    Yes, he had his own part in it. But it was obvious early on that he had little self-restraint, when you can't help yourself you need others to help you. He had many people around him and nobody stepped up to the plate. He had mental problems he needed to deal with.

    Its like seeing a guy, drunk as he can be, going for his car keys at a party. Everyone watches him, smiles, and waves at him as he gets in his car. He doesn't have the capacity to make good judgement for whatever reason, be it mental depression, or whatever, somebody needed to step in for his sake.

    He is part to blame, but I have a feeling that if he wanted to step away from boxing for a period of time to seriously go seek counselling or therapy, he would have had people trying to convice him not to. Or saying here, take this Zoloft, it will make you better you don't need to stop your life.

    Great videos... (Y) I personally think that Robin wasn't realy the main issue, she just speeded up the process of a house crumbling.
