    Cancer is a bad ended, a slow painful death.

    A lot of people die of cancer. It's not like he was murdered, killed in an accident or anything like that.

    I would say relatively happy compared to many other boxers. Died a hero having overcome his problems and lived pretty much a full life.

    Yes, I agree with you...Ross had a good life after overcoming his addiction and died years later in 1967..That is why I did not choose Ross, as his ending came many years later...

    Cancer is not something to take lightly, sure he didnt die in a plae crash or something like that, Ross was still a fairly young man when he past in 67, but the sickness was mostly eating his insides. It was not a happy ended.
