      We don't talk about this enough IMO. When we denigrate fighters and call them cowards we obfuscate this side of the sport. People die, people get hurt, and anyone that steps into that squared circle deserves our appreciation. It happend do quickly too, he definitely looked like one of the future studs of the sport.

          Very tragic.

          You can see how he's doing here.

          Hard video to watch. Marquez was 100% correct with his comments

            Happened to Mago, Eddie Gutnecht and now Colon. Very, very sad.

                Basically that these are the risks that boxers take and you never know when or to whom it will happen. Also that the ref did not take control of the fight with all these rabbit punches.

                Common sense that has to be said

                      He did look better there though, like he was somewhat aware of his surroundings, whereas the older videos he was totally unaware.
