Now this is why I stopped boxing. Because of stuff like this to be brutally honest here. After hearing stories like this and others. Personally if I was the boxer who hurt the other guy in the ring that died I dont think i could ever box again thinking about that stuff. What your thoughts on this subject? Any other boxers who died in the ring?
Omar Chavez vs Marco Nazareth
I didnt know Marco Nazareth died in the ring. I didnt know who he was but isnt Omar Chavez good?
Yuji Kanemitsu vs Masatate Tsuji
Masatate Tsuji died like 3 days after the fight due to brain hemorage
George Fulljames, died after his bout with Tom Bannon in 1888 when he was knocked out in the first round.
In 1949, fighting for the Australian Lightweight Title, Archie Kemp died after being KO'd by Champion Jack Hassen. Kemp was a very talented boxer and his tragic death virtually destroyed Jack Hassens career. Hassen a dynamite puncher who was on his way to boxing greatness, he was one of the top contenders for the world title, but after the Kemp fight. Jack could never again bring himself to hit with full power, he faded from the sport a broken man. As an old man in a nursing home old Jack said that he never got over the tragedy.
Out of topic but...
Do you think OST will prevent those deaths inside the ring? :sad6:

The one that hurts to read about most is where the unbeaten prospect kept getting headbutted and cheated against and ended up dying because of that too. I can't remember their names but this was in britain. The one responsible(Salem) should rot in hell.
