Tragic Irish boxer Darren Sutherland ‘had felt abandoned’ - More Sports, Sport - The Independent



Sad story.

Makes me start to wonder just how much pressure the promoters and managers are putting on their fighters to turn them into stars.. maybe they are pushing them too hard. It's a hard sport, I know.. but everyone has a breaking point.

Just terrible. Depression is nothing to underestimate.

Very very sad, these people need support but people only see the money.

Boxing - Unbelievable highs... yet unbelievable lows. Boxers need support and an arm round them to prevent such tradegies.
