            RIP. Prayers go out to his family. A notable fighter to say the least, in his day.


            I really wish I could make jokes relating this to something like, "he read check hooks post history and had a heart attack" or something amusing, but that would be totally inappropriate.

            Hopefully it's nothing too complicated, that which revolves around the cause of his death, and I hope he was at peace with himself, God, and his family when he passed.
            Fighters really need to take better care of themselves, during, and after their careers.
