(EVER FIGHTERS GOT THE SAME
STORY IT SEEMS: AND THE
TOUGHEST FIGHTS NEVER TAKE
PART IN A RING. FOR NEW
HAVEN'S TREMAINE MIGHTY MIDGET
WILLIAMS, HE'S BEEN THROUGH
ALL THE FIGHTS. FRIENDS, JAIL,
PROBATION, PAROLE. AND HE'S
STILL ON HIS FEET. I THINK I'M
DOING IT MY WAY NOW. I GOT A
LOT OF DISTRACTIONS OUT OF MY
LIFE. I GOT REFOCUSED. HE
ADMITS HE WASN'T ALWAYS
FOCUSED. BAKC IN 2014 BEFORE A
FIGHT AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN
HE SENTENCED TO TWO AND A HALF
YEARS FOR POSSESION OF AN
ASSAULT WEAPON AND NARCOTTICS.
FOR THE BETTER OR FOR THE
WORST? IT MADE ME LONELY,
WHEN I'M THINKING ABOUT BOXING
IT MADE ME LONELY. AND I
SUFFERED A DEPRESSION FROM
BEING LONELY. IT SHOWED ME
THAT SOMETIMES, PEOPLE REALLY
DON'T CARE. IF YOU CAN'T DO
NOTHING FOR NOBODY, THEY DON'T
CARE ABOUT YOU TO BE HONEST
WITH YOU. MIDGET MADE IT
THROUGH PRISON. BUT THE BELL
DIDN'T RING JUST YET. I CAME
HOME IN OCTOBER AND THEY TOLD
MY GRANDMOTHER SHE ABOUT 90
DAYS TO LIVE AND IN DECEMBER
SHE PASSED. HIS GRANDMOTHER
DIED IN DECEMBER OF HEART
FAILURE. THE FIRST PERSON I
WOULD CALL AFTER A FIGHT WOULD
BE MY GRANDMOTHER. ANOTHER
PERSON BY MIDGETS SIDE WAS
TRAINER BRIAN CLARK. BUT
THINGS HAVE CHANGED. I'M A
GROWN MAN, SINCE 9 YOU WERE
LIKE A FATHER TO ME AND
EVERYBODY DAMN NEAR IN NEW
HAVEN BUT YOU GET TO THIS
PLACE WHERE ITS MY WAY OR THE
HIGH WAY SO I HIT I-95. MIDGET
NO LONGER TRAINS AT RING ONE,
BRIANS GYM. HE SAYS THERE ARE
