Is Darren Sutherland Dead?

I just cant believe it, my brother went to school with him :(

Horrible news. I watched all his fights durning the Olympics and really liked his style and personality, I been checking up on his career and think he would have made some great fights with the best in the future. Like I said Horrible news, this is the worst kind of news since he was so young and had so much promise. R.I.P

Truly awful news... really shocked by this. I was convinced he was destined for the very top of the sport. Very sad if the reports of suicide are true, we will wait and see. It goes to show there's only so much you see in the public eye and a lot that you don't.

It's such a shame cos his future really was bright. He was probaly the best prospect in Ireland and the UK. Him and Kell Brook would of been future stars in the world of Boxing. maybe we will find out more tomorrow. Maybe so, man :(

It must have been something like that. Maybe he suffered from depression, we may never know as you say. But for a man who had a very bright future in the sport he loved...I can't understand how he could do it. Knowing all that he was throwing away. I just can't get my head around it. He must have been truly hurt to do it. Yeah I think he was due to fight October. It's such a shame cos his future really was bright. He was probaly the best prospect in Ireland and the UK.

He must of been really unhappy with life to commit suicide. maybe split with his girl? We may never know! I think he was set to fight in October too. It must have been something like that.

Yeah exactly. I just don't understand why he's done this.. He must of been really unhappy with life to commit suicide. maybe split with his girl? We may never know! I think he was set to fight in October too.

Didn't he beat DeGale 4 times out of 5 in the amatuers? Soon as I seen him fight pro, I knew he was a special talent. Yeah exactly. I just don't understand why he's done this..

never heard of him, RIP.

I told everyone he'd beat DeGale in the pros. And I stand by that. He would have been a great champion. Great raw talent and power. I remember rushing out of a class last year to see his Olympic fight with Degale being beamed into the university that he attended also. Can't believe what has happened in a year.

Wow danm another boxer passes! Sad news, R.I.P.

Aw man, he was one of the prospects I was keeping my eye on. My thoughts are with his family, another awful loss this year. R.I.P

Im lost for words :(

Something must of went on for him to commit suicide. really am gutted about the loss of Darren. I remember tellin my mates in the pub to look out for him cos he is the future middleweight champion.

I can't believe it. :(

Yeah gotta agree with that one. It such a shame cos was looking forward to seein him fight DeGale in the pro ranks. Technically he was the most sound out of all of them. Its a shame we wont get see that because i would of loved to have seen him beat down that cocky cunt. I already dont like De Gale, he is extremely cocky imo.

They saying he killed himself!!! Am shocked.. RIP

This shit is awful....... Rip Sutherland. That guy was a future champ as well. :nonono:
