    "Former WBC world middleweight champion Gerald McClellan is planning to sell his title belt so he does not have to move into a care home."

    The uk is screening a documentry monday night about it. I know some hate on him because of the dog fighting thing, but still sad to see a guy who was so good in such bad shape, hate to say it, but maybe he would have been better off dead, thats no way to live, he can barley walk, his memory is only 20 seconds long and hes blind

    Always sad when a fighter ends up like this BECAUSE of boxing.
    There's gonna be accusations made in this doc on Monday night so no doubt it'll be a hot topic on Tuesday.

    Seems pointless selling the belt, i mean how much would he get ?, say he gets $100,000 which may be to high or low as i really dont know, just how long would that last if the bills are getting bigger and bigger monthly ?, guys like don king should step up and do something imo

    Compared to who? I know he's had a few fundraisers for him, it seems like every few years he's in financial trouble.

    Serves the **** right for making a couple of dogs fight while one of them had their mouth duct taped down. Die you muther****er. It's a shame Nigel Benn didn't put you in a grave. ****ing shame.
