    “The name of the sport is boxing, not fighting,” “You can play football, you can play basketball, but you can’t play boxing. It’s serious business where you can get hurt every time you step into the ring.“

    Damn, I was watching a couple Cokes fights last week and went on his BoxRec to see if he was still alive. Was happy to see he was still around. RIP champ.
