    Ditto, Freddy.

    A lot of people, even those who call themselves fans, don't realize that at least several fighters die in the ring every year. Which is part of why I get frustrated at people who laugh at stuff like Simon Brown being KO'd by Pettway, or screaming at the ref for stopping a fight when a guy has been massacred for 10 rounds straight.

    RIP Benjamin Flores. Vaya con dios.

    Seriously. Was wondering when I read about it if he didn't rehydrate after the weigh in or something.. apparently he wasn't even knocked down though he caught a bunch of flush shots to the head.


    Whatever the case, RIP
