    REED, nice rendering. You've even captured the facial abnormalities Gatti developed by way of his steroid abuse.

    I guess we no longer need worry ourselves that all of his wars will leave Gatti later in life in the compromised physical state that so many ex-fighters find themselves in such as Ali, Roach and Meldrick Taylor.

    Absolutely not. They DEFINITELY were, in fact, the result of steroid abuse. No doubt about it whatsoever...

    REED Spent about 6 Weeks @ a Local Art School, but that was when REED was ALREADY in his 20's...Honestly, REED DIDN"T Learn Shit There...REED's Old Man was an Artist & REED's been Drawing even Loooooooooonger than he's Been Watching Boxing...He Came By the Talent NATURALLY...The Only Bit of "Advice" that REED's Father Gave him was to "Draw what U See":lol:...

    REED's Done Quite a Few Sketches...Roy (3x), Dela, Tito, Vargas, Tyson, Sugar Shane, Gatti, Ali (2x), JC Chavez, Salvador Sanchez, & Many Others...REED's even Started Some MMA Sketches N the Last Month or So...

    Do we need to worry ourselves about the compromised physical state of Joey Gamache?

    Nicely done.

    Not that Reed's drawings were bad before, but I think they've improved over time.

    Good work, Reed. I think it is weird how different people's brains can be. I couldn't even trace something that looked like Arturo Gatti, lol.

    No. I don't think so. He's clearly got the face of a steroid abuser. Just like Holyfield. Just like Hopkins.

    People are so naive. There's hardly a single elite fighter who doesn't or hasn't used some kind of steroid. And those that have used them more - well, guess what, it affects their facial features over a long period of time.
