Don King, on Mike Tyson


"Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter?
He went to prison, not to Princeton."



"To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music
and the dancers hit each other."

Boxer Matt Remillard sentenced to 5 years

Boxer Matt Remillard sentenced to 5 years for beating Connecticut man with baseball bat - The Washington Post:

Before losing in March, Matt Remillard had held the featherweight titles of the North American Boxing Federation...

The victim, 22-year-old Jordan Evans, said Remillard pummeled him with a bat asRemillard went berserk. 

After the attack, doctors had to reconstruct the top front of Evans’ head using plates, screws and 150 stitches.

The assault happened at the home of Danielle Napolitano, Evans’ then-girlfriend and Remillard’s ex-girlfriend.

Danielle Napolitano was charged with conspiracy to commit assault in connection with the beating. Her brother and her cousin were charged with assault, conspiracy and criminal mischief.  The charges against all three were dropped because of their cooperation in the prosecution of their friend, Matt.

Another promising career interrupted by violence and jail time.
