There is no way parkinsons is a boxing related disease,many millions of people have had it,and they never threw a punch in their lives.I will admit that boxing does not help the situation,but out of the 100's of thousands of fighters out there,how many could you name with the disease!Because I think parkinsons in our society would be about what,5 to 10%,would it be the same amount in boxing or would it be about 2%,just because a few high profile fighters got it,doesn't mean that anyone that straps on a glove will get it,and if thats the case how about this MMA shitt in 20yrs from now?

 

im pretty sure SRR had parkinsons also. i dont think its boxing related either.

however, i read somewhere that lead could be a cause. up until a few years ago, lead was one of the ingredients in the **** they put on a boxers eyes to stop cuts bleeding....

could be a link?

lead in cutmans salve..

Monsel's solution This widely-outlawed [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemostatic"]hemostatic[/ame] quickly stops the blood flow by chemically [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauterization"]cauterizing[/ame] the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_tissue"]tissues[/ame] surrounding the cut, while generating severe [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulation_tissue"]scar tissue[/ame]. The application of a lead-based hemostatic can be recognized by the appearance of a dark ring of damaged tissue around the cut. However, Monsel's solution is an iron (sub)sulfate solution, contrary to popular misconception[4]—which contains no lead.

lead and parkinsons...
