    Aww damn! Only ever lost to two future HOF's. Remember him against Floyd.

    Brave gutsy man in and out of ring. Was still involved in sport.

    I did hear he was struggling.

    RIP Chicanito

    Heard he was struggling a while back. Think a lot of his opponents raised some cash for him a while back. Mayweather DLH ( I think). Still sad to hear

    I remember him beating Azumah Nelson. What a courageous performance that was.
    Very sad news. RIP Genaro.
