Not only is he on drugs, and a washed up fighter... He is a dead Beat Father. He has more than 6 kids with different women, none of which he supports or even claimes. He has been running from the law and child support for years. He doesnt file for taxes and he uses his so called "fame" to get by. I hope he gets what he deserves!!! God doesn't like ugly( as he always used to say), and his picture shows it all!!!

Hmm.......too many shots to the head. Another high-speed organ donor in motion. That's quite a run down US70 on anything, much less a speed bike. Another example of more money than brains.......
