I was there the night Gabriel Ruelas TKO'd Jimmy Garcia in the 11th rd for the WBC super featherweight title. Cinco De Mayo weekend 1995. I was cheering for Ruelas but the last three rds many including my self were yelling to stop the fight. Garcia died 13 days later. from brain damage. For many years it bothered me that I cheered during the fight. So when fans boo a refs early decision to end a fight we should think of the alternative.

R.I.P. Champ......................Prayers

Very sad. Condolences to his family and all involved. It seemed like everyone did their best to help him the moment his head hit the canvas. Not the update anyone wanted to hear.

Choked up and at a loss for words here even though I know nothing I write will help anyone.

Rest well Patrick Day.

RIP Patrick Day.

I wonder if more boxers are dying, or more boxing deaths are now being reported? Because there has been a spike in boxing deaths if nothing has changed in the reporting of them. That’s very concerning. Out of any professional sport in the US, it has to be the most dangerous one right now. The major US athletic commissions, as well as the major sanctioning bodies, will have to get together to figure out what are they going to do about this.
