This sort of thing happens way too often. Vernon Forrest, now Augustus. Where is the public outcry? Terrible. Hope he pulls through and has medical insurance so is getting the best medical attention they can provide.

Sad day, wish him and the family the best. I hope they find that coward who shot him.

Terrible tragedy, one of my favorite and definitely one of the most entertaining. Hopefully he can pull through.

Sad news indeed, hope he can recover, he is a true warrior.

I grew up watching this guy and his fights were always competitive. One of the best fighters I've ever seen and who could have been a major player if he had the right team and support around him. He would take fights on a few days notice and give guys hell. Terrible news.
