These men have all the talent but no mind strength to stay on the rite path outside the ring.

    Lisa is the reason he stopped believing he was ill. He stopped taking his medicine and got worse quickly. He was diagnosed in 1989 and kept it a secret. Not one person contracted the disease from him, including people he had sex with and guys he fought in the ring. His own mother knew about the disease before it was even made public. I feel bad about how he was treated after everyone found out about it. In the end he shouldn’t have stopped taking his meds, we might have had a little more time with him. Rest In Peace Tommy.

    He knew he had hiv from as early as 1989. It was no surprise to him, which is why he avoided being tested. He was very casual about his diagnosis from 1989 to 1996 carrying on like he didn't have it sleeping, unprotected with women without declaring it. He continued to deny ever having it till his death.

      You know he didn’t catch HIV from having sex with a woman do you know that right? Research from all these years concludes that it’s very hard to get HIV from a woman. So if a woman has HIV or aids diagnosis, and if a man has sex with her, it is unlikely that she can transmit it. HIV is transmitted mostly 99% of the time through male to male sex either Tommy Morrison was a sex freak, and didn’t care who he had sex with including man. That’s how he got HIV from having sex with another man whether he was a receiver or the giver, it doesn’t matter he got HIV from having sex with a man and that’s a fact

      That's not chunk as in body fat, it's just food and probably GH. GH will make the intestines and organs grow and make the stomach protrude out more. Also, when you have to eat so much like heavyweights do, they will have distended bellies. He probably had a big meal before he trained like most heavyweights do. Tommy was a strong guy though, you gotta have that look and body shape to be strong, there's no way around that.

    Later on, Morrison and his last wife Trisha claimed he was misdiagnosed. She is currently taking the matter to court and has had at least a measure of success, though she is finding it nearly impossible to rise above the "red tape" and impeding nature of our judicial system, especially at the SCOTUS level since they will only accept a tiny fraction of cases that come their way, and this due almost solely to time constraints alone. However, no one who takes the time to hear her out can deny that she is at least bringing a measure of doubt to the accepted, mostly media-induced narrative about his career-ending diagnosis and eventual death.
    For instance, if Morrison was truly HIV positive, AND he was as profanely promiscuous as has been reported, why has there never been a single person associated with him in any way who turned out to be HIV positive, including Trisha herself? Furthermore, why has there never been another positive diagnosis for Morrison himself, including from tests taken of tissue samples harvested on the day of his death supposedly from HIV-related ailments?" It seems logical to the casual observer that that last tissue sample should have been riddled with the virus. And all of this is despite the fact that he was reported to have never taken the diagnosis as seriously as he should, and apparently wasn't very proficient at taking his meds. And why does the doctor who made the original HIV diagnosis now say that he never suggested that Tommy was HIV positive?
    Just food for thought, that's all, but I would encourage anyone to find one of Trisha's interviews on the web (including some right here on TH-cam) and give her a listen before picking a side.
    RIP, Duke. I miss your unwavering courage, confidence and skill in the ring, and your unusually respectful pre and post-fight interviews. God bless those who love and miss you and look forward to being with you again.

    @Taylorslade123 yeah he did show how good he was at boxing in Rocky V especially his uppercuts which are just like clockwork. The fight scene at the end is so entertaining because it's so brutal and deviates from boxing itself which makes it more fun.
    It's a shame if his health is just going to continue deteriorating but at least he's accomplished a lot in his days as a boxer.

    The thing is he lived over 20 years even though they said he stopped taking medication nobody would live that long. most of them die 3 to 4 years later. He died of multiple organ failure which is the same thing a lot of bodybuilders die from the uses of steroids and his excessive use of drugs.

    The comeback. Meaning the cover up and crimes committed in order for a few more dollars generated for greedy promoters. This guy had plenty of opportunities to get tested in front of boxing commissions and he wouldn't do it. Because he was a liar and a drug addict. It sucks but that's the reality is that him and Trisha are scammers.

      Looked good😳very fake chest implants
      Biceps even did his calves
      The make up Ladies came later.
      Now the fact's
      Failed every drug test
      Tested positive multiple times multiple stacks of roids.
      His own mother told the boxing committee
      My boy has progressed HIV
      Tested positive for meth
      Coke
      Fought so hung over
      His boxing team of zero talent's
      Found him fried
      6 times before paid fights.
      The gun runnings and drug charges held up
      And put him in federal prison.
      Medical gaze
      Does not age the human cellar changes
      AIDS did
      He aged in these pics and videos
      45 Plus year old
      Easy.
      The bull shit he stacked in his Body
      Of silicone
      Absolutely insane.
      You may check his real arrest and probation
      Problem's.
      Why he passed test he failed
      Tommy was used cashed out
      Follow the money 💰
      Ethics
      None
      Once promotions list the cash pig
      He was fallen
      And cashed out.
      Each fighter has a limited edition on cash
      George foreman
      A miracle
      Of the cash flow still flowing.
      Tommy all these amateur
      Fights
      Never given the keys
      To be a proven great fighter
      Age 10 they teach you
      How to grab when your hurt
      Each fight
      His bell was blasted
      He got up zero defenses
      And got blasted again
      Without even a grab hold on and recover
      This is tough man mentally exhausted exploded 💔
      4 rounds in many cases
      Roids
      At this level
      Can provide even more power
      They also fall short
      Lactic acid
      Builds
      No hate
      He dead
      Hope he found a kinder resting spot.
      No real man 4 pity sakes
      Makes a bed with implants.
      Gaze
      The least of the problems.
      Tommy has a great left hook
      They bet
      On just that
      Instead of teaching him real life skills in boxing and real 🧬.
