303 for 30: Tommy (star of Rocky 5 "Tommy The Machine Gunn"

Postby AkydefGoldberg » Feb 28, '18, 4:38 am

I watched this 30 for 30 episode on Tommy Morrison, more broadly remembered for his role in Rocky 5 as Tommy 'The Machine' Gunn. B

ut as a boxer in real-life, he became a hot prospect winning his first 20 odd fights before defeats set him back. He did win a world title but the usual temptations cost him a more stronger in-ring career and his lifestyle ended up with him being confirmed as HIV positive. His death in 2013 preceded a come back attempt in 2011 and around that time, denying he had HIV when he did.
