Michael was found living on the streets, feeding himself from the dumpsters outside the Palm restaurant. Even then, he had cultivated tastes. His natural agression was a perfect fit for a boxing career. He amassed an impressive 29-3-1 record, with 14 knockouts, and a win which was fully investigated, with no charges filed. He quietly left boxing after this. He moved naturally into teaching religion. He married his sparring partner, and is expecting to move soon.
