Who was to blame for Billy Collins Jnr's Death?

[Violent Demise]

Billy Collins Jr. He the one who drove his car into a ditch.

[brocktonblockbust]

his death was no doubt in part atleast a result of what happened to him in the ring against resto. anyone who cannot connect those dots simply doesnt want to. having said that, resto and lewis DID NOT KILL him, he definitely drove his car all by himself off the road. what happened to him was 1 of the ugliest tragedies i know of in boxing, and i believe lewis and resto should both have served time for that....i beleieve i remember they DID in fact serve time. not only that i believe they both lost their licenses to do what they do. this i think is the proper punishment. i also think resto should have been given the right to box again after a certain time. i see lewis is still minimally involved in boxing. if anything lewis should have been banned for life in every way from boxing, not resto so much.

that story makes me really sick man, like physically nauseous. well dont we have a more modern version of this in margarito vs cotto why isnt margarito banned for life? and his trainer too? anybody have any news on that?

Cuz except for beating Cotto's ass they did nothing wrong

A little correction here...they were only caught trying to load wraps vs Mosley. Since that is the only proof admisable in the court of law that is why their sentences were so soft because it was based more on "attempt" rather than the actual assault that happened. I like many Cotto fans point to how Margarito has responded since being caught by the authorities and hell you can look at Luis Resto and he lost by KO 3 times in his career and lost 8 times overall and I think the KO's he lost were to fighters of equal or lesser stature as Billy Collins Jr.

I think Antonio Margarito as a boer is 100% finished, I don't want Cotto to fight him again just because of the money Margarito would be making, he's a despicable person and a disgrace to the sport.

As for Billy Collins Jr., his death was due to a number of things #1 He had an addictive personality #2 His father treated him as a prodigy (from Mozart to Pistol Pete Maravich to Todd Marinovich they are RARELY happy) #3 The injuries sustained in the fight with Resto.....that was the icing on the cake. His father's attitude, the beating he took, the prolonged time outside of the ring, that allowed him to drink more and there you have it. It was "the perfect storm" for tragedy.
