Michael Moorer, former world champion and member of the Boxing Hall of Fame, said that during his time in boxing and since his retirement he has undergone 28 surgeries and lost the ability to smell and taste.
"The damage done to a fighter's body persists long after he takes the gloves off. I am just one of many retired fighters who have been left alone with a long list of injuries without any significant insurance assistance," - said Moorer.
Recall, today it became known that Moorer was included in the Boxing Hall of Fame.
