Not good news for HBO who had just signed him to a fat contract. They've also recently signed Vernon Forrest, another knock out victim. Prince Hamed was exposed as the fraud that he truly was. Lennox Lewis is eyeing retirement. Sugar Shane Mosely can't win a fight to save his life.
At least they still have Roy Jones and his future fights against unknown light heavyweights.
Boxing is in a sad state in general. It's sad to watch. The only guy I really like is local hero Paul Spadafora, who btw puts on a defensive boxing clinic every time he fights.
Boxing will only get better when Don King dies or is institutionalized. And Bob Arum too. The promoters have taken a truly great and compelling sport and ruined it compeletely.
(I know that was off topic somewhat, but I needed to rant.)
