    **** all this REST in Piece crap.

    you rest in piece if you have been dying a slow death, or were a troubled soul.

    if there was such a thing as resting in piece, Corrie Sanders wouldnt be doing it because he shouldnt be dead right now and certainly not for this senseless cowardly attack and in front of his family who watched in horror. sorry , RIP aint gonna cut it with this one...

    No need for your hate here. This is not the time, nor the place.
    Corrie was a class guy and a underated great heavyweight that could have caused nightmares for any of the past heavyweight champions including Foreman and Frazier. Lewis would have had a problem as well.
    Such a waste of great talent.
    Had he trained properly, he could have been a champ.

    R.I.P Corrie. A good fighter, a classy human being and a great role model for South African youths. You will be missed.

    Although this could have happened anywhere, violence is out of control in this country. And to the person that suggested he should have left the country...you're ignorant my friend. Is it that hard to believe that a white man living in an African country can't be patriotic or proudly African? Then you know nothing about the Afrikaner people. I'm white and proudly South African. Will die for this country I call home.

    SA's on its knees and done. I can totally understand those who can afford to getting the hell out...

    And agree with all the comments in this thread about Corrie Sanders. He earned his place in history. :good

    SA's not done and won't be as long as there are people believing in it. I don't give a **** what any foreigner says about SA. If you don't live here, who are you to judge or condemn a country because of a senseless killing. Name one country that such a thing has never happened? Unfortunate that it was an ex champ boxer yes. But innocent people die all over the world on a daily basis.

    Hey howzit!
    Good attitude my friend, the situation over there is one of the most difficult I have ever seen, however SA will never be done because people there, whether black or white, love their home country.
    SA needs to become a great role model for the other African countries.

    By the way, how was the reaction from S.Africans to Corrie's death? I believe most people knew him.

    There was a moment of silence during our rugby matches over the weekend. My brother was with me in the car when we heard it on the morning radio. My eyes got all teary and I got a lump in my throat, as did he. I've met him a few times.

    I can imagine that, he was a nice personality obviously.
    Klitschko manager Bönte played golf with him couple times and he said Corrie, as dangerous opponent he was inside the ring as likable person he was outside the ring.

    They made it a point to kill him. He didn't jump at them. No one else was shot, around 50 people at the party. If i was white I'd get the hell out of SA. Stuff like this: [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_African_farm_attacks[/ame] speaks for itself.

    London feels as safe as a little country village after you've been to SA.
