I know he was 75, but had he been in bad health, or was his death generally unexpected?
RIP Emile Griffith ATG... Another sad day for our sport

Ah lineal champion, not too many of those these days. Sounded like a hell of a fighter. 75 is kind of young these days. Wasn't there a movie made about the life of Griffith?
