how many champions have been in prison before during or after owning thier championship title? names and divisions please.
For heavyweights, Bowe and Tyson are the most obvious names. Tommy Morrison too. Did Michael Moorer get time for assaulting that cop?
Among the heavyweights: John L Sullivan Jack Johnson Max Schmeling Sonny Liston Muhamad Ali Mike Tyson Riddick Bowe
Off the top of my head that hasn't been mentioned yet... I think Michael Dokes, Michael Nunn and BHOP.
No, that would be too perfect a setup, well, maybe your name happened too but, here's what really happened...The REAL story... Larry Holmes came to visit Trevor Berbick in prison, Buk...and you know what happened? ...I'll tell you... Larry Holmes kicked and punched Trevor Berbick. Through the bars. Right there, in front of everybody. Larry Holmes...kicked him and punched him!
I heard that Berbick actaully nearly died in prison after being stabbed and was annouced clinically dead at one point.
Naseem Hamed did a year, but that was well into his retirement, unless u still beleive he's gonna come back, then while he was active. Sonny Liston was always fighting cops. Braehmer's jsut gone in. And the president himself, Ibeabuchi. Did O'Neill Bell go in for his Axe attack on his training partner before the rematch against Mormeck? Also, anybody remember the Sports Illustrated issue from way way back, with the headline "Why Mike Tyson is only the second best boxer in prison" or something like that, do u remember who that boxer was?
