    1. A man who ducked no one, fought Puritty, KBros, Sprott, Rahman, etc

    2. Exciting fighter, Great southpaw HW champion

    3. Please no negative or irrelevant comments about this great champion. He gave us boxing fans timeless memorable fights. Refrain from posting **** like "Thanks for beating the holy hell out of Wlad in 2." Very unnecessary and immature. It really sucks to see former champs go out like this. :-(

    4. RIP Champ. Hope he's in a better place now.

    Very underrated heavyweight. Buckets of talent and athletic ability, despite his often less than impressive physical appearance. One of the fastest and hardest punchers of the last few years. Great combination puncher. Check out some of his early fights.

    When I read it in the classics forum, I hoped it was a lame joke.
    Then I googl'd and it got confirmed.

    It just aint right.

    Does Sanders not carry a firearm with him while living in Pretoria, South Africa ?

    If I had Sanders money i'd be driving around in a tank

    What a terrible shame. Sanders featured in some very entertaining fights and was a decent fighter. I hope they find the scum that are responsible.

    For a while he added something fresh to the heavyweight division. Great fighter who was exciting to watch. It's a real shame his life ended like this.
    He will always be remembered for his stunning upset win in beating Wlad Klitschko in two electric rounds. :good
