    Long shot but Spencer Fearon will add you on facebook and will respond to messages (he's amazing in person, too), so you could try dropping him a line; he might be able to ask someone to ask someone etc.

    TITO TIME:

    I understand your skepticism. His name is Alex Gustaferri. He died between 5-8 am on Monday at the age of 30. The funeral is this Saturday in Collingdale (right outside the city).

    I would pay whatever if that's what it takes. My name is Nick Colin. I sent you a personal email with my contact info.

    He was just the biggest fan of this guy. The has similiar backgrounds growing up in Philly. He was an orphan. Spent time in jail. Always tried to rise up like Bernard did.

    It might be in the local paper. I'll check on that. Otherwise, I swear on my life man.

    Thank you no matter what.

    PM Rumsfeld on here, add John David Jackson as Relentless said on FB aswell.

    Good luck man, I'm sorry to hear about your friend. 30 is no age to die, tragic.

    Best wishes.

    Nah, he brought the kid to the Calzaghe fight but he was too ill to go to the Pavlik one. He was on his last legs & barely had the strength to get out of bed but he woke up right before he fought Pavlik, watch Hop beat him down & died in his sleep following the fight. Really, really sad story, brings goosebumps

    As a born and bred Arkansan and Jermain Taylor fan, I found it easy to dislike BHop during that period of time when they were battling it out. I also didn't care for the "White Boy" stuff during the build up to the Calzaghe fight, but I've grown to appreciate what the man's been through, how he has reached the point he has, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for him as a man. It wouldn't shock me at all to hear of this a few months from now and him have actually done this for you. Good luck my dude, and condolances to you and the family of the young man who passed.
