    RIP, I'm in complete shock, even more so than when it was Arguello, Gatti or Forrest. He was by far the best out of the Olympians to turn pro. Actually saw him in Bromley town centre only a few months back & said good luck with his career, he seemed a really polite, cool guy, such a tragedy.

    Condolences to all his family & friends.

    Awful news, very very sad to hear. Thoughts and prayers with his family. Rest in peace Darren. Such a bright prospect and talent.

    Depression in athetes, particularly fighters, is something that needs to be adressed. Nicolas Cervera who also suffered from depression took his life too not long ago and Alexis Arguello too. Also countless others. Depression was also the major contributer to the deaths of many, many fighters over the year. This is something that has been going on for a while, but I dont want to see these tragedys happen anymore. Nobody does. As a fighter and a man, it is hard to be open to others about sad feelings and suicidal thoughts. There is a stigma attached to it in this culture. Men who suffer from depression generally become self destructive, rather than seek help. That should not be the case. Nobody should have to feel that way. That is why the percentage of males that attempt suicide sucessfully are staggering and a lot higher than females. This is a topic that needs to be put in the light and discreet resources should be available for people like Darren. Depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain that can be treated with the right medication/s and therepy. It is not a character flaw. Its not a personality type, and it does not define the man or women that it attacks. Its a problem that can be solved..in this lifetime.

    Exclamation Re: Darren Sutherland

    WHEN THE BRIGHT LIGHTS FADE TO BLACK

    After the bright lights of the Olympic stage,the light fades to black.

    After the roar of the crowd and the welcome home fades, the only
    three words left are rest in peace.

    DARREN SUTHERLAND - another tragic boxing story and his name is on the wall of the "Lost Warriors" with no time to say goodbye.

    Just found this video.

    Also apparently Darren had a bad eye injury and packed the boxing in for a 2/3 years after he was at the Ingle gym, he then did a a degree and decided to give the boxing another go again in 2004, the rest is history. He was also said to fall into a depression after the eye injury and thought he couldnt box again, i dont like to speculate but do you think the injury had come back??

    There might be a clue in his past. Three years ago Sutherland thought his boxing career was over after suffering a freak eye injury.

    He was fighting for Ireland against a Russian B team at the National Stadium in Dublin when his opponent accidentally caught him in the eyeball and fractured the socket in two places.

    "I was taken straight to hospital," he recalled last year, "where they saw that the muscle that moves the eye upwards was damaged so I couldn't move the eye. The hospital put like a plate in it and it's still there – it's not made of metal, but another substance to keep the eye strong."

    He was so conscious of looking cross-eyed, though, that he refused to leave the house. Contemplating a future without boxing, he fell into a depression, before doctors decided after six months that he was fit to fight again. It turned his life around

    This has got to be the worst year for deaths in the boxing business, even worse is the way they are going with the Forrest murder and Gatti murder/suicide. Bad times people!
