Moving along, Bedford talks about the impact that prison fights can have on an entire community before revisiting a few slugfests of his own. As the conversation moves along, Bedford talks about getting released from prison at the age of 49 and what it was like to transition from being an inmate to selling cars and coaching youth basketball.
