Very distant relation to Wayne.
He was a druggie [steroids] and got AIDs then went off the deep end claiming his positive tests were a conspiracy to get him out of boxing. He used to come to the World Boxing HOF shows in Los Angeles. He was a larger than life character, that's for sure. Interesting and disturbing factoid: he did not wash his hands after going to the bathroom. I saw that happen in the bathroom of the hotel where the WBHOF show was held.
If he was fighting today he'd be in the mix, though I do not think he could beat either Klitschko.
