Proof

[edit]

Where is the evidence that he has "incurable degenerative brain damage from boxing"? That really must be substantiated. There are boxers, like Muhammad Ali, who have diseases which are not from blows to the head. Alzheimer's, aneurism, tumors, etc. can all exhibit such. The fact that it is "degenerative" makes it seem less likely to be caused by ring injuries than to be some disease. Boxing does cause brain injuries sometimes or perhaps always. This manifestation seems dubious however.

Facts. Proof. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.132.32.226 (talk) 19:23, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

old comments

[edit]

You know that he's dead, right? He's been dead for at least three years.


Double Standard

[edit]

How come Rahman Ali and other members of Muhammad Ali's family can have articles, many seemingly only for being Muhammad Ali's relatives, but when I wrote about Clara Benitez, it was merged here! She was as notable as Muhammad Ali's mom!

Double standard, I think. "Antonio Fairuza's Dark Lover Martin" 9:02, October 8, 2008 (UTC)

Boxing record

[edit]

Benitez opponents' record are shown for each fight instead of his own record. This is different from any other fighter I have seen on Wiki. It should be changed to his record to be consistent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TimPhelan (talkcontribs) 17:04, 22 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
