Boxers with DUI problems

Boxers Behaving Badly Update:

Toxicology test results showed that Diego Corrales had a blood-alcohol content of 0.25 percent – more than three times Nevada’s legal limit of 0.08 percent – when he died last month after crashing his motorcycle in southwest Las Vegas.

Corrales, who had previously been arrested multiple times for drunk driving, was riding without a valid license and was apparently speeding when he crashed.

Camacho, who was also sentenced to two years of probation, has another upcoming trial for alleged possession of the drug Ecstasy.

Kevin Rooney, a former fighter who received far more recognition as one of the men who helped build Mike Tyson into a heavyweight champion, was sentenced June 12 to five years of probation and fined $2,295, according to New York’s Kingston Daily Freeman.

Rooney had pleaded guilty last month to driving drunk, a felony charge due to his having been previously convicted of drunken driving within 10 years of his April 2006 arrest.
