He died in Nigeria several years later under strange circumstances. And there was no "ifs" about it, that''s what the fans did, just like when they spit on Jonny Owens as he was being carried out. Anyone who wants to know anything about The Kid, mI'll be glas to elaborate since I have done quite a bit of research and saw many of his fights live and up close in Las Vegas. "Pikin" Quiroga was murdered a few years later allegedly by a Bandido Biker. He was one of boxing true gentlemen and adored by his fans. The entire affair was a tragedy worthy of a screen play (hint hint).
