    Benjamin Flores passes away.

    Boxer Benjamin Flores has died five days after he was hospitalized following a title bout with Al Seeger in a Dallas hotel.

    Bout supervisor Bob Lenhardt says the 25-year-old Flores died Tuesday at Parkland Hospital.

    Referee Laurence Cole awarded the victory to Seeger in the eighth round of the North American Boxing Federation fight Thursday night at the Hilton Anatole hotel.

    Lenhardt said the Houston fighter was helped to his stool before lying down. Lenhardt said doctors rushed to his side and Flores appeared unconscious when removed on a stretcher.

    The fight was for the vacant NABF super bantamweight title. Flores was 19-3 and weighed 122 pounds. Seeger is from Savannah, Ga.

            In the future... you might want to consider the time and place before saying something like this in the future.

              I say we just end him now and save the unnecessary stress later on.
