RIP Alexis Arguello

[CGM]

Who knows what went on between Arguello and his maker this day? I suppose from what I have read, he seemed to feel things very deeply. What a way for someone like that to go. He was widely respected, and he gave us all a lot. It's very sad.

I see nothing in print that it was suicide.

Very depressing news. Arguello was a superlative champion and an old school warrior. RIP champ.

THe report on fight news says a "self inflicted" gun shot wound. Thus he killed him self. Whether it was accidental, we have yet to find out.

I agree, until the facts are established.

Well I mean there are thousands of famous people if you considered business moguls, athletes, actors, artists, kids of famous people and people who are famous for no good reason. So I mean it really is no surprise that many die and some in what seems succession.

They had the chance to touch millions and had wealth/fame for awhile.......more than most of us will get. Hopefully they didn't waste the chance to help others.
