      People were raising similar questions from the start.

      Incidentally, Pryor-Arguello was not Ring Magazine "Fight of the Year" as reported (that honor went to Chacon-Limon IV), despite indeed ironically being named "Fight of the Decade".

          Sulaiman for once makes a good point. I really hope the Nicaraguan authorities get to the bottom of what happened.

              No doubt, it looks like a political assassination. As such, I'd expect nothing less than a cover up.
