Just got some horrible news that Benjamin Flores has died five days after he was hospitalized following a title bout with Al Seeger in Dallas. That's just awful.
He died at Parkland Hospital on Tuesday. Referee Laurence Cole awarded the victory to Seeger in the eighth round of the North American Boxing Federation fight on Thursday at the Hilton Anatole hotel. The Houston fighter was helped to his stool before lying down. Doctors rushed to his side and Flores appeared unconscious when removed on a stretcher. The fight was for the vacant NABF super bantamweight title. Flores was 19-3 and weighed 122 pounds
Rest in Peace warrior.
