RIP Francisco Rodriguez

[amat]

This is really sad, RIP to him, that's really too bad. Of course it should serve as a stark reminder that as much as we bitch about fighters and who they are willing to fight, they are risking their life we should give them a bit more respect at times. Teon Kennedy is a guy who can put a lot of clean punches on you if you let him.

RIP Francisco Rodriguez and best wishes to his family and Kennedy aswell.

Just as an update on the situation, Rodriguez's family have decided to donate his organs, as he was obviously extremely fit, so that others don't have to go through what he did.

More on it is here at The Ring website

Rodriguez's organs give life after ring death

It also explains how donations can be given:

An account has been established to help ease the family’s medical expenses. Donations can be made at any Chase Bank location in America. You may deposit directly to the Francisco Rodriguez Estate fund account #707331062

I'm not too hot on how this works in the US, so would appreciate if anyone could give me any info on how we donate direct to the account so I can do so.

Thanks & once again RIP Champ.
