    I know this is a weird thread but name some boxers who became world champions and have been known to smoke..??

    ricardo mayorga is one prime example, smoking during training and even smoking after upsetting vernon forrest while merchant was interviewing him

    tyson was also known to smokea joint like before his fight with lewis.


    any other boxers come to mind??? not much i think.....

    rocky graziano, alexis arguello, i remember pernell whitiker saying while in prison he took up smoking cigarettes but i don't think he smoked cigarettes during his career just other stuff, i remember hearing early in his career pac smoked ciggarettes but more as a social smoker when he watched **** fighting. james toney does cigars

    here's a list don't know if it's true. shocked to find carl froch on it but not hatton.
