Kids that loose a parent to suicide are massively more likely to do it themselves. I think he just means that it often passes the demons on 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 5,648 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Shame. Think he struggled to find purpose after his career ended. Still a legend for me in terms of British boxing. RIP Hitman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jukel123 9,472 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) He came up short when pitched against world class fighters like Pacquiao and Mayweather. The defeats affected him badly. I remember him saying he felt people were laughing at him and that he had somehow betrayed his fans. He blew up in weight and hit the white stuff. Men's mental health is fragile and boxers are particularly prone to depression after a defeat or after retirement. Shame. Edited 1 hour ago by jukel123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
