Former DC Boxer May Be Accused of Murder!

Earlier this week, the Washington Post reported on a fatal stabbing in Southeast, DC. The man accused of the stabbing and charged with first-degree murder was identified as 37-year-old Michael Tidline.

I am trying to check to see if this is the same Michael Tidline that fought here in DC in the 1990's. Tidline (also known as Tidline-El) fought from 1993-2003 and had a record of 10-18-3 with three KO's. He fought the likes of Beltway Boxers DeMarcus Corley, Teddy Reid and Anthony Suggs as well as noted boxers Tracy Harris Patterson, Dorin Spivey and "Contender:Season 2" participant Michael Stewart.

If someone else has any info on this, please let me and the fans know.

Yes that is him, but I must tell you he was not the shooter. He was driving the brown box caprice and he had no idea that the two with him even had a piece with them. He may get found guilty anyway, but the other two have already said that he was the driver and had no idea what-so-ever to what was about to go down. The PO! LICE! have once again jumped the gum on this one. They are always just trying to close a case. They are lazy and need more training. The car had legal tags and belonged to his Aunt Jessie. He will make bond sometime monday and he will give you the entire story then. This is totally unfair...
