Damn he was only 55 years old. 3 years older than me. I thought he was much older as it feels like he has been in the game forever. R.I.P. Champ.

RIP Brother Naz. Really hate to hear this. A good friend of mine ran into him in Missouri City (near houston) on thanksgiving or Christmas or something like that and they struck up a conversation about boxing at the dollar store! My friend told me Naz was so willing to talk and take time, even though he was down here for the holidays.

Hell yeah similar story - I randomly saw him walking around in Downtown LA with his son Rock Allen whom I kind of recognized ... and then it was confirmed when I noticed Naz standing there too. All I said was what's up Rock, what's up Naz and he just got right into talking boxing like I knew him.

Definitely a tough loss here. RIP Naazim

He seemed to be a class act in a dirty sport.

Rest In Peace, Mr Richardson
