Tommy Morrison is either a medical miracle or the biggest moron in the world. In an interview with Philadelphia Boxing Report, Morrison claims that he is no longer HIV positive and the original diagnosis was inaccurate. He is attempting a comeback that would be “the greatest in the history of boxing.”
There are several different types of dietary supplements that were on the market back then, that I was taking, and there were a couple of other different things I was taking that would cause a false positive, with the test they were administering back then. They test that they give you doesn’t pick up the virus itself, it only picks up the anti-bodies. So if your exposed to something, and your body is built up to protest yourself the way it is supposed to, your [sic] still going to test positive. It has been undetectable in my blood for the last 6 or 7 years, and that’s as far as I am going to go with that. People will find out more about that, when we decide to go to Vegas and take care of this thing.
Remember, this is a guy who founded the KO AIDS foundation and said he might have gotten AIDS fighting a guy who died of it in 1990. But somehow, he’s HIV free now and ready to make a comeback even though doctors tell him it’s still in his system.
Oh, and the kicker? He wants to fight Mike Tyson. If Tyson had any sense at all, he won’t try to bite his ear off… cause… you know… only Morrison has the power to get rid of HIV.
