    tested HIV positive in 1996, a blow that derailed the career of the former heavyweight champion. But to listen to Morrison tell it, HIV was a ruse to make money and scare people.

    , despite the objections of those in the boxing and medical fields, and capable of boxing. His name showed up on a negative HIV test, bolstering his case, but that test has been disputed. He's also produced a number of positive tests.

    Despite noticeable spots that look like lesions, Morrison apparently is in fairly good health without treatment for HIV. But according to John Gallant, one of the leading HIV specialists in the nation, that "doesn't tell you much one way or the other." Gallant says some people are slow progressers and others hold up fine with no treatment, as is the case with Morrison. Morrison got into an e-mail exchange with Gallant rejecting the expert's opinion, despite Gallant's assertion that it's "a silly debate."

    He continues to live the life of someone without the disease, searching for fights with whoever will take the medical risk and boasting about having unprotected sex with his girlfriend. He has applied with the Nevada Athletic Commission, but relented when they asked for additional tests.

    Morrison, who began his professional career in 1988, held the WBO and IBC heavyweight titles at points in his career. He saw a considerable amount of buzz at the beginning of his career, and was cast to play Tommy Gunn in "Rocky V." He says he's got about two good years of boxing left in him.

    ""I think about boxing more now. I'm better," he says. "They're not used to that. A white guy that has hand speed, power, charisma, and can talk in complete sentences? (Shoot). Sounds like a gold mine to me."
