    The last footage of him fighting in that barn is sad. I still found it pretty funny because I'm a **** but when you think deeper into it, its ****ing sad man.

    It is hard to make a comeback when your body is wrecked by AIDS and you can only fight on Indian reservations where they don't care if you infect the other fighter. Morrison is a delusional joke.

    Morrison's combined professional and amateur record is 343–24–1, with 315 wins by knockout.

    the above is from Wiki

    I think these numbers make Tommy one of the biggest punchers of all time

    He was arrested and was smoking meth. That picture was floating around of him not long ago. He looked like death

    If Tommy Morrison actually "cured" his HIV as he's claimed at various times, he would actually be more famous from a medical standpoint

    "WICHITA, Kan. - Former heavyweight boxing champion Tommy Morrison is in a Kansas jail on drug charges, the Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office said Friday.

    Morrison, 42, made an initial court appearance Thursday on two charges - possession of marijuana after a previous conviction, a felony, and possession of drug paraphernalia, a misdemeanor. His bail is set at $50,000.

    The former Jay, Okla., resident was charged April 27, court records show.

    Morrison was extradited to Kansas from Tennessee this week, officials said. Morrison's previous conviction stems from a 2005 South Dakota drug arrest.

    Morrison's preliminary hearing is set for Sept. 29, and details of the charges will remain confidential until then, officials said.

    A financial affidavit from Morrison states that he is married and lives inPigeon Forge, Tenn., and that he has no savings or property, the Wichita Eagle reported.

    On a court document, on the line asking for his occupation, he wrote "athelete," the newspaper reported.

    Morrison started his boxing career in "toughman" contests in Jay and fought his way to the top in 1993 by defeating George Foreman for the World Boxing Organization heavyweight title.

    He went on to star in "Rocky V" and made several television appearances.

    In 1996, it was reported that Morrison had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

    He has been convicted numerous times of alcohol, assault, drug and weapons crimes and spent 14 months in an Arkansas prison, reports indicate."
