    Obviously it's sad for him to die at such an early age even if I don't know who he is but does this really belong on gamegrep?

      Well, it does say that he was a character in Fight Night, so I suppose it does belong here on gamegrep.

      I haven't actually heard of him before, but may he rest in peace.

    I thought that we were done with the whole "if you're famous, then you're going to die" trend these past few weeks. What the hell ?

        not having a go or anything, but how can you say that!

        he fought the greatest trilogy of boxing matches (him vs Ward) in the history of boxing. I expect him to be inducted into the Hall of Fame soon enough, he deserves it.

    I cant actually believe it.

    In my eyes he is the true image of the perfect sportsman, and he was a warrior. I looked up to him.
