ORIGINAL: badprofessor That is an excellent question, and one I didn't consider. I was just thinking one's name as evidence enough. Hasnt Muhammed Ali suffered enough? They guy was a former boxer and heavyweight champion, and now has Parkinson's disease. What is wrong with you people? Sinergy is it definitely parkinson's, or just the after-effects from so many blows to the head over the years? (serious question) kitten, wondering quote:
In 1984, Ali discovered he had Parkinson's disease, a neurological syndrome characterized by tremors, rigidity of muscles and slowness of speech and movement, following which his motor functions began a slow decline. Although Ali's doctors disagreed about whether his symptoms were caused by boxing and whether or not his condition was degenerative, he was ultimately diagnosed with Pugilistic Parkinson's syndrome.[13] According to the documentary When We Were Kings, when Ali was asked about whether he has any regrets about boxing due to his disability, he responded that if he didn't box he would still be a painter in Louisville, Kentucky. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Ali
