I agree. I never heard of a boxer aquiring such a disease.

When you never look for it, you don't find it.

I also discount statements that say "he looked fine" "they never had it" because we don't know what lesser-known players had or have.

What we do know is we have a high number of men in 1 sport with this disease who have died at young ages, many by their own hand.
