Believing in the existence of God is probably an advantage. However didnt he get ripped off by his management team - or at least there was the usual massive dispute when the boxer finally retires and finds all his winning gone - spent on training camps and entourage..

No - I think 'the other guy' definitely has pro boxing as his domain.

Not really the place, but it involved a deal over some land north of Auckland. He was using his religion and celebrity to try to con some people and it backfired on him. I think it was kevin barry who swindled him back, on the same deal.
