    Edwin Valero, self-hanging (after killing his wife, in that imitating Billy Papke).
    Alexis Arguello, self-shooting.

      Darren Sutherland, though less remembered, also hanged himself according to the reports.

        Taking the OP literally - "killed themselves" put Ali and SRR on the list. One laid on the ropes too often, the other fought too long

        Both committed long term suicide, and thanks to Bundini Brown we know Ali knew what he was doing to himself.
