Pinklon Thomas' death-defying youth and meteoric career
Pinklon Thomas' death-defying youth and meteoric career
WBC heavyweight king Pinklon Thomas describes what it was like to be a heroin addict at 12, a high school dropout at 15, and a strong-armed robber who literally had a contract on his head as a teenager. All of that before he threw the first punch in a boxing career that included fights with Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Morrison, Witherspoon, Weaver, Tillis, Coetzee and Berbick.
How is this man still alive to tell his story? Honestly, he’s not sure.
