Tough for him, there was a huge stigma around HIV in the 90s. There is still some but it's mostly viewed as a chronic disease and not much more these days.
Interesting thing is magic Johnson was diagnosed with HIV and he always looked like a guy you never would think contracted HIV and still alive and well to this day and he was diagnosed in early 90s when it was considered a death sentence! Goes to show if your wealthy enough and a admired public icon and can afford to pay and receive the best treatment and have the best medical professionals around u it's something u can beat and survive unfortunately yrs sgo if you were poor and couldn't afford best treatment and had no insurance it pretty much was s death sentence
REAL BOXING REAL LIFE Great Memory I forgot about this story ,Tommy MORRISON was a genuine person even though he contracted the virus but this video speaks gems on how not to live while living. APPRECIATED AAWEREADY 🥊🥊🇺🇸
I remember the fear of contracting AIDs in the 80's and 90s. If one had "casual" sex without protection you took your life in your hands unless you knew the entire sexual history of that person and their partners.
@@0000YumYum0000 nah he never had it he tested negative his last two fights and was negative for ever having the virus in his autopsy. Something fishy happened with that test that has yet to be explained.
He never had hiv he had a false positive that sparked this. The expert's have looked at this he was tested twice his last two fights and was negative and his autopsy he was tested again negative never had the virus in his body. It was a sham for God knows what. Also the chances of passing hiv between a straight sex is very unlikely women are more at risk of recieving it from men and most straight men get it from intravenous drug use or they are secretly gay or have had gay sex 95% of the time it's very rare for a man to get hiv from a woman.
@@jamesrobert4106Absolutely correct. Female to male transmission is damn near impossible. The two major groups of HIV contraction are homosexual men and intravenous drug users. He gave the world the Magic Johnson bs story.
Should of kept on his meds, he was incredibly durable considering he was a massive partier and also having AIDS since 1989, would of lived a long life if it wasn’t his denial.I think he was probably homosexual.
You clearly know nothing of the medication they were giving out at that time first off it took people with hiv to an early grave it didn't save anyone it killed hundreds of thousands of people who without it could've of lived decades with the virus naturally. Shit was a mess and fauci yes covid fauci was the head of knowingly spreading hope in a drug he knew would kill these people and continued pushing it after that was an established fact it caused the whole scare that if you get hiv you die in a year no if you get hiv and take the meds you will die in a year is the real truth of that time. And secondly he never had hiv this has been established now with his last two fights it was confirmed and again with his autopsy it was a lie all along.

Great boxer and a great guy. RIP brother.😔
Sad story. He seemed like a good guy. In the 90s there was such a stigma around aids. If you caught it you'd be dead in a year, they said

Tommy Morrison morreu novo demais. O vírus HIV pegou pesado e nocauteou o campeão. Uma lenda, um campeão.

@@godislord3377 i heard of dude that got cured of it with stemcell ..
Maria schriver is the interviewer
Turns out he never had HIV. All this time, Tony, his promoter had lied.
Huh??
Right...he just happen to die from AIDS related complications.
He was a bootie bandit

@@stevenazevedo860 He had that Anally infected death sentence
Scared his mom into submission. Got her off a homicide charge. Speculation.
How is wife was hiv negative makes me wonder !
He was homosexual.
So was all of eazy e’s girlfriends, and magic Johnson’s wife. You don’t always pass it on.

That’s what I was thinking myself!
@@angelanetherton8240 there was no reason for him to hide it ,apart from a small town stigma, chances of catching AIDS from a woman are slim to none.
@@angelanetherton8240 1-900 or something.^
