why would that ruin the sport u ****ing dumbasses? valero killing his wife or even if he goes killing the entire venezuelan populaton has nothing to do with boxing. Only his fights matter in boxing.

If only it was that simple. If the media wants to, they could point out to Valero's head injuries despite of which he was still allowed to box, which to some extent may have affected his actions.

You're a dumb ass idiot, the news is already reporting **** saying that boxing is a violent sport and that is one of the reasons he killed his wife. They are already blaming boxing, genius.

When a similar thing happened with Wrestling/Chris Benoit it got huge coverage too and they tried to **** all over it, i hope they don't do the same to boxing.

This is exactly what I was thinking. After Benoit's death, the WWE got real strict with there drug policy. Some **** called the Wellness Policy. Boxing might do the same to save face

Its sad to see a boxing champ pass the way he did. It was even sadder to see how he lived his life outside of the ring. As much as I loved his tenacity in the ring and his bravado to even have his country and president tattooed across his chest I hated what he has become. A addict that took a young mother away from her children for good. He killed himself and may Allah SWT have mercy on his soul.

Won't hurt boxing in the least, the same way OJ Simpson did't hurt football.

What happened to Valero wasn't in any way related to boxing. If he would have died in the ring, then that might have been a different story.

Doctors said that years of wrestling and blows to the head could have caused Benoit to kill his family. Boxing is going to get a lot of bad press over this.

Strict?

They didn't change anything.
