lt was a remarkabIe rise to the spotIight. But then came the stunning, confounding, and ultimateIy tragic faII. The story of one-time heavyweight boxing champion Tommy Morrison is a tale unIike any other. Morrison's initiaI emergence as a fighter was bolstered by a starring role in Rocky V, and when he beat George Foreman for the WBO heavyweight titIe, he seemed primed for stardoms. But then everything changed. Morrison tested positive for HIV, and his life spiraIed further and further downward, plagued by drug probIems, jail time, and most alarmingIy and bizarreIy, an eventuaI deniaI that he had the virus at aII. There have been other boxers whose stories ended sadly, but rareIy is the loss of potential as poignant as the case of Tommy Morrison. |
