Who else died?

[Terry A]

I read that James Broad had died about 10 years ago. What happened? Also, Monte Masters & Jeff Sims had died about the same time. Does anyone remember what they died of? I don't remember reading anything about these 3. I wonder how many others from that era have passed?

I don't know what the official cause of death was regarding Broad, Terry, but I have an article that came out shortly after he passed in 2001 and in it it states that Broad wasn't doing too well at all when died...

He was reported to be suffering from severe brain damage at the time of his death, apparently had some pretty bad alcohol addictions, and the worst of it all was that he was reportedly homeless, all by his lonesome, and living out his last days in a bus shelter down near Las Vegas.

What a way to go out. That's a sad thing to hear.

Thanks for the info, Yogi. Your posts are always insightful & informative.

It's hard to believe how so many in the fight game end their lives in squalor. Tyson, one of the richest ever, filed bankruptcy. How is this even possible???

Tyson spent his money on too much junk, plus he got less than what he expected because of King and the IRS.

Lots of fighters are exploited and get less of what they expect, and they tend to have too many hanger-ons that suck up their money like leeches.
