    The thread about Winky Wright got me thinking,

    What the hell happened to the guy who beat him for the WBO 154 title, Harry Simon?

    I just looked up his record on boxrec and he never lost a fight. He fought at 190 lbs as recently as last year, but has huge gaps in his record after 2002.

    I think he was involved in a horrible car crash where he was at fault. I'm pretty sure he spend some of his prime years in prison as a result.

    I am sure he was involved in two seperate car crashes a couple of years apart where people died in both of them, one of them a young girl, and he fled the scene both times apparently he was speeding and over the alcohol limit.

    So was rightly sent to prison
