The father of Boston Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown is facing an attempted murder charge in Las Vegas after police say he stabbed another man during a parking lot confrontation. According to authorities, officers were called to the 1500 block of South Buffalo Drive at 5.42pm Tuesday, where they found a man suffering from multiple stab wounds. The victim was taken to a local hospital and remained in critical condition.
Listed at 7ft tall with an 86in reach, he fought professionally from 1989 through 2008, then again from 2014 through 2016 following a six-year retirement, compiling a 33-18-1 record with 25 knockouts. He also served on the board of the Hawaii state boxing commission. He was a formative influence on Jaylen's independence as a young athlete, encouraging him to enter the 2016 NBA draft without an agent so he could negotiate his own first contract.
