Alexis Arguello, Boxing Great Found Dead

[Iceta]

His performance against Ray Mancini is a classic example of why they need to go back to 15 round fights. You will be missed Alexis. God bless.

RIP champ. I have a great deal of respect for the skill Arguello showed in the ring. Beautiful to watch him operate. He was surgeon-like in the way he fought. Straight, precise, devastating punches. He could really take you apart. He's the greatest 130 pound fighter of all-time in my opinion.

Olivares
Escalera
Chacon
Navarette
Limon
CBE
JL Ramirez
Watt
Mancini

What a great resume spread across 4 weight classes.

He also talked about suicide in a book done in 1994 called "In this corner ... 42 world champions tell their stories" by Peter Heller.

I feel the exact same way he did. Fascinating article.

Wow, what unbelievable news... Considering that countries history between the Sandinistas and the anti-government agitators, I wouldn't be surprised if this was actually a murder.

R.I.P Alexis.

this is exactly what i said

i too believe this couldve easily been murder

[Papa Ace]

No Way !!

Im shocked when I saw this, but was more stunned on the alleged manner of his death. Damn. RIP

[lcheezy]

when i saw a erik morales fight i thought back to alexis arguello. R.I.P champ and may God bless you.

Sorry, killing yourself is an coward act. I was his fan, but I can't feel sorry for any crazy ***ers that kills themselves. A man will never kill himself, no matter how bad things can get at times.

Anyway RIP coward.

Whoever wrote that is not worthy of any responses. What pathetic excuse for humanity.

"Police have confirmed that Arguello shot himself through the heart and is dead"

It just sucks to see the end so many great fighters meet. RIP Alexis.
