    Here's a list I found on boxrec, so tragic, I'm sure this is far from a comprehensive list. I once heard that Eddie Futch witnessed 7 deaths in the ring..

    Does anyone know of a boxer who won a fight and died as a result of injuries shortly afterwards? I'm sure there have to be several

    Gaetan Hart, from Canada, I believe was involved in one, maybe 2 ring fatalities. He was on the cover of a magazine title with the headline "Hands That Kill" or something like that.

    Jess Willard killed a guy in the ring. Willard just did it for the money his heart wasn't into it.
