    McClellan for being a disturbed animal abuser. From what I read in some articles. If it's true, he was a sick person. While I don't wish him any harm, you could say he got what was coming to him.

    Roy Jones and steroids - Calzaghe commenting "He's like superman". Was that really a phenomenally athletic "real" Roy Jones or was that just the steroids doing the talking for him on those amazing YouTube clips?

    And Margarito - :| :-( :twisted:

    The trick was that when he wanted to box again he had to go back on the brain injury explanation or he wouldn't be licensed. Not sure how it ended up worded, but he did have to claim his brain was "fine".

    I'm not actually sure, but it is not something that can be absolutely proven one way or another.

    It is more of a philosophical question of how much moral responsibility can be taken from him.

    All I know is that the trauma in the ring did take its toll, and his personality is now different.

    Bowe was a tragic case.

    This is probably the only thing that comes to mind. Because of the sensitivity of his case I do not berate the man, and I make it a rule never to allow private and professional to overlap.

    But I do not like the man.

    Jones was tested positive once,as was his opponent in that fight.And the steroids he took weren't performance enhancing.They were for recovery.And he's been tested many times since and hasn't tested positive.

    'little Floyd' after he moved up in weight. For not fighting an elite welter. In my opinion is clearly a ducker. How can he be considered p4p the best when he is campaining as a welter but is yet to face a top ranked welter.
