility and force-medicated because he was acting crazy and refusing medication.

    He took the Alford plea. If he hadn’t, he would have stayed in the mental health facility until found competent then he would have been tried and, from the evidence, convicted.

    By the way, the sentence was 2-10 years on one count and 3-20 on another. And he got out. And violated the conditions of his parole in Arizona for — and I know this will shock you — yet another arrest warrant from 2003.

    Ike was (and presumably still is) a dangerous nutcase and a all-around bad actor.

    It was Brandon Rios and Robert Garcia who made fun of Freddie Roach.

    I don't think there's a great reason for shooting your gf, no matter how badly she pisses you off.
