He also bought a cave to live in as he thought the world was coming to an end some years before his death ! he was still shagging his first wife up until he could no longer walk ! A film is apparently to be made of his life , it will be interesting , he never had a good start to life his dad had him brawling in pubs at 14 for money and brought prostitutes for him after .

I never knew that, then again I never really followed Tommy’s personal life or of those around him.

His widow was a known liar as she also falsified documents to claim life insurances

In the interview his widow explains the reason of what killed him and it wasn’t his lifestyle.

Read your original post and then the extra....very interesting indeed what you added.

Edit - His former wife Trisha was correct.

Tommy morrison what a star ! He was found to be married to 2 women in 1996 ,Dawn gilbert and dawn freeman i think , he falsified blood tests so he could be allowed to fight , he was hiv positive in a number of his fights !
His then wife Trisha always denied he had aids
He had been in and out of prison for assault, drunk driving etc

Tommy Morrison.

My great friend Dan Hewitt who owns boxing tv received a telephone call from his widow Tommy Trish Morrison in which she tells the story of his life and the untold truth regarding the real reason behind his death.

Anyone know much about Tommy’s reported passing?.

Edit - shameless plug but for those interested in a great show with interviews of those up and coming boxers, title holders and the greats of yesteryear then it’d be great if you could give it a watch and maybe even a like and a share or two.

Agree, GGG admitted he was not the same level as real world class opponents. Knocked the ring rust off though. I will be very interested to see what happens next.

BJS might start waving his hands in the air again?

Andrade has to fit in somewhere he has been banging the drum for a while.

I would like to see the above two fight it out

GGG says he will fight anybody, I don’t doubt that, at 38 I firmly believe a Canelo rematch next year is the real goal for mr G

Pathetic mandatory fight in my opinion golovkin completely outclassed him, 21st defence a record .

Watched the fight, not sure about the change in style though, threw the jab very well but the timing was out at times, landed some brilliant upper cuts. Maybe he has reinvented himself for Canelo 3?

Looked in great shape thought, prefer the old looping bombs and aggression if I’m honest

Great fighter though
