      That's ruined my day.. He took a lot of **** from the Commies in Nicaragua.. At one time he was stripped of all his assets.. Hope this isn't what drove him to it... Jeeeez, he could'a come & stayed with me.. His whole career was legendary.. Great 70's fighter.. I bet Pryor's in bits... RIP GOODFELLOW....

          Its hard to take when you think how happy go lucky the guy was, you just wouldn't think he would of done something like this, but then again we dont know whay was going on in his private life that could of drove him to this.
          Who knows what inner turmoil he was going through? Hopefully some light will be shed on all this though: A true tragedy.

                  wow

                  i cant believe this, its horrible. ive heard tons of stories from family of his struggles with the sandinistas in the 70s-80s. they took away everything he had over in nicaragua and crazy **** like that

                  who knows what demons he was battling with

                  (by the way, i caught a glimpse of him when i was in nicaragua. they were doing some sort of a parade with the president (Daniel Ortega). arguello was in one of the vehicles behind the pres)

                      maybe he was murdered

                      forensics and the like arent exactly advanced over in Nicaragua so its very possible this is what happened
