      Whether or not he wanted to die, nobody will ever know.

      But he was on a pretty significant losing streak, and hadn't won a fight in 2 years.

      He was also too big to make 140 anymore, and too small to compete with anybody at 147.

      His life in the boxing game wa basically over at that point, and he was having a hard time accepting that.

      You could really hear it in his voice in the post-fight interview after the loss to Clottey.
      I hear ya man i he took so much punishment in the Clottey fight 1 has to wonder if that led to a suicide??
      His corner should have stopped that fight he took to many hard shots!

            ...It was just two days after the dreaded failure of "The World Awaits".

            And everybody here was still discussing that colossal suckfest.....

            Then I found out and for the only time that I can recall : I didn't care about boxing.

            I remember watching the "Friday Night Fights" tribute to him on "Ringside Remembers" as a single tear streamed down my cheek.

            I don't feel "connected" to many fighters, but Diego was definitely one of the few whom I did.

            His personality bled through the Television screen, and I just felt it when he was doing his thing in there.

            Goddamn I miss that guy......
