    Yeah, he ain't doing himself any favours coming out with **** like that. I was just wondering if anyone knew why he didnt turn pro in 2009, as it insinuates he was going to in the article.

    Without trying to sound like a ****, I'm surprised he is turning pro at all given what happened to his old man. That would put me off for life

    why?

    If, for instance, my dad was a drug dealer involved in gangs and was shot, i probably wouldnt want to be a dealer myself

    I remember reading that article or a similar one about a year ago, and then searched for details on his progress as a Boxer. I wasn't able to find much of anything. He seems like somebody really just looking for attention. I don't mean that in a negative way as such. Just that was the impression I got from what I read.

    Why put your family through all that again? I'm not saying nobody should box, but once somebody gets seriously injured in your family, you have to think about them aswell as yourself.

    I remember an interview with Bruno Senna where he said that the hardest part of following his uncle into motorsport wasn't the fear that he would end up the same, but the knowledge that his family would be thinking that was a possibility every time he raced.

    I wouldn't mind seeing him go a few rounds with a couple on here, who take the **** outta his ole man and his condition.

    Like father like son, His dad wasn't cocky like say Naz was. He just was intent on doing damage on his opponent. I kinda like the swagger he had and belief in his power. It was kinda his downfall in someways but a big puncher with a nasty streak makes for great tv.

    his son should go with the "i want to get my dad better care" approach. that would do him alot of favours.
