    Yeah, but he was juicing more than anyone could get away with today. It's how he got HIV to begin with.

    Likely true. Morrison was a 210 pound heavyweight in the early portions of his career with some body fat. Suddenly the fat was gone and he had lots of muscle.

    I think quite a few of the top talents in the 1990's ( Roy Jones ) were juicing as it was before VADA testing and human growth hormone wasn't quite in vogue.

    Morrison admitted using steroids. A fool, but an honest one.

    Yeah I remember that scene from 28 days later. That big Irish guy got one drop of blood from a dead zombie hit his eye and seconds later he turned into a zombie as well.

    Amazing an insurance policy test picked it up but none of the commission tests did for 7 years. Did they just not blood test during those years? Didn't he once have the same manger or some business associate as Tyson who said Morrison lifestyle made Tyson look like a choir boy,. Crazy how none of his ex wifes or kids have h.i.v

    Do boxers have blood tests today before fights?

    Hometown Miami, Oklahoma, population 13,570 people.
    Probably laid some pipe on a bunch of cowgirls around that
    corner of NE Oklahoma.
