    you cant say baer or fulmer "realy killed them". its an acccumulation of those fights, hard sparring too soon after a concusion, being regularly up against the odds after taken shots to the head since being a youngster. its wear and tear not murder. in short schaff and paret wound up on the wrong end of bad match making, being matched too hard in tough gruiling fights with not enough rest to recover suficiently.

    it would be fair to say paret got a career effecting beating from fulmer, he could never hope to be the same after that. By all acounts bear hurt schaff but he won fights after.
