Is this the same Quiroga that died in a stabbing incident? How sad for both fighters.

 

Here's the Anifowoshe-Quiroga fight.

Yes it is. Quiroga was killed over a Movie Poster that he alledgedly stole from a member of a motorcycle gang (if I recall correctly).

 

Yeah, neither fighter was ever the same following that fight.

Really enjoying them, man. Keep it up.

 

What's crazy is that in Gaetan's previous fight, Hart's opponent, Ralph Racine, fell into a coma following the conclusion of the bout. McLean's magazine in Canada documented what occurred by putting Hart on the cover, with the rather unfortunate title of "Hands That Kill". :-(

 

Seconded. :good

 

This. Usually those posters have never been near a boxing ring much less inside one. It forever changes how you view boxing when you've done it yourself.

 

He comes through in the clutch sometimes... Great post, dude...
