    Jimmy Bivins in his old age brain damage state after years of decades of hard fights, was locked up in attic and brutally tortured by his FAMILY members for YEARS, he barely got anything to eat for days, he had to sleep in **** and ****, he was beaten physically, absolutley atrocious disgusting acts. finally someone found out and rescued him. when the police found him in his daughters attic in 1998, he was wrapped in a blanket covered with **** and ****, he weighed only 105lb sickly emanciated, and he had bed sores and broken bones and bone cancer.

    Actually, his family said they wished Benn got crippled as well, and that "we just want his money".. pretty classless anyway.

    here is a bit about McClennan from another site and a link as well
    "McClellan bred, trained & fought pitbulls all his adult life. 'Training'
    consisted of him getting dogs, cats & other animals from pet shops & rescue
    centres & throwing them in with his pitbulls, which he claimed needed to
    taste blood & kill every day.

    The 'rescued' dogs had their muzzles taped shut so they couldn't defend
    themselves & therefore injure his valuable pitbulls; they also had their
    paws tied together. Then McClellan would set one of his dogs on them as
    they lay there defenseless & terrified, unable to get up or run away,
    unable to cower away
    from the ferocious attack, unable even to yelp.

    Appallingly, McClellan also used to video himself carrying out these
    atrocities - he enjoyed what he was doing so much that he got actual
    pleasure from watching it back later on - he called it
    'entertainment"

    Its a shame what gets done to those dogs..great animals that people ruin...Mitch Green was a 1/2 of crack head and he used to shake down gas stations and convienient stores for money. He was an imposing figure and always had his hand out. As far as Griffith he was the primadonna of the 28th st. gym and he often had young training partners that he showed how to hit the bag (they never got into the ring)He liked young boys and he was a flame. I remember Ken Buchanan was in the gym and he was astonished he was funny because you can see he was homophobic and kept his distance from Griffith who was a flaming ***...I rember one day Griffith was showing Esteban Dejesus how not to telegraph his right hand when he threw it, Esteban would draw it back before firing it. Most of the time even though Griff was the star of the gym a lot of the fighters like Tom"the Bomb" Bethea, quiet but kept there distance..they would keep Tom out of the ring with Griffith but let him bang around BIg 300LB Leroy Jones...I remember they let him go on Jones who was just big and fat not much of a puncher and Tom a head shorter beat him bad, and let it go a while before stopping it.Ringo Bonevena trained there for a spell, and he was a joker and clown....he trained but always playing...Ringo had a thing for hookers and that was his demise getting gunned down in a cat house in Las Vegas...Griffith was funny because his mother used to go to his fights and she looked like the female version of Sonny Liston, masquline and as tough as Griff was he was openly feminine, he even flashed a few spectators in the gym ...he was an oddball for those days and was treated like it by most guys in the gym, however Gil Clancy and Howie Albert treated him like a star

    After reading that story what mcclellan did to those poor helpless dogs, I am glad he got what he go vs benn. he deserved it. he deserves to rot in hell. IF theres one thing I hate in the world, its dog abusers.

    Dogs are Dogs not humans, so no G-Man didn't deserve this awful fate. Also remember, no man is an island, his family has gone broke trying to take of him and must suffer immensely.

    were are all gods creatures. they have a right to live life like humans. they dont deserve to be tortured

    but you are right about his family. it would of probably been better if the **** died in the ring that night

    but then again it would of give the anti boxing league a h-bomb to throw at the sport
