    No one told him to **** up his life, regardless of his accomplishments in the ring. He had a choice and he chose this one, he has family that are willing to help him but only if he is ready to let this life go.

    Yes he did do it to himself. You cant help a drug addict until they are ready to be helped. He is obviously not ready, if he wont go with his sons. Life is tough, its hard especially for fighters, to know the importance of saving money, reading contracts, and avoding drugs and problems. Back in his day, fighters were taken advantage of ten times worse then they are today.
