    hmm says.... dude dies in the hospital after the fight, his mother commits suicide afterward out of grief, then the ref commits suicide from guilt of not stopping the fight, then Boom Boom Mancini is guilt stricken and hesitate to return to the ring.

    or

    the 7 people Pac killed, via heart-attack, from the Pac-Hatton fight.

    you aren't fit to eat his ****.

    anyway, I can't trust ****ing british tabloid media. The fact that numerous british sporting sites, and only British ones, keep publishing articles describing that aspect of G-Man tells me a lot about these fools. To quote a poster: "they need an excuse to savor the win because they know what happened" Now you got stupid fools like Ruskull running around, who probably never ever heard of this man before and never watched any of his fights, shamelessly labeling him as a piece of ****, guy's a ******.

    The one thing that always struck with me from the Tyson case was her testimoney that he attacked her and she asked if she could use the bathroom......she said he let her. She said she sat in the bathroom thinking "Oh mY God what am i going to do?" and when she left the bathroom Tyson raped her!

    But when I watched a documentary on the case years ago they said that there was a phone in the bathroom! If she really thought she was in danger why didnt she just pick it up and call the front desk or the police?

    and why did Don King let a Tax attorney represent Mike in the case?

    First thing that came to my mind. Some would argue that he should have had the smarts to quit and fight another day, but the fact the he carried on and ultimately to his death is both extremely tragic, and yet heroic. He literally gave up his life in trying to win. I think he actually wrote in his hotel bathroom mirror that he was going to win, or he was going to die trying. A true warrior.

    What is even more tragic about the case is that the referee commited suicide later on. Whether it was because of the fight or not is debatable but it surely couldn't have helped as it was a big case at the time - in a time of public tv and not PPV.

    I believe Kim also had a new born baby at the time as well, and his mother also committed suicide because of his death.

    Truly a tragic story of boxing.
