    Oliver McCall Vs Lennox Lewis II.......such a public breakdown was hard to watch.

    Chris Eubank "Blair, don't send our young prince to your catastrophic illegal war to make it look plausible." and driving off in a beer truck.

    Herbie Hyde: arrested for assault of a woman and speeding and something happened in Tottenham a number of years ago that escapes me.

    Who was it who had someone else complete their community service for them?

    To be honest i think most people would be mental when your a lil kid watching your mother raped like that.

    That's why we all love Johnny. A Walking Film With The Heart Of A Lion

    Jason Booth's turnaround is quite remarkable really. fair play to him for that. As much as we are like a bunch of women in this thread gossiping, there really is something of substance for a fella to battle his demons like that.

    I think he also got done in the early 90s for sexual assault

    Look, let's get one thing straight here. Boxers, in general, are never the smartest and most educated of people in the first place. Boxing teaches them discipline and is a strict sport where leading a bad life outside the ring will invariably get you into trouble inside it. Once all that strict control stops then these guys will revert to type with old friends and all that.

    And besides, anybody who willingly chooses to get repeatedly punched in the head for a living must have some kind of insanity gene to begin with. Most will go off the rails. The real story are the ones that are able to make the transition well after a succesful career. I'd like to see a list of those. Richie Woodhall seems to have done well.

    Firstly, these are fake. Secondly, DLH has probably slept with more women than everyone in the Brit Forum combined. :lol:

    Agreed.

    De La Hoya is a ***** magnet.

    The quality of women screaming him on at fights is impressive.

    His missus is ok.

    But he has very glamrous fans. :shock: - he ****s supermodels for fun.

    His good looks - million dollar smile , charm and sophiscation and huge bank account $$$$ - means he has bedded over 1000 women. :good

    Tommy Morrison went through some bad ****, taking and then dealing steroids - for which I believe he did time, contracting HIV by screwing countless women in a careless manner and finally embarking on a return to the ring after convincing himself and some backward licensing committees that he didn't have the virus, sporting some rather fetching fake pecs!! Still find him an intriuging character. He was on the cusp of a major money showdown with Tyson too. Someone should right his life story. I bet it would be proper interesting
