      Diego Corrales was my favorite fighter in the early 2Ks and it was sad watching him get beat up by Clottey. He passed not long after which ****** even more. His wife said he practically had nothing in the bank.

        Vernon "The Viper" Forrest comes to mind as well.

        Arturo Gatti and Diego Corrales.

          The murder of Vernon Forrest was super upsetting for me.

            The day I came home from work and saw that Chico Corrales died, I was genuinely upset and a little choked up.

              I genuinely felt sad when Ali passed, also was shocked when corralles and Vernon Forrest died.

                    For me Arturo gatti and the lack of closure/mystery of his death I believe he was killed.

                    Diego Corrales the motor bike accident.

                    And he didn't die but Paul Williams becoming paralyzed made me feel bad for him although his great spirits in recovery and subsequent appearances show him with a smile on his face. Great character.

                      Didn't cry but it shocked me about his mysterious death.

                      R.I.P.
