Bert Cooper Battling Pancreatic Cancer

It has been known to happen, but it is exceptionally rare.

We basically know where this is going.

 

All the best to him. Prayers for him.

 

**** sake.
He's only 53.
God damn it

Bert was always inspirational to watch. I'll always remember that FIGHT with Holyfield.

Legendary.

 

Pancreatic cancer is bad, but some can do ok for a long time if the tumors can be controlled or localized, which is difficult since to get an image of the pancreas, you need to go into the stomach I think and most images are done after symptoms come up.Hopefully they caught it early and can focus on the tumor. He is young, so all the best to him. We all fear these things happening to people we know or ourselves. No one is immune to cancer. It is a scary thing.

 

He almost had him out. Anyone else he would have knocked out, but Evander has so much heart.

 

I thought Moorer vs Cooper was a very fun shorter fight to watch

 

An entertaining type of guy, and wild card who could pull off some good performances. He will be remembered by the hardcore fans whenever his time comes. Best of luck to Smokin' Bert Cooper as he faces his toughest opponent.

 

Has it happened though? And if so did it come back? Yep, doesn't look good for the fella.

 

Ahhh that's bad news.Some of my most entertaining heavyweight fight s of the 90 s involved Bert .
Cancers a ***** ..

 

Sorry to hear this. Bert has been one of my favorite heavyweights.

 

Sorry to read of his passing. I thought I would bump as this thread as it has some nice fights of his.

 

When did he die???
