Onetime heavyweight contender “Smokin’ ” Bert Cooper died Friday after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer. Cooper was 53. The stout, strong Cooper made a name for himself in the heavyweight division during the early 1990s. Cooper lost to various heavyweight champions or former champions during that time – most notably Riddick Bowe, George Foreman, Evander Holyfield, Ray Mercer and Michael Moorer.

Wow. Sad to see this. Bert's fight with Holyfield as so much fun to watch.

Thanks for all the wars and memories, Bert.

R.I.P.
