    Terrible news. Just terrible. Boxing has lost a great fighter and a great man. The word gentleman isn't enough to describe what type of person Alexis Arguello was.

    Rest in peace Champ.

    Oh my ****! I just came online and saw the first thing I saw was this truly horrendous news. I can't believe it, I'm feeling devastated.

    Rest in peace, you'll always be a champ. God bless, always and forever.
