    The boxer of origin of Montreal Arturo Gatti died. It was found lifeless in a flat from Porto of Galinhas to Brazil, according to the site of information Globo.

    Native of Italy, Arturo Gatti grew in Montreal-north. He lived in New Jersey for the duration of his professional career before coming back to Montreal, after his retirement.


    The local police considers the decease of the 37-year-old pugilist to be suspect, and opened an inquiry. The spouse of the boxer was Brazilian.

    His body would have been found early in morning.

    From a French site (not sure how reliable).
