Tommy "The Duke" Morrison

ON THIS EPISODE OF OUR CELEBRITY SERIES PODCASTS WE FEATURE A BOXING CHAMPION FORCED TO RETIRE DUE TO AIDS. TOMMY MORRISON WAS THE WBO HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION AND PLAYED THE ROLE OF TOMMY GUNN IN ROCKY 5. BUT IN 1996 HE WAS FORCED TO RETIRE FROM BOXING AFTER TESTING POSITIVE FOR THE AIDS VIRUS. I HAD A CHANCE TO TALK WITH TOMMY IN 2007 BEFORE HIS APPEARANCE AT A MARTIAL ARTS EVENT AT CLIFF CASTLE CASINO.
