Summary:The stay was ordered despite a bizarre performance by [Trevor Berbick] during two days of hearings in October. He accused former world champion Larry Holmes of masterminding a conspiracy to wrong him, and blamed rigged juries for convicting him of crimes he didn't commit. Berbick, who was acquitted in Halifax in 1989 of raping a 16- year-old, still blames Holmes for his problems in America, claiming he encouraged the babysitter to make a false complaint to police.

Anywhere from 45 to 49 years old, and with a bulging belly and greying hair, he still hopes to regain the world title he claims was stolen from him. ;
