pretty much confirms how much it is still a "white word" dispite what may be said.

And this is sad.

He was always hated on but the guy was skilled and tough as they come.

Loved that! He always looked like he was having a blast.

Puerto Rico's murder rate isn't even close to Mexico's.

Mexico is so much bigger I went on WIKI: homicide rate.
Puerto Rico per capita has a higher homicide rate. The top are places like Ivory Coast,Guatemala and Jamaica. Sad

Very sorry to hear this. I enjoyed watching him fight over the years. Loved his fight with Edwin Rosario in 1986.

Heartbreaking. I feel so bad for his parents. What a decision to have to make. Just heartbreaking.

3 of the 4 major arteries to the brain were severed by the gunshot. There is not activity in the Brain Stem thus indicate that he no longer has the ability to sustain life without a machine. He will be missed. One of the most colorful boxers of all time. May he rest in peace.
