A Terrible Idea
Former WBC and WBA heavyweight champion "Terrible" Tim Witherspoon, age 48, has told Bernard Fernandez of the Philadelphia Daily News that he wants to make a comeback as a fighter.
Witherspoon has not fought in almost three years, losing his last two bouts to Lou Savarese and Brian Nix. He had been a trainer, but had trouble keeping fighters since, according to the article, he only sealed deals with handshakes and not contracts.
"The way things are today, you got to put something on paper," he is quoted as advising.

Doesn't Terrible Tim read blogs?
Lame jests aside, it is a sad move, though perfectly understandable.
